The Sony® Cyber-shot® DSC-W220 combines point-and-shoot ease-of-use with advanced features in a 
sophisticated, compact design. Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) can recognize five different

up to eight faces and captures them naturally. In addition, Optical SteadyShot™  image stabilization 
helps to reduce blur for crisp, clear images.

 

 

 

12.1 Megapixel Super HAD™  CCD 
Image Sensor:

A powerful 12.1 megapixel 1/2.3” Super 
HAD™  CCD image sensor helps you 
capture gorgeous images with superb 
contrast and clarity down to the finest 
detail. With 12.1 megapixels, you can 
create stunning, photo-quality prints up 
to A3+ (13x9”) size, or crop your images 
and still come away with high 
resolution shots.

Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® Lens with 4x 
Optical Zoom:

The professional-quality Carl Zeiss® 
Vario-Tessar® 4x optical zoom lens 
brings distant subjects closer for great 
outdoor, sports, and travel photos.

30mm wide angle lens:

A wide angle lens (30mm-120mm) 
shows more of the scene you're 
shooting, helping you capture more 
complete images when shooting 
indoor group portraits, expansive 
landscapes, or architectural scenes.

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

Generous 2.7” (230K pixels) Clear 
Photo LCD™  display features sharp, 
natural color that makes it easy to 
compose shots, read menus, and view 
photos, even in bright sunlight.

BIONZ™  image processor: 

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

Auto Mode:

Auto Mode automatically adjusts 
exposure and white balance settings for 
better pictures, and can be enhanced 
further with a simple change in the 
settings menu. When Intelligent Scene 
Recognition (iSCN) and Face Detection 
are activated in Auto Mode, the 
camera goes a step further, 
automatically adjusting to scene 
conditions and capturing faces 
naturally. Whether you’re shooting 
landscapes, capturing playground 
action, or taking pictures at a birthday 
party or wedding shower, the intuitive 
Auto Mode will optimize your camera’s 
settings to help ensure you come away 
with a great shot.

Intelligent Scene Recognition:

Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) 
Mode automatically detects five 
different types of scenes conditions 
(Backlight, Backlight Portrait, Twilight, 
Twilight Portrait, and Twilight using a 
Tripod ) and within 1/30th of a second 
selects the appropriate camera 
settings:. iSCN has 2 modes: Auto and 
Advanced. In Auto Mode, the camera 
takes a single shot using the optimal 
settings. In Advance Mode, the camera 
takes a photo with the standard 
automatic settings and, in difficult 
lighting (low light or back light) 
immediately takes a second photo 
with optimized setting so you can 
chose which to keep.

Face Detection technology:

Face Detection technology detects up 
to eight individual faces and controls 
flash, focus, exposure, and white 
balance to deliver accurate, natural 
skin tones with reduced red-eye for 
beautiful images of family and friends. 
Face Detection technology can even 
distinguish between children and 
adults, so you can prioritize the 
camera’s focus on children in the scene 
for clear images of their memorable 
moments.

Smile Shutter™  technology: 

The popular Smile Shutter™  technology 
automatically detects and captures a 
smiling face. Simply activate by 
pressing the Smile Shutter button and 
the camera will capture a smile the 
moment it happens. You can also 
select subject priority (Adult or Child 
Priority or touch subject on screen) and 
indicate the degree of Smile Detection 
Sensitivity to high (small smile), 
medium (laugh) or low (grin). Smile 
Shutter also makes a great substitute for 
the self timer. Just smile once everyone 
is ready, and the camera will 
automatically capture the shot.
