communication with the PCS-XG80. Powerful, affordable, and compact – the PCS-XG80 achieves
1080i HD video quality, making your daily business communication style more effective,
productive, and comfortable.
With approximately four times more detail than standard-definition (SD) images, the exceptional
HD video quality of the PCS-XG80 takes your visual communications to the next level. The HD video
quality provided by Sony not only enhances your daily videoconferences with life-like images, but
also lets you see details that were not before visible with SD systems – which is especially useful for
applications such as product design conferences. What's more, the HD camera of the PCS-XG80
adopts the Sony developed BrightFace™ technology, which produces clear images even when
used in rooms with less-than-ideal lighting conditions. The unit also features clear and natural-
sounding stereo audio, allowing you to hold videoconferences with “real communication” as if
you were talking in the same room.
