body, preserving the ultra-slim styling of the Sony
DSC-T30.
• Capture Images In-Camera
With 58 MB Internal Memory, the Sony DSC-T30 allows
you to shoot photos without a flash memory card -- so

portion of the scene, it avoids the image distortion
of other digital zooms.
• Sleek Styling, Ultra-Slim Dimensions

-- an amazing demonstration of how much image resolution
and high-tech performance can be incorporated in a camera
that’s only about the size of a credit card.

Press Release
Sony
Press Release , –
SAN DIEGO, April 5, 2006 — Sony is building up its arsenal
of anti-blur, digital still cameras to help people who are
out on the town win the fight against blur with the introduction
of the new 7.2-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-T30 model.
“When people are out having a good time, they don’t
want to spend it learning how to avoid taking blurry pictures,”
said James Neal, director of marketing for digital imaging
products at Sony Electronics. “We’ve engineered
our flagship T-series camera with intelligent, automatic features
so people can spend more time having fun and less time understanding
technology.”
No More
Buzz Kill
Everybody’s feeling the vibe and you want a group shot
before leaving dinner or the party. Don’t make everyone
pose and re-pose, smiling as if they’re suffering from
lock jaw, while you take shot after shot trying to get a good
picture.
Equipped with double anti-blur protection, you can press the
DSC-T30 model’s Super Steady Shot® optical image
stabilization and high-sensitivity mode buttons in seconds,
and reduce the chance of taking a blurry picture the very
first time – especially in low-light conditions.
The Super
Steady Shot technology minimizes blur caused by shaky hands,
while the new camera’s high light sensitivity (ISO 1000)
mode reduces blur resulting from shooting at faster shutter
speeds. There’s even added defense with Sony’s Clear
RAW™ noise reduction system, which kicks in to counter
picture noise associated with high-sensitivity shooting.
These technologies
make the camera ideal for shooting in low-light conditions,
such as restaurants, bars and clubs. Combined with its stylish
finish and svelte dimensions, the DSC-T30 camera is the perfect
accessory for even the most discerning “fashionista.”
Armed with
features for optimal shooting and sharing, the new camera
with its Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® 3x optical zoom
lens combines power, portability and distinctive playback.
Its slide show with music function is ideal for viewing on
the camera’s three-inch, Clear Photo LCD Plus™ screen.
This is
Sony’s first T-series model to feature selectable color
modes. Choose natural mode for subtle color variations or
vivid mode for more intense colors, depending on how you want
to preserve the mood from your night on the town.
Sony’s
ultra-fast Real Imaging Processor™ circuitry increases
the camera’s efficiency for quicker start-up, faster
shot-to-shot times, higher-quality movie capture, and longer
battery life. Its supplied InfoLithium® battery provides
plenty of power – up to 420 shots per full charge. That’s
nearly double the performance of previous T-series models.
The camera
has 58MB of internal memory, just in case you forget your
memory card. Its capacity can be expanded up to two gigabytes,
however, with an optional Memory Stick Duo™ media card.
The Cyber-shot
DSC-T30 camera will be available next month for about $500
US.
The camera
is supplied with an InfoLithium battery, battery charger,
multi-connector cable, wrist strap and software CD-ROM. Optional
accessories include a travel charger (BC-TR1, about $60 US),
Cyber-shot Station (CSS-TNA, about $80 US), a marine pack
(MPK-THC, about $200 US), and a genuine leather cover (LCJ-THA,
about $40 US).
Make
the Most of High-Resolution Images through Prints
This new high-resolution camera is ideal for making high-quality
prints. When you connect it to a Sony DPP-FP50 digital photo
printer, you can create prints, postcards, or even calendars
using the printer’s supplied software.
And with Sony’s ImageStation® online photo service,
you can expand your options to print tens or even hundreds
of pictures, create online photo and video albums, or make
customized gifts such as photo books and calendars.
