 Step-up
 New
 
7.2 Megapixel Super HAD™  CCD 
Higher megapixels gives you more 
detail and definition for large prints 
and cropping in on your subject. 
Sony’s advanced Super HAD (Hole 
Accumulated Diode) CCD design 
allows more light to pass to each 
pixel, increasing sensitivity and 
reducing noise.
Carl Zeiss® 12X Optical/2X Digital 
Zoom/24X Total Zoom
12X Optical Zoom helps the DSC-H5 
bring distant subjects closer and lets 
you frame shots for better 
composition; Sony’s precision 2X 
Digital Zoom provides an additional 
2X magnification to zoom in close 
without jagged edges.
57X Smart Zoom™  Feature  
Sony's Smart Zoom feature lets you 
magnify your subject beyond the 12x 
optical zoom - to 16x (5MP), 18x 
(3MP), even 57x (VGA). By intelligently 
cropping into the central portion of 
the scene, it avoids the image 
distortion of other digital zooms.
Super SteadyShot® Optical Image 
Stabilization
Super SteadyShot® Optical Image 
Stabilization fights motion blur, even 
during longer exposures at full 
zoom.
Flexible Exposure Modes
Choose Auto or Program Auto for 
convenience, or get creative with 
Aperture Priority or Shutter Priority 
modes. Manual Exposure Mode 
provides extended control with 46-
step adjustable Shutter speed (30 - 
1/1000 sec.), and Aperture control 
(F2.8 - F8.0).
Large 3.0” Clear Photo LCD Plus

with Sony’s Clear Photo LCD Plus 
technology for bright high 
contrast viewing -- with a one 
touch “ Play” button that makes it 
quick and easy to view your 
photos.
Simple Controls, Function Guide
User-friendly controls and simple 
on-screen Function Guide 
text/icon display help you set up 
camera functions -- and you’ll have 
greater creative freedom to adjust 
color mode (including “Natural” for 
subtle colors and “Rich” for more 
intense colors), sensitivity, 
brightness and image size.
High Sensitivity Mode
A new High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 
1000) allows you to shoot with great 
results in low-light conditions -- and 
Sony’s original Clear RAW NR™  (Noise 
Reduction) image processing 
technology helps suppress the color 
noise that can accompany high-
sensitivity shooting.
Stamina® Battery Power

Hydride (NiMH) rechargeable 
batteries, the DSC-H5 can capture up 
to 340 images per charge -- enough 
for a week of shooting. The compact 
BC-CS2 Battery Charger is also 
supplied for battery recharging on 
the go.

a flash memory card --then transfer 
your images to optional Memory 
Stick™  Duo media, upload to your 
computer or make prints on your 
digital printer.
Memory Stick Duo™  Media 
The DSC-H5 has a built-in slot for 
optional Memory Stick Duo™  or
