High-Power Carl Zeiss® 15X Optical 
Zoom

A superb lens for bringing long-distance 
subjects up close, the pro-quality Carl 
Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® lens design of the 
DSC-H7 provides 15X Optical zoom 
design -- with 25X HD Digital zoom to 
enlarge the center portion of the picture 
so you see even more detail.

8.1 MP Super HAD™  CCD 

More megapixels give you more detail 
and definition for editing, cropping, 
and making large digital prints. Sony’s 
advanced Super HAD™  (Hole 
Accumulated Diode) CCD design 
allows more light to pass to each pixel, 
increasing sensitivity and reducing 
noise.

HD Output

Thanks to Sony, your photo album can 
go high-def -- with direct HD output to 
compatible HDTV screens, so you can 
view DSC-H7 still photos in spectacular 
high definition clarity and detail. Your 
life never looked so exciting!

HD Slide Show with Music

It’s the high-definition viewing 
experience that makes photos come 
alive on compatible HDTV screens, 
accompanied by your choice of visual 
effects and any of four preset musical 
selections stored in memory or your 
favorite MP3 tunes downloaded from 
PC to your camera for use as 
background music.

Face Detection

By automatically controlling focus, 
exposure, color and flash, this new Sony 
feature reveals faces in shadow, makes 
skin tones look more natural and 
eliminates harsh facial glare -- to help 
bring out every expression on every face 
in every shot, so you’ll capture the 
personalities and emotions that make 
memories come alive.

High Sensitivity Mode

With Super SteadyShot® image 
stabilization to minimize blur, High 
Sensitivity Mode (ISO 3200) lets the 
DSC-H7 shoot effectively in low light 
without flash to preserve the mood -- 
and Sony’s original Clear RAW™  NR 
(Noise Reduction) image processing 
technology helps suppress the color 
noise that can accompany high-
sensitivity shooting.

Advanced Sports Mode

To capture fast-moving subjects in split-
second detail, the DSC-H7 provides a 
Sports shooting mode that combines 
high shutter speed (up to 1/4000 sec.) 
that responds more quickly to rapid 
motion -- a great way to catch the 
perfect moment in sports, children’s 
games, pet tricks and more.

Long-Distance Flash

A powerful flash provides extra 
illumination to light up subjects farther 
from your camera, with precise light 
control and the ability to adjust flash 
for both front and rear sync when 
shooting at low-speed sync setting.

Super SteadyShot® Optical Image 
Stabilization

Other image stabilization systems crop 
in to compensate for “camera shake” -- 
but with the Super SteadyShot® system, 
optical sensors detect camera 
movement and send correcting signals 
to a stabilization lens that allows even 
ultra-long-distance digital photos to 
capture more detail with less camera 
shake distortion.

9-Point Auto Focus

Because an off-center subject can make 
your shot more interesting, the DSC-H7 
can measure auto-focus precision at 9 
points on your screen -- giving you 
greater creative freedom to compose 
your image.

D-Range Optimization

Powered by the exclusive Sony Bionz™  
high-speed processing engine, D-Range 
Optimization preserves image data in 
bright highlights and reveals more 
detail in shadows or backlit areas -- for 
great results even in difficult lighting 
conditions.

In-Camera Retouching

The DSC-H7 lets you add creative effects 
to photos after you shoot -- including 
soft edge filter to soften backgrounds, 
cross filter to place starry “dazzles” at 
highlight points, partial color filter to 
mute surrounding colors, even fish-eye 
filter to create interesting fish-eye lens 
effects.

In-Camera Red-Eye Reduction.

Irritating “glowing eyes” can ruin even 
the most creative photos -- so the DSC-
H7 gives you in-camera correction at 
the touch of a button to reduce 
lingering red-eye effect that other 
systems might miss.
