Sony Cybershot DSC-S780 News Release Excerpt:
Sony adds performance and refines design on entry-level cybershot cameras.

San Diego, Jan. 23, 2008 – Sony has enhanced the features and updated the design of its new Cyber-shot DSC-S780 digital still camera models. The new entry-level digital still camera features Sony’s face detection technology, which identifies up to three faces in the camera’s LCD frame and automatically adjusts focus and exposure for well-exposed, natural-looking photos.

Sony has also upgraded the power source to Lithium Ion batteries, instead of AA batteries, to extend battery life and allow for a body design that is just 1-inch slim. The DSC-S780 camera can capture up to 270 shots on a single full charge.

“Face detection is just one of the technologies we’re introducing to help customers take better photos more easily,” said Phil Lubell, director of marketing for digital cameras at Sony Electronics.

The 8.1-megapixel DSC-S780 model incorporate a CCD imager, 3x optical zoom lens, and a 2.5-inch LCD screen for easy framing and viewing of photos.

Higher sensitivity settings up to ISO 1250 have been added to both models to help reduce the risk of blurry photos when shooting in low-light conditions.

Seven convenient scene selections, including twilight, twilight portrait, landscape, soft snap, beach, snow and high sensitivity, allow you to adjust quickly for specific shooting conditions.

The camera's five-point autofocus system helps take the guesswork out of picture taking by intelligently selecting the best focus for the subject. This helps to ensure that the subject is in focus, even if they are not in the center of the frame.

The cameras are equipped with 22MB of internal memory so you can start shooting as soon as the camera is out of the box. Their capacities can be expanded easily with an optional Memory Stick Duo or Memory Stick PRO Duo media card, now available in capacities up to 16 gigabytes.
