The Sony DSC S500 combines 6.0 Megapixel resolution with a quality 3X optical zoom lens design, terrific wide-angle shooting capability, 25MB internal Memory for capturing shots in-camera, and a bright 2.4 inch LCD screen that allows you to check your shots and share results immediately. The Sony Cybershot S500 gives you a large LCD screen for reading camera menus, composing shots, and sharing your photos on location.

 Sony Cybershot S500 - Optical zoom
More Megapixels give you more detail and definition when you make big prints or crop in tight on your subject. The Sony advanced Super HAD (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise. 3X Optical Zoom helps the Sony Cybershot S500 bring distant subjects closer and lets you frame shots for better composition; the Sony precision 2X Digital Zoom provides an additional 2X magnification to zoom in close without jagged edges.
