9.1 Megapixel Super Exmor™  CMOS 
Image Sensor:

The HX1 features a 9.1 megapixel 
Exmor™  CMOS image sensor that 
brings out the full resolving power of the 
camera’s precision G-Lens to deliver 
extremely fast speed, high resolution, 
and stunning low-light sensitivity with 
improved image clarity and drastically 
reduced noise. With 9.1 megapixels, 
you can create stunning, photo-quality 
prints up to A3+ (13x19”) size, or crop 
your images and still come away with 
high resolution shots.

Professional Quality G-Lens:

Designed and manufactured to the 
highest standards of optical 
performance, the Sony G-Lens is 
optimized to perfectly complement the 
advanced image sensors and image 
processing technology in Sony’s 
cameras. G lenses are used in top of the 
line digital single lens reflex (DSLR) 
cameras and advanced pro-sumer HD 
Camcorders. Capture the action up 
close with the 20x optical zoom, and 
with the 28mm wide angle lens the HX1 
even allows you to capture more of the 
scenes in landscape or group portraits. 
The HX1’s G Lens has a six blade 
aperture capable of producing a 
beautiful bokeh (beautifully defocused 
backgrounds with a soft natural feel). 
The aspherical lens elements made 
from ED (extra-low dispersion) minimize 
chromatic aberration common to high-
magnification lenses.

20x High Zoom:

20x optical zoom extends your reach 
and helps bring you closer to the action 
– a real benefit for sporting events, 
wildlife, distant landscape views and 
dramatic portrait shots.

28mm Wide Angle Lens:

Widen your view and capture more of 
the city, landscape, or group with a 
28mm wide angle G lens.

3.0" Clear Photo LCD™  tilt display 
(230k pixels):

Compose and show off your images 
on the large 3.0” (230K) Clear Photo 
LCD Plus™  display, which tilts up or 
down approximately 90 degrees for 
easier high and low angle shooting 
and features a special anti-reflective 
coating for sharp visibility, even in 
bright sunlight.

CMOS Sensor:

Enjoy extremely high resolution, fine 
tonal gradation and fast speed that 
faithfully reproduces every detail of 
your subject and reduces visual noise. 
The Exmor™  CMOS sensor brings out the 
full potential of the lens to ensure clear, 
high-precession image quality.

BIONZ™  image processor: 

The BIONZ™  image processor delivers 
the high resolution and fast 
performance you expect from a Sony® 
digital camera.

Colors available in:

The Cyber-shot® DSC-HX1 camera is

High Speed Shooting (10fps):

The HX1 is the world’s first digital still 
camera that can capture full 9.1 
megapixel resolution images at up to 
10 fps, helping to ensure you never miss 
the decisive moment. What’s more, the 
HX1 employs a mechanical shutter that 
helps reduce distortion when 
continuously shooting moving subjects.
