Multi Frame NR achieves ultra-low-noise imaging

Dynamic range approaches human vision with Auto HDR

With DT 16-105mm F3.5-5.6 (SAL16105) in Sweep Panorama Mode

Sweep Panorama captures sweeping vistas in a single motion

Multi Frame NR realizes extremely low noise by automatically capturing six frames at high speed using the current shutter speed, aperture, and ISO settings, and seamlessly combining them into

a single low-noise JPEG image using

sophisticated motion-detection and

digital compositing technologies. The

amount of noise reduction achieved

can be as much as two ISO steps. At

the highest setting Multi Frame NR uses

Auto HDR is another advanced compositing feature that captures far greater shadow and highlight detail than normal exposure. It achieves a dynamic range of 6EV that approaches the extremely wide range of human vision. Auto HDR automatically captures

three frames in rapid succession and combines them into a single image with perfect alignment.The advanced algorithms used to align the exposures are so effective that you can even shoot remarkable HDR images without using a tripod.

There was a time when compositing multiple shots to create panoramic images with eye-catching detail required careful shooting plus time spent at a computer. Now the Sony SLTs Sweep Panorama mode makes it easy to create spectacular panorama photos by simply sweeping the camera

across the scene you want to capture. All necessary post-processing is carried out automatically right in the camera, thanks to the high performance and speed of the Exmor APS HD CMOS sensor and BIONZ image processor.

There’s also a 3D Sweep Panorama mode that creates panoramic images with incredible 3D depth.You can view 3D panoramas by connecting the camera

to HDMI-compliant 3D TVs.

Hand-held Twilight mode enables low-light captures without flash

The Hand-held Twilight mode is a fully automatic Scene Selection mode that works similarly to Multi Frame NR, taking six frames at high speed and precisely combining them into a single image, using Sony digital compositing technology. Low-light blurring and noise are minimized so you can shoot natural- looking images without flash.

D-Range Optimizer brings out high- light and shadow detail in any light

The D-Range Optimizer uses original Sony technology to bring out natural highlight and shadow detail in high contrast lighting conditions.That can be a huge advantage when shooting portraits and active subjects. High-speed BIONZ processing means it can even be used for continuous shooting.
