Sony Cybershot W300
Sony Cybershot W300 : It’s the toughest, most technically advanced Cyber-shot W Series camera yet. The slim, beautifully-styled Sony Cybershot DSC-W300 camera features a scratch resistant titanium coating that’s around five times tougher than anodised aluminium. Inside the pristine exterior, it’s crammed with latest-generation Sony technology to help everyone take better pictures. An extremely high resolution of 13.6 effective megapixels assures detail packed enlargements to A3 size and beyond. Optical performance is further assured by the top-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens with 3x optical zoom. The new Sony Cyber-shot W300 digital camera will be available throughout Europe from End of April.
Sony Cybershot DSC-W300 - Light conditions
The new Sony W300 excels at capturing crisp, clear images in low light conditions where other cameras struggle. Maximum sensitivity is boosted to an incredible ISO 6400. Teamed with Sony’s original Clear RAW Noise Reduction and Super Steady Shot image stabilisation, this lets the Sony Cybershot DSC-W300 produce excellent results without a tripod in dimly-lit twilight scenes.
