Vario- Tessar ® 4x optical zoom lens

shoots close- ups up to just under ½”
from the subject. A wide angle of
25mm equivalent wide-angle lens
allows you to take wider shots of the

Easy Touch Screen Interaction
The DSC-TX7 offers intuitive functions to
the multi- purpose touch screen, such as
the ability to select the focus point with
a simple touch, scroll through images
by sliding your finger across the screen
and one- touch access to the MENU. The
display also features improved
readability with list view and index
view.
Anti -Motion Blur Mode
Capture cleaner and sharper images in
low light for non landscape shots. When
set in Anti -motion Blur Mode, the DSC-
TX7 captures six images in a fraction of
a second with higher shutter speed and
combines the data from all six to create
a single image of extraordinary detail
and eliminate subject blur, beyond the
capability of traditional cameras.
Handheld Twilight
Capture cleaner and sharper night shots
without using a tripod. When set to
Handheld Twilight Mode, the DSC- TX7
captures six images in a fraction of a
second with one press of the shutter,
and combines the data from all six to
create a single image of extraordinary
detail and low noise. With these modes,
you can capture images in low light,
without flash, beyond the capability of
traditional cameras.
Intelligent Sweep Panorama Mode
Capture expansive landscapes with
Intelligent Sweep Panorama Mode.
Press shutter and sweep and the camera
does the rest, continuously, shooting
images and in one second stitching
them together. This model even detects
faces and moving subjects to stitch
intelligently different widths to help
avoid subject distortion.
Backlight Correction HDR
Shooting high- contrast scenes can often
lead to washed out backgrounds
and/or details lost in shadow.
Backlight Correction HDR helps correct
for this by taking two pictures at
different exposure settings and
processing the best elements of both
into a single image for more natural
looking shots.
High speed shooting
The DSC- TX7 can capture full 10.2
megapixel resolution images at up to
10 frames per second, helping to ensure
that you capture the decisive moment
such as the soccer ball flying into the
goal. In addition, the DSC-TX7 employs
a mechanical shutter that helps reduce
distortion when continuously shooting
moving subjects.
1080i AVCHD Movie Mode
Record movies in 1080i AVCHD high
definition at 60i . The AVCHD format
captures a high degree of detail and
smooth movement, and when footage
is burned to disc, can be played back
on Blu-ray Disc™players, Sony®
PlayStation®3 systems and compatible
PCs and HDTVs The convenience
Movie start/stop icon makes it easy to
access this mode via touch screen.
