12.1 MP Super HAD™ CCD
With more megapixels than most digital
cameras, the DSC-W200 captures greater
image definition so you can make big prints
and tight crops without losing detail. The
advanced Sony® Super HAD™ (Hole
Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows
more light to pass to each pixel, increasing
sensitivity and reducing noise.
Carl Zeiss® 3X Optical Zoom Lens Design
A top-quality Carl Zeiss® 3X Optical zoom
lens design helps the DSC-W200 bring
distant subjects closer and lets you frame
shots quickly for better composition -- a
real advantage for family sports, outdoor
fun and travel photos.
Face Detection
By automatically controlling focus,
exposure, color and flash, this new Sony
feature reveals faces in shadow, makes skin
tones look more natural and eliminates
harsh facial glare -- to help bring out every
expression on every face in every shot, so
you’ll capture the personalities and
emotions that make memories come alive.
Ultra-High-Sensitivity (ISO 6400) Mode
At 3 MP resolution, you can shoot effectively
without flash even in very low light to
preserve the mood and capture fast action
at high shutter speeds -- with the Sony
Clear RAW™ Noise Reduction system to
take care of the picture noise that can ruin
low-light shots.
Super SteadyShot® Image Stabilization
With Super SteadyShot® Image
Stabilization, the DSC-W200 compensates
for shaky hands and minimizes blur with
optical sensors that detect camera
movement and send correcting signals to a
stabilization lens -- so there’s no need to
crop in on your shot to reduce blur.
HD Output
Thanks to Sony, your photo album can go
high-def -- with direct HD output1 to your
HDTV screen, so you can view DSC-W200 still
photos in spectacular high definition clarity
and detail. Your life never looked so
exciting!

HD Slide Show with Music
It’s the high-definition viewing experience
that makes photos come alive on HDTV
screens, accompanied by your choice of
visual effects and any of four preset musical
selections stored in memory or your
favorite MP3 tunes downloaded from PC to
your camera for use as background music.
9-Point Auto Focus
Because an off-center subject can make
your shot more interesting, the DSC-W200
can measure auto-focus precision at 9
points on your screen -- giving you greater
creative freedom to compose your image.
D-Range Optimization
Powered by the exclusive Sony Bionz® high-
speed processing engine, D-Range
Optimization preserves image data in
bright highlights and reveals more detail in
shadows or backlit areas -- for great results
even in difficult lighting conditions.
In-Camera Retouching
The DSC-W200 lets you add creative effects
to photos after you shoot -- including soft
edge filter to soften backgrounds, cross
filter to place starry “ dazzles” at highlight
points, partial color filter to mute
surrounding colors, even fish-eye filter to
create interesting fish-eye lens effects.
In-Camera Red-Eye Reduction
Irritating “ glowing eyes” can ruin even the
most creative photos -- so the DSC-W200
provides in-camera correction at the touch
of a button to reduce lingering red-eye
effect that other systems might miss.
Large 2.5” TFT LCD Screen
The DSC-W200 provides a large, bright 2.5”
TFT LCD screen that makes it easy to
compose shots, check results and read
menus even in bright sunlight as well as
view and share photos in sharp, natural
color.
