Sony DSC-P200 Press Release Excerpt:
SONY'S BEST-SELLING CYBER-SHOT P SERIES INTRODUCTION OF
7.2-MEGAPIXEL DSC-P200
LAS VEGAS, (CES, Booth #N109), Jan. 5, 2005 - Get ready
to fall in love all over again. Five years after the Cyber-shot®
Series first hit the market, the new DSC-P200 is expected to
capture the hearts of consumers with unsurpassed grace, speed
and style. Loaded with 7.2 megapixels, this compact
point-and-shoot digital camera puts spectacular photos in the
palm of your hand.
More compact than its predecessor model, the P200 camera slips
comfortably into a shirt pocket or handbag. The camera's slimmed
down design makes it even more convenient for users to snap
breathtaking photos anytime, anywhere. It will be available next
month for less than $400.
"Since the Cyber-shot P Series was introduced, it has been one
of our best selling camera families," said Hiroshi Takahashi,
vice president for digital imaging products at Sony Electronics.
"The P200 will take this to greater heights with its advanced
features, lower pricing, and more compact design."
Blazingly Fast
The new P200 model is powered by Sony's own Real Imaging
Processor™ circuitry, which delivers extremely fast start-up and
shot-to-shot times, and puts extra speed and muscle behind
automatic features like auto focus and auto exposure. You'll
never have to worry about missing a shot because the camera is
always at the ready.
The new model features a Carl Zeiss® Vario Tessar®
3X optical zoom lens and a generous 2-inch LCD screen, making it
easy for friends and family to gather round and enjoy images the
moment they are captured.
Small Package, Big Benefits
The camera is packed with features and benefits typically found
on more full-sized cameras. At just one inch thin, it takes
vibrant digital photos, capturing color and detail not commonly
found in such a compact camera.
With nine pre-set scene modes - such as twilight, landscape,
snow, beach and fireworks - you can quickly select the best
setting based on appropriate shooting conditions. The P200 also
has battery power to spare. With approximately 370 shots per
charge of the InfoLithium™ battery, the camera lets you snap
away without fear of running down the charge.
Great photos are just part of the picture. The camera also
captures and plays back high resolution moving images. The
MPEG-VX Fine mode allows you to record MPEG video with 640x480
pixel resolution at 30 frames per second.
The new camera can also be used with Sony's Cyber-shot Station
CSS-PHA camera accessory, available now for about $80, for
playing back slideshows on a TV or transferring images to a PC
while charging the camera's batteries. The bundled infrared
remote controller intelligently commands the docked camera via
the Cyber-shot Station to toggle between captured videos and
still pictures.
And when connected to a PictBridge™ -compatible
printer such as Sony's PictureStation® DPP-FP30
digital photo printer, printing a specific image is as easy as a
press of the remote controller's button.
The Cyber-shot P200 camera includes a 32MB Memory Stick®
media card. It is also compatible with Memory Stick PRO®
high-capacity media cards.
