Features
12.1 Megapixel Super HAD™ CCD Image Sensor
A powerful 12.1 megapixel 1/2.3” Super HAD™ CCD image sensor helps you capture gorgeous
images with superb contrast and clarity down to the nest detail. With 12.1 megapixels, you can
create stunning, photo-quality prints up to A3+ (13x19”) size, or crop your images and still come
away with high resolution shots.
2.7” (230K dots) Clear Photo LCD™ display
Generous 2.7” (230K dots) Clear Photo LCD™ display
features sharp, natural color that makes it easy to compose shots, read menus, and view photos,
even in
bright sunlight.
Sony® Lens with 4x Optical Zoom and 26mm equivalent wide angle
The Sony® 4x optical zoom lens brings distant subjects closer for great outdoors, sports, and travel
photos. Thanks to 26mm equivalent wide angle of this lens you can also get great group shots in
tight spots.
Sweep Panorama™ mode
DSC-W510/B Camera w/26mm/4x optical zoom/12.1MP
Reach beyond the traditional wide angle lens, and capture more breathtaking shots with
Sweep Panorama™ mode. Simply press the shutter button and sweep the camera in the desired
direction and the camera continuously shoots at a high speed, then seamlessly stitches the
images together with automatic position adjustment to create one stunning panoramic image.
Available in wide and ultra-wide options, the camera can take panoramic shots of up to 231
degrees. Now capturing wide landscapes is as easy as press and sweep.
SteadyShot® image stabilization
SteadyShot® image stabilization compensates for camera shake and helps prevent blur through
use of digital processing technologies.
Intelligent Auto Mode
Unlike traditional auto mode, Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode thinks for you, recognizing scenes,
lighting conditions, faces, and adjusts settings resulting in clear images, faces with natural skin
tone and less blur. Take advantage of all the technology without leaving Auto mode. Kids on
the playground, landscape shots, a beautiful ower or an indoor birthday party; all result in clear
images without leaving auto mode.
Face Detection technology
Face Detection technology detects up to eight individual faces and adjusts focus, exposure, and
white balance to help deliver crisp, properly lit images of family and friends.
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 and
indicate the degree of Smile Detection sensitivity. Intelligent Scene Recognition 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 dicult
conditions such as twilight and backlighting.
480p AVI VGA Movie Mode
In 480p AVI movie mode the camera shoots 640 x 480 movies at 30 fps, a standard format when
working with a PC. Users will create movies with full use of optical zoom in les small enough
to transfer to compatible PC or Mac® computer. Once transferred to your computer and
connected to the internet you can eortlessly upload your media to popular photo and video-
sharing websites such as Photobucket® and YouTube™.
So Skin mode
Portrait subjects will love the results. So Skin mode recognizes skin tones and reduces the
appearance of blemishes and wrinkles without aecting the rest of the shot.
Natural Flash
Conventional point-and-shoot camera ash shots just don't capture colors the way the eye sees
them. Natural Flash mode takes a reference shot without ash and then uses that reference to
correct the color, for far more lifelike images.
Self-Portrait Timer
Self-Portrait Timer helps take the guesswork out of self portraits by utilizing Face Detection
technology to recognize when your face enters the frame. Once the camera detects your face,
it triggers a 2-second timer, and then snaps a picture.
Anti-blink Function
It’s frustrating to capture the perfect shot, 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 So Snap, the Anti-blink function captures two images, recording only the photo
with less squinting. If a blink is detected in other shooting modes, a warning will be displayed aer
you take the shot.

Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO) Standard and Plus uses a sophisticated algorithm to help
recover shadows and highlights. The result is more natural images with clearer details that more
closely match what your naked eye sees. DRO is particularly eective when shooting backlit
portraits or any scene with a dramatic contrast between background and foreground lighting.
DRO Plus allows for even greater optimization by analyzing each region of an image and
performing additional image processing.
Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode
Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode automatically detects eight dierent types of scenes
and, within just 1/30th of a second, selects the appropriate camera settings: Backlight, Backlight
Portrait, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Portrait, Landscape and macro. iSCN has two modes: Auto
and Advanced. In Auto Mode, the camera takes a single shot using the optimal settings. In
Advanced Mode, the camera takes a photo with the optimal settings and, if in dicult lighting
(low light or back light) immediately takes a second photo with another optimized setting so you
can choose which to keep.
High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 3200)
High ISO allows for faster shutter speed, so you can take photos indoors or in low light without the
need for a ash. In addition to High Sensitivity Mode (ISO), you can select up to seven ISO settings
(Auto, 125, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200) when shooting in Program Auto Mode to adjust sensitivity to
your shooting conditions.
Easy Shooting Mode
With Easy Shooting Mode, even beginners can take great photos. In Easy Shooting Mode, easy-
to-understand basic instructions are displayed on the LCD screen and the camera switches to
all automatic settings, removing several function choices and allowing you to focus on just your
subject. Since this mode works together with Intelligent Scene Recognition, the camera selects
the optimum setting for each scene. In addition the easy mode simplies preview mode.
In-Camera Retouching Tools
Retouch and enhance your photos on the go with in-camera Trimming, Red-Eye Correction, and
Unsharp Masking functions.
