 Sony DSLR-A100 camera - Stabilization
The Sony Alpha A100 camera is engineered to combat blurry pictures through high light sensitivity (up to ISO 1600) and Super SteadyShot image stabilization, a Sony technology that shifts the image sensor to compensate for camera movement. Because Super SteadyShot is built into the camera body, all compatible telephoto, wide-angle, standard and macro lenses are automatically image-stabilized. This also allows from two to 3-1/2 stops of latitude in exposure, which supports hand-held shooting at longer shutter speeds than would otherwise be possible.
Sony Alpha 100 DSLR camera - 10 Megapixels
With its 10.2 Megapixel APS CCD image sensor, the DIWA Gold awarded Sony Alpha DSLR-A100 camera has one of the highest resolution available in its class. Sony’s Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO) analyzes the captured image data and instantly determines the best exposure and color tonality of an image before JPEG compression. Unlike software optimization of a processed image, DRO is performed in the hardware. It is the first hardware-based DRO solution for high-speed shooting.
