Key Features
------------
18.2 Megapixel Exmor R CMOS Image Sensor
----------------------------------------
The 18.2MP Exmor R CMOS sensor captures ultra-high definition
images that take full advantage of the camera’s sharp Sony G
lens. The sensor enables advanced processing that reduces noise
levels, resulting in stunning low light images with incredible
details.
High speed AF
-------------
To improve focusing speed and sensitivity, the Exmor R CMOS
sensor uses its rapid throughput to deliver high-quality image
signals to the camera’s BIONZ processor. The result is fast,
DSLR-like focusing speeds, even in low light.
Optical zoom plus Clear image zoom
----------------------------------
Most digital zooms use electronic cropping to get closer to the
subject, resulting in unsharp images. With Clear Image Zoom the
powerful processor compares patterns found in adjacent pixels and
creates new pixels to match selected patterns, resulting in more
realistic, higher-quality images. Clear Image Zoom doubles
optical zoom for closer photos.
Full HD 1080/60i
----------------
Record crystal clear movies at the highest resolution available
with capabilities for 60i in 1080 AVCHD video.1 This provides
stunning, fast motion video with less distortion for playback on
your HD TV.2 With dual record of stills and movies, you can shoot
both at the same time.
Capture the decisive moment with up to 10fps
--------------------------------------------
Capture full 18.2 megapixel resolution images at up to 10 frames
per second, helping to ensure that the decisive moment is
captured such as the soccer ball flying into the goal. In
addition, a mechanical shutter helps reduce distortion when
continuously shooting moving subjects.
Optical Steady with Active Mode
-----------------------------------
Optical Steady with Active Mode for blur-free movies even
while walking.4 Camera-shake compensation using Optical
Steady/Active Mode has been improved with the addition of new
electronic image stabilization.Now it’s easier than ever to
obtain sharp, blur-free movies even when zooming in unsteady
situations, such as shooting with one hand while walking.
3D still image and 3D Sweep Panorama mode3
------------------------------------------
Produce awe-inspiring images with 3D still image and 3D Sweep
Panorama capabilities.3 Photos will take on a new dimension of
creative capabilities for viewing the world in a whole new way.
Background Defocus
------------------
DSLR photographs are often beautiful because they blur the
background, putting the emphasis on the subject. Now our
point-and-shoot cameras can deliver this signature DSLR benefit.
The system takes two s, identifies the background and applies
a defocused background keeping the subject crisp and clear.
Picture Effect for more expressive photos
-----------------------------------------
Picture Effect adds a new level of expression to photos, making
ordinary landscapes and portraits come to life by heightening
mood and emphasizing certain attributes. Select camera models
have up to nine different effects.
Photo Creativity
----------------
Photo Creativity allows you to fine-tune your exposure settings,
such as brightness, color, and vividness, and quickly choose the
right enhancement for your subject. Now you can view Picture
Effects and Photo Creativity effects in real time on the camera’s
monitor or in the viewfinder before shooting.
Superior Auto mode
------------------
Get cleaner, more dynamic pictures and fewer missed s. The
DSC-HX10V automatically recognizes the correct scene mode, then
quickly shoots and combines up to six s to produce images
with greater clarity, optimum dynamic range using backlight
correction HDR technology and lower image noise using 6 s
layering technology. Superior Auto intelligently detects 33
scenes for still images and movies, making it easy to get the
best .
Face Detection technology
-------------------------
Face Detection technology recognizes faces and optimizes camera
settings for both video and still images, so faces are captured
more clearly and skin tones look more natural.
Smile Shutter technology
------------------------
Smile Shutter technology captures a smile the moment it happens.
Simply press the Smile Shutter button and the camera does the
rest. You can also select adult and child priority andindicate
the degree of Smile Detection sensitivity. Intelligent Scene
Re can now be used together with Smile Shutter mode when
the Intelligent Auto mode is on. This means that beautiful smiles
can be captured with settings optimized for the particular scene,
even in difficult conditions such as twilight and backlighting.
GPS and Compass
---------------
GPS and compass record location data and camera direction as you
shoot movies and photos. GPS Log lets users track a photographic
journey and later view the path and images on a . View in
“PlayMemories Home” software, allows users to view images on a
showing where they were taken. The logged path and images can
also be displayed on Google Earth.
Anti-blink Function
-------------------
It’s frustrating to capture the perfect , only to review it
later and discover subjects blinked during the photo. The
Anti-blink function works to help counter blinking and squinting.
When the camera is set to Soft Snap, the Anti-blink function
captures two images, only the photo with less
squinting. If a blink is detected in other shooting modes, a
warning will be displayed after you take the .
Soft Skin mode
--------------
Portrait subjects will love the results. Soft Skin mode
recognizes skin tones and reduces the appearance of blemishes and
s without affecting the rest of the .
Intelligent Scene Re (iSCN) Mode
-----------------------------------------
Intelligent Scene Re (iSCN) Mode automatically detects
33 different types of scenes and, within just 1/30th of a second,
selects the appropriate camera settings. iSCN has two modes: Auto
and Advanced. In Auto Mode, the camera takes a single using
the optimal settings. In Advanced Mode, the camera takes a photo
with the optimal settings and, if in difficult lighting (low
light or back light) immediately takes a second photo with
another optimized setting so you can choose which to keep.
Natural Flash
-------------
Conventional point-and-shoot camera flash s just don't
capture colors the way the eye sees them. Natural Flash mode
takes a reference without flash and then uses that reference
to correct the color, for far more lifelike images.
Motion Detection
----------------
Motion Detection, along with Face Motion Detection adjusts ISO
sensitivity and increases the shutter speed when movement is
detected, reducing blur in moving subjects and faces.
Sweep Multi Angle mode
----------------------
In Sweep Multi Angle mode, the DSC-HX10V takes 15 images at
different angles as it sweeps across the scene. By tilting the
camera during playback, the camera’s Gyro Sensor detects motion
and displays the image in a 3D-like view on the camera’s LCD.
