screens out noise before RAW data 
conversion, handles Dynamic Range 
Optimization processing and prolongs 
battery life.

Dynamic Range Optimizer

areas of the picture, the Sony®

DRO Advanced Bracketing, that 
automatically creates three versions of 

the image captured at different DRO 
levels with a single shutter press.

Continuous 5 Frames-Per-Second 
Advance at 12.24 MP

dual mirror stoppers to prevent mirror 

bounce -- they all enable the
