Sony's MVC-CD500 Digital Still Camera also features massive 5. 0 megapixel resolution with a Carl Zeiss Vario Sonnar 3X optical/2X Smart Zoom lens and the ability to write to inexpensive optical media. The incredible photos and MPEG video clips you take are saved directly to 156MB CD-R/RW media, measuring only (8 cm) in diameter and readable on most CD-ROM equipped PCs. This incredible camera features a broad range of advanced features such as Multi-Point AF (Auto-Focus), Hologram AF, Continuous AF Mode, Multi-Pattern Metering, Pre-Flash Metering, and an advanced shoe for your flash attachment. Giving you all you need to create the most compelling images you've ever seen. 1/1. 8" 5. 0 Megapixel Effective Super HAD CCD Super HAD (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCD's provide excellent image quality by allowing more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise. Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar Lens Famous for sharpness & color accuracy, the Vario-Sonnar 3X Optical zoom lens features 7 elements in 8 groups with 2 aspheric elements. Its fast f2. 0 aperture is great for low light shooting. 0 - 4. 0 Smart Zoom (at VGA size) Smart Zoom intelligently uses the full CCD to let you zoom into the portion of interest by cropping the image sizethus avoiding the image degradation of Digital Zooms. 5 Area Multi-Point Auto Focus Evaluating 5 separate areas of the frame, Sony's Multi-Point AF system intelligently focuses on the subject and displays the selected focus point. Alternately, choose any of the 5 points for manual control. Hologram AF Illuminator Projecting a Class 1 laser pattern, Hologram AF reads the contrast between the pattern's edge and the subject for precise focus, even in low or no light. Continuous Auto Focus To maintain accurate focus lock with fast moving subjects, Continuous AF keeps focusing until the moment of exposure. Multi-Pattern Measuring Independently light-metering 49 points of the frame, Multi- Pattern Measuring establishes the optimum exposure, even when highlight and shadow isn't centered in the frame. Recordable CD Media CD Mavica cameras shoot directly to 156MB CD-R/RW discs, so there's room for hundreds of images and movie clips. The optical disc also provides "instant archiving" there's no need to transfer to the PC as with flash media. Slow Shutter Noise Reduction During long Twilight mode exposures, Slow Shutter NR captures the scene, and then the CCD noise pattern with a dark frame exposure. By subtracting the two, even long exposures can be clear. 14-Bit DXP A/D Conversion Sony's 14-bit Digital EXtended Processor captures the range between highlight and shadow with up to 16,384 values, for extended dynamic contrast and detail. Manual Exposure Controls Flexible Exposure control is provided with Aperture Priority, Shutter Priority and Manual Exposure modes. Program Shift lets you select aperture/shutter speed combinations for direct control of motion and depth of field, while still in Program AE mode. |
