Product description

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-G1 6-Megapixel Digital Camera - Silver

Features

6-megapixel Super HAD™ CCD: Capture more detail and definition when you make big prints or crop in tight on your subject. The advanced Super HAD (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise.

2GB internal memory: As you shoot, the DSC-G1 can simultaneously create and store up to 7,500 images at VGA resolution for viewing and sharing with friends and family. You can also store up to 600 photos at full 6-megapizel resolution. Advanced search features: The included Album Editor software allows you to search photos by color, face or similarity to another image. You can also search by up to 50 preset labels and combine search methods.

Dual-use design: Boasting a durable and stylish aluminum body, The DSC-G1 has a built-in cover that hides shooting controls for photo viewing and provides simple side buttons to search and access photos on the LCD screen. When you want to shoot, the cover opens to reveal the lens and camera control buttons.

3.5" LCD screen: Review your photos and view menu options on the massive 3.5" XtraFine™ LCD screen.

Zoom: Bring distant subjects closer and frame shots quickly for better composition with the Carl Zeiss® 3x optical zoom lens—a real advantage for family sports, outdoor fun and travel photos.

Super SteadyShot® Image Stabilization: Compensate for shaky hands and minimize blur even when shooting at low light without flash to preserve the mood. This feature makes it easy to capture images in museums or places where a flash is not permitted.

High sensitivity: For sharp, flash-free photos without blur, the higher sensitivity (ISO 1000) of the DSC-G1 allows shooting at higher shutter speeds to stop fast action and capture superb low-light images.

Wireless sharing: With built-in wireless capability, the DSC-G1 is more than a digital camera, it’s a great communicator. Shoot and share pictures instantly with two linked compatible cameras, copy photos with wireless peer-to-peer ease from camera to compatible camera, and transmit photos wirelessly to DLNA-compatible computers.

Video clips: Shoot MPEG video clips with high resolution and compact file size, capturing full-screen 640 x 480 VGA moving images at up to 30 frames per second and allowing you to fit more video in your available memory capacity.  

Memory Stick Duo™ media: A built-in slot accepts the optional compact and high-capacity Memory Stick Duo media or Memory Stick PRO Duo™ media.

this camera has pretty good pic quality, but the price was a little heavy. it also has great video quality and the sound capturing tech was magnificent. DEFINITELY A MUST FOR SOMEONE WITH A LITTLE EXTRA CHANGE IN THEIR POCKET(s)
