Cyber-shot® Digital Still Camera DSC-H1 L Step-up Feature !New Feature I 1/2.5" 5.1 Megapixel Super HAD™CCD Super HAD (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCDs provide excellent image quality by allowing more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise.

And Sony’s Precision Digital Zoom helps bring your subject closer with an extra 2X magnification. L!0-48X Smart Zoom™Feature (at VGA Resolution) The Smart Zoom feature intelligently uses the full CCD to let you zoom into the portion of interest by cropping the image size-thus avoiding the image degradation of Digital Zooms. L Super SteadyShot® Optical Image Stabilization Super SteadyShot® Optical Image Stabilization fights motion blur, even during longer exposures at full zoom. I Real Imaging Processor™Technology The innovative Real Imaging Processor in the DSC-H1 not only improves picture quality and clarity but also improves camera response time, decreases shutter lag and improves battery stamina. I 2.5" LCD Monitor The 2.5" 115K LCD Monitor makes framing shots and reviewing pictures easy.

I 14-Bit DXP A/D Conversion 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. I 3 Area Multi-Point Auto Focus By evaluating 3 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.

Adjustable flash level and red-eye reduction ensure great flash shots.
