decreases shutter lag and improves battery stamina.
Optical Viewfinder
Provides accurate framing at eye level, great for added stability and
following fast moving subjects.
2.0-Inch LCD Monitor
The 2.0-inch 115K LCD monitor makes framing shots and reviewing pictures
easy.

Sony's 14-bit Digital EXtended Processor captures the range between
highlight and shadow with up to 16,384 values, for extended dynamic
contrast and detail.
5-Area Multi-Point Autofocus
By evaluating 5 separate focus areas of the frame, Sony's Multi-Point AF
system can intelligently focus on the subject and avoid mistakenly
focusing on the background.
Manual Exposure Mode
Manual Exposure Mode provides extended control with 46-step adjustable
shutter speed (30 seconds to 1/1000 second), and two-step aperture
control.
AF (Autofocus) Illuminator
An amber light briefly illuminates the subject, in low- or no-light
conditions, helping to establish a positive focus lock.
Selectable Focus Mode
Monitoring AF (Auto Focus) helps you anticipate the action by focusing
even before you press the shutter release.
Multi-Pattern Measuring
Independently light-metering 49 points of the frame, Multi-Pattern
Measuring establishes the optimum exposure, even when highlight and shadow
isn't centered in the frame.
Scene Selection Mode
With 7 Scene Modes, parameters can be matched to the shooting conditions.
Choose from one of the following: Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Soft Snap,
Landscape, Beach, Snow, and Candle.
Pre-Flash Metering
With a momentary pre-flash, the camera illuminates the subject and sets
exposure through the lens for accurate flash metering. Adjustable flash
level and red-eye reduction ensure great flash shots.
Slow Shutter Noise Reduction
During long exposures, Slow Shutter NR captures the scene, and then the
CCD noise pattern with a dark frame exposure. By subtracting the two, even
long exposures can be clear.
