13.6 MP Super HAD™  CCD 
More megapixels give you 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
Professional Carl Zeiss® lens with 3x 
optical zoom (35mm-105mm ) brings 
distant subjects closer for great 
outdoor, sports, and travel photos.
2.7” Clear Photo LCD Display 
A large, bright 2.7” Clear Photo LCD™  
display includes an anti-reflective 
coating that provides for excellent 
visibility to help you compose, view, 
and share photos with superb clarity 
and color reproduction, even in bright 
sunlight.
Anti-scratch Premium Titanium body
The titanium coating on the body is 
approximately five times harder than 
anodized aluminium-treated camera 
bodies, offers excellent protection from 
scratches while offering a premium 
look.
Face Detection
Face Detection technology recognizes 
up to 8 faces and automatically 
controls focus, exposure, white balance, 
and flash to help reveal faces in 
shadows, make skin tones look more 
natural, reduce red-eye, and eliminate 
harsh facial glare, so your photos bring 
out every expression on every face in 
every shot.
Smile Shutter
Smile Shutter™  technology captures 
smiles the moment they happen - 
without the need to press the shutter. The 
mode can be set to capture when your 
subject laughs, smiles or even grins, 
and like Face Detection is able to 
differentiate children and adults to set 
priority.
Sony Double Anti-Blur Solution
The combination of Super SteadyShot® 
optical image stabilization and high 
ISO sensitivity helps compensate for 
shaky hands, minimizes blur, and allow 
flash-free shooting to preserve the 
mood.
Super SteadyShot® optical image 
stabilization
Super SteadyShot® optical image 
stabilization compensates for shaky 
hands and minimizes blur with a built-in 
gyro sensor that detects camera 
movement and sends correcting signals 
to a stabilization lens -- so there’s no 
need to crop in on your shot to reduce 
blur.
EXTRA High Sensitivity (ISO 3200) Mode
EXTRA High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 6400
) helps reduce blur when shooting 
indoors or at twilight, even without 
flash, so you can capture great-looking 
images even in less-than-ideal lighting.
Intelligent Scene Recognition Mode
Intelligent Scene Recognition mode 
automatically detects 5 different types 
of scenes and selects the appropriate 
camera setting: Backlight, Backlight 
Portrait, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, and 
Twilight using aTripod. Intelligent Scene 
Recognition has two different modes, 
advanced and auto. Advanced mode 
takes two shots, one with the standard 
automatic settings and the other with 
optimized settings. Auto mode takes a 
single shot, using the camera's 
intelligence to decide proper settings.
Dynamic Range Optimization Standard 
& Plus
Powered by the exclusive Sony BIONZ™  
high-speed processing engine, 
Dynamic 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.
