Sony have announced a few more device to add to its Cyber-shot S-Series, with the two models (S780, S750) designed to deliver great-looking pictures plus smart features without breaking the bank.
With a high-quality Sony 3x optical zoom lens and a high resolution of 8.1 effective megapixels, the Cyber-shot S780 can produce detail-packed images that can be blown up as A3 sized prints. The S750 also offers a resolution of 7.2 effective megapixels.
In an S-Series first, both cameras now feature Face Detection. This Sony-developed technology can track up to three faces in the frame at a time, adjusting focus and exposure for clear, exposed portraits of friends and family.
They’re also the first Cyber-shot S-Series models to use a high-capacity Sony lithium ion battery instead of standard alkaline cells. This ensures a thinner, lighter profile than previous S-Series cameras. In addition, the slim-line battery takes up less space than conventional cells when you’re carrying spares in a pocket or bag: great when you’re away from home for longer periods and don’t want to run out of power.
The Cyber-shot S780 and S750 let you capture clear, blur-free pictures without the aid of flash if you’re shooting in low light or on cloudy days. Selecting ‘High Sensitivity’ mode on the easy-to-adjust mode dial boosts sensitivity to ISO 1250. This allows shooting at faster shutter speeds to reduce the risk of camera shake, even with moving subjects.
Both cameras can even help beginners pick the optimum image size for shooting, depending on your preferred printing paper size and the amount of memory space remaining.
