18.2MP Exmor
®
R CMOS sensor
The 18.2MP Exmor
®
R CMOS sensor captures ultra-high definition images that take full advantage
of the camera’s sharp Sony
®
G lens.The sensor enables advanced processing that reduces noise
levels more than other sensors, resulting in stunning low light images with incredible details.
High speed AF
To improve focusing speed and sensitivity, the Exmor
®
R CMOS sensor uses its rapid 240fps
throughput to deliver high-quality image signals to the camera’s BIONZ
®
processor. The result is
fast, DSLR-like focusing speeds, even in low light.
Optical zoom plus Clear image zoom
Clear image digital zoom maintains a high-resolution feel that is as precise as optical zoom and
vastly expands the zoom range without lowering visible quality or pixel count in the final image.
With By Pixel Super Resolution processing, the camera’s 10x optical zoom range is extended,
allowing full resolution 18.2MP images with a maximum 20x zoom.

Camera-shake
compensation using Optical SteadyShot/Active Mode has been improved with the addition of
new electronic image stabilization. Now it’s easier than ever to obtain sharp, blur-free movies
even when zooming in unsteady situations, such as shooting with one hand while walking.

Picture Effect
Picture Effect adds a new level of expression to photos, making ordinary landscapes and portraits
come to life by heightening mood and emphasizing certain attributes. Select camera models
have up to nine different effects.
Intelligent Sweep Panorama™ HR mode
With Intelligent Sweep Panorama™ HR mode just press the shutter, pan the landscape and let
the camera do the rest. It automatically links together each frame to produce a high resolution
panoramic image providing the ability to zoom in on small details. This model even detects
faces and moving subjects to stitch intelligently different widths to help avoid subject distortion.
Background Defocus
DSLR photographs are often beautiful because they blur the background, putting the emphasis
on the subject. Now our point-and-shoot cameras can deliver this signature DSLR benefit. The
system takes two shots, identifies the background and applies a defocused background keeping
the subject crisp and clear.
