KEY TECHNOLOGY
Battery Stamina
Digital still cameras and Handycams are portable
devices. As in any portable device, battery life
or stamina is critical. Strangely, battery stamina
is often overlooked when purchasing a camera
or Handycam. However, once the camera is
being used, a buyer soon realises how important
battery life is to the usefulness of the camera – it
can greatly affect product satisfaction.
It’s often forgotten that the camera, not the
battery, is what dictates power consumption.
Sony Handycams and Cyber-shot cameras
incorporate efficient processors, which enable
amazing battery stamina.
All Sony Cyber-shot cameras incorporate Sony’s
Real Imaging Processor (RIMP), designed to
deliver the ultimate operating efficiency,
resulting in exceptional battery life.
InfoLITHIUM Batteries
All Sony Handycams and selected Cyber-shot
Digital Still cameras feature InfoLITHIUM
battery technology which accurately displays
the remaining battery life in minutes. Each
InfoLITHIUM battery features a microprocessor
that allows real-time communication between the
camera and the battery. This accurate minute
system lets you rely on your battery display so
you always know how much time you have left
to use your camera. Never guess again!
Sony Handycams also have a Display Battery
Info button. This shows the battery status without
even having to switch the Handycam on.
Battery Info Display on Handycams allows
you to check battery charge without turning
the Handycam on

Carl Zeiss Lens
One of the most important parts of any camera (video or still) is the lens.
Almost all Sony cameras incorporate lenses from one of the world’s best
lens manufacturers – Carl Zeiss. These lenses minimise reflection and
allow clean, distortion-free light to pass into the camera. This results in
superb, sharp images with excellent colour reproduction. These benefits are
particularly obvious in low-light conditions as are often found indoors.
Some models also incorporate Carl Zeiss T* coating which reduces lens
flare (glare) by up to 82 percent. T* coated lenses are ideal in sunny
conditions and all but eliminate repeated ghost spots on images.
