Top Sony Cyber-shot T50 Camera Reviews
Steve's Digicams wrote a review of the
Sony Cybershot T50
and said: "Like we have seen with the other T-series models this
year, the image quality of the T50's 7-megapixel images is very
good. Our outdoor samples showed nice exposure and pleasing
color saturation. Images are also sharp, thanks to the 5 Area
Multi-point AF system and its high-quality Carl Zeiss 3x optical
zoom lens. While offering a typical focal range of 38 - 114mm
(35mm equivalent), it offers quite a bit of versatility in
composing your shots. The 38mm wide angle extreme works well for
outdoor landscape shots and group portraits, while the telephoto
capabilities are nice for close-up individual portraits."
Sony Cyber-shot T50 News Release Summary:
Outstanding 7.2 megapixel resolution plus Double Anti-Blur
technology adds up to sparking images with the slim-line
Cyber-shot T50 camera from Sony. The Cyber-shot T50 weighs a
mere 130g*. At just 95.0mm (W) x 56.5 mm (H) x 23.4m thin, it’s
compact enough to slip into a pocket or bag for use any time.
It’s easy to use, too, thanks to a large 3.0-inch touch-screen
for quick access to shooting and playback functions.
Complementing the high-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 3x
Optical Zoom lens, Double Anti-Blur technology teams a high
sensitivity of ISO 1000 with Super Steady Shot optical image
stabilisation for great results, even in poor light. Inside its
sleek aluminium lines, the Cyber-shot T50 packs a wide range of
other functions including Slideshow with Music to get even more
out of shooting and sharing your photos. There’s even a handy
stylus for ‘painting’ decorative additions to your pictures on
the large touch-screen.
High resolution 1/2.5-inch 7.2 effective Megapixel Super HAD
CCD
The Cyber-shot T50 uses a Sony-developed Super HAD CCD sensor
with an extremely high resolution of 7.2 effective Megapixels.
The 1/2.5-inch size sensor boosts dynamic range, reducing the
causes of ‘washed out’ overexposed images – a common problem
with cameras that pack a high pixel count into a small sensor
size by reducing pixel pitch.
Double Anti-Blur technology
The Cyber-shot T50 features Sony Double Anti-Blur technology for
crisp, clear photos. An extremely high sensitivity of ISO 1000
allows successful handheld shooting even when shooting indoors
or at dusk. For even more natural looking results, Sony Clear
RAW NR image processing helps suppress colour noise that tends
to occur at high sensitivity settings. Complementing the
camera’s high sensitivity, the T50 also features Super Steady
Shot – an optical image stabiliser that combats the effects of
camera shake, one of the biggest causes of spoiled pictures. An
icon appears on the display to confirm when Super SteadyShot is
active. This Dual Anti-Blur combination of high sensitivity and
Super Steady Shot ensures that the Cyber-shot T50 captures
clear, blur-free images, even in situations where other compact
cameras struggle.
Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 3x Optical Zoom lens
The high-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens features a 3x
Optical Zoom range. 6x Precision Digital Zoom and 14x VGA Smart
Zoom modes provide even greater magnification of distant
objects.
Large 3.0-inch 230,000 dots Clear Photo LCD Plus touch screen
The hybrid 3.0-inch touch-sensitive screen features Clear Photo
LCD Plus technology for clear, vivid image reproduction. The
screen’s smooth anti-reflection layer improves image quality
while suppressing reflections for increased contrast, especially
outside in bright sunlight. A wide range of shooting and
playback functions can be accessed directly via the LCD touch
panel. A unique Flexible Spot AF function lets you focus
directly on a specific part of the image with a single touch on
the screen. The paint function permits artistic additions to
photos using the touchscreen and supplied Paint Pen stylus.
Smart illumination automatically turns off distracting on-screen
icons while a scene is being composed. Display brightness can
also be adjusted directly without the need to access the menu.
High-sensitivity movie recording
The camera’s high sensitivity allows movie recording in light as
dim as 10 lux (approx. 1.3 EV). Optical zoom is also possible
when recording movies for greater creative options. It’s easy to
control start, stop, forward and rewind functions simply by
tracing with a finger on the LCD touch panel during movie
playback.
Slideshow with Music
Images can be viewed on the camera’s large 3-inch LCD screen as
a slideshow. Slideshows can be customised further with the
additional of effects (simple, nostalgic, stylish, active) and
optional music accompaniment (4 preset tunes). Bundled Music
Transfer software allows this preset music to be replaced with
favourite songs stored on your PC.
Picture Motion Browser software
It’s easy to transfer and manage photos with any PC using the
supplied Picture Motion Browser software. The easy-to-use
package automatically organises images uploaded from the
Cyber-shot T50 that can be browsed in calendar format. In
conjunction with Sony GPS-CS1, images can also be displayed in
Picture Motion Browser’s ‘map view’ mode, indicating where as
well as when they were taken. The camera’s generous 56MB
internal memory is complemented by storage using optional Memory
Stick Duo or Memory Stick PRO Duo media. The Cyber-shot T50 also
supports PictBridge, the standard for printing directly to
compatible PictBridge photo printers, such as the Sony DPP-FP55.
STAMINA battery technology delivers 400 shots from single
charge
The supplied Lithium Ion battery features improved Sony STAMINA
technology, to deliver up to 400** shots on a single charge.
This equates to over 3 hours continuous shooting time.
Accessories
Supplied accessories include: InfoLITHIUM rechargeable battery
(NP-FR1), Battery Charger, Wrist Strap, Paint Pen stylus, CD-ROM
(including USB driver, Picture Motion Browser software and
Picture Package Music Transfer), AV and USB multi-use terminal
cable. Optional accessories include a high quality black genuine
