Sony Launches DSC-W190 and DSC-W180 Cybershot W Series Cameras. The Sony W180 offers 10.1 megapixel resolution while W190 offers a high resolution of 12.1 effective megapixels. Both feature a 3x optical zoom lens and 2.7-inch Clear Photo LCD respectively. With smart zoom, maximum magnification to a frame-filling 18x for W190 and 17x for W180 for dramatic close-ups, says the company.
The features of these cyber shots are:-
- Face Detection allows the cameras to easily detect up to 8 faces in a scene and automatically adjusts focus, exposure and white balance.
- Digital SteadyShot reduces the effects of camera shake by recording two images in rapid succession and then superimposing the images to reduce the appearance of camera shake. With Smile Shutter activated, you can simply focus on a face and the camera shoots automatically when the person within the frame smiles.
- A high sensitivity mode of up to ISO 3200 also eliminates blur when shooting in dimly lit environments or when capturing fast-moving subjects.
- The new W series also offers seven scene selection modes: High Sensitivity, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Landscape, Soft Snap, Snow, and Beach, that adjusts and optimizes camera settings automatically for the users environment, making beautiful images easier to capture.
- With drag-and-drop style, users can easily transfer their images and videos onto their computers via USB.
- In addition, the new cameras are bundled with Picture Motion Browser ver. 4.2.01 software for effortless photo and video management.
One of the new functions available in this version is eDeco, which allows users to easily add unique, mood-enhancing elements to their photos and videos. This includes matching photo frames, background music, text and sound effects. Another new feature is Movie Tracer, which allows the user to construct breathtaking panoramic images using a combination of movie frames. The new Cyber-shot W series cameras will be available at Sony authorized dealers and national retail partners across the country at Rs. 8,990 for DSC-W180 and Rs. 9,990 for DSC-W190.
