From the Manufacturer Longer zoom, smaller size. Sony puts 10x optical zoom in the palm of your hand. With compact body design, 8.1-megapixel resolution, and a top-quality Carl Zeiss lens, the Cyber-shot DSC-H3 packs more photo opportunities in a small size. Advanced Sports Mode (up to 1/2000 second) catches fast action. And Face Detection detects up to eight faces in a picture, so everyone will look their best. HD Output provides spectacular photo viewing on your Sony Bravia and other compatible HDTV screens, and the Sony Double Anti-Blur Solution combines Super SteadyShot optical image stabilization with High Sensitivity (ISO 3200) for crisp imaging in low light. 10x Zoom in a Sleek Compact Body Sony radically redesigned the positioning of key camera components to fit a powerful 10x optical zoom capability into a compact design that's easy to carry anywhere. The grip fits firmly into your hand, the lens ring adds a high-performance feel--and the top-mounted Wheel Dial lets you adjust shooting modes faster. High-Power Carl Zeiss 10x Optical Zoom A superb lens for bringing long-distance subjects up close, the pro-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens design of the DSC-H3 provides 10x optical zoom design--with 20x digital zoom to enlarge the center portion of the picture so you see even more detail. 8.1-Megapixel Super HAD CCD More megapixels give you more detail and definition for editing, cropping, and making large digital prints. Sony's advanced Super HAD (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise. Advanced Sports Mode To capture fast-moving subjects in split-second detail, the DSC-H3 combines high shutter speed (up to 1/2000 second) with Continuous AF and predictive focus control that tracks moving subjects and forecasts their position during the interval between shutter release and image capture--a great way to catch the perfect moment in sports, children's games, pet tricks, and more. Face Detection Because the face makes the photo, Sony has created Face Detection technology that recognizes up to eight faces in a photo and automatically controls focus, exposure, color, and flash to bring out the best in everyone. Unlike some competitive systems, Sony Face Detection makes skin tones look more natural and reduces red-eye with pre-strobe flash. HD Output With direct HD output to spectacular Sony Bravia and other compatible HDTV screens, you can view DSC-H3 still photos in high definition clarity and detail. Optional HD solutions include a Cyber-shot cradle/charger with component cable output and high-speed Photo Printers that make 4-by-6-inch prints in about 45 seconds. (Cradle/charger and printer sold separately) Powerful, Versatile Flash With a flash powerful enough to illuminate subjects up to 23 feet away, the DSC-H3 opens up new opportunities for flash photography--including dimly lit interiors and outdoor shots at twilight. Auto Daylight Synchro provides effective fill-in flash illumination for backlit subjects--and Macro Flash lets you take ultra-close-up shots with optimal exposure and minimal "whiteout" effect. Super SteadyShot Optical Image Stabilization Other image stabilization systems crop in to compensate for "camera shake"--but with the Super SteadyShot system, optical sensors detect camera movement and send correcting signals to a stabilization lens that allows even ultra-long-distance digital photos to capture more detail with less camera-shake distortion. High Sensitivity Mode With Super SteadyShot image stabilization to minimize blur, High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 3200) lets the DSC-H3 shoot effectively in low light without flash to preserve the mood--and Sony's original Clear RAW NR (Noise Reduction) image processing technology helps suppress the color noise that can accompany high-sensitivity shooting. HD Slide Show with Music It's the high-definition viewing experience that makes photos come alive on compatible HDTV screens, accomp
