images with drastically reduced grain. 
Be sure to catch all those 
once-in-a lifetime moments
The DSC-TX5 can capture up to ten full 10.2 
megapixel resolution images per second. 
So now you can be sure to capture the bat 
hitting the game-winning homerun, the lead 
runner crossing the fi nish line, and other 
decisive moments. The camera also uses a 
mechanical shutter to help reduce distortion 
when continuously shooting moving subjects. 
Capture breathtaking 
panoramic shots
Intelligent Sweep Panorama mode lets 
capture stunningly expansive shots with 
ease. Simply press the shutter button and 
sweep the camera horizontally or vertically 
over your desired scene. The camera shoots 
continuously at a high speed, automatically 
adjusts the position of each image, then 
seamlessly stitches up to 100 pictures together 
into one panoramic photo of up to 258 
degrees. This model even detects faces and 
moving objects, intelligently stitching subjects 
of different widths together to minimize 
distortion. With the DSC-TX5 you can even take 
these panoramic images under water or, get 
even more creative, and take shots partially 
above and below water while you sweep.
