Sony CyberShot W220 camera features
Coupled with high sensitivity (max ISO 3200), this reduces camera shake for crisper pictures when you’re shooting handheld without a tripod. Smile Shutter captures more happy moments and is great fun to use, it automatically fires the shutter when someone smiles. Adjustable to prioritise children’s or adults’ smiles, it’s perfect for relaxed, informal portraits. Smile Shutter also works in conjunction with Face Detection. This fine-tunes focus, exposure, white balance and skin tones for beautiful portraits.
Sony W220 equipped with 2.7" LCD
The Sony CyberShot DSC-W220 digital camera also features Intelligent Scene Recognition for simpler shooting in difficult conditions. This automatically adjusts camera settings for best results in a range of commonly-encountered situations like backlit scenes or twilight portraits. Detail-packed pictures can be enjoyed on the large, clear 2.7-inch LCD. High Definition slideshows with music add an extra dimension of fun to viewing your shots - either on the LCD or a connected BRAVIA television. PhotoTV HD means even more vibrant, colourful images when the camera is connected to a compatible BRAVIA TV (requires optional HD cable).
Sony W220 includes Picture Motion Browser
The Sony W220 includes Picture Motion Browser 4.0. The latest version of Sony’s image management application simplifies sorting, viewing and searching through photos and video clips stored on your PC’s hard drive.
