Cyber-shot® Digital CameraCombining point-and-shoot convenience with a host of manual photographic controls, this camera is sure to inspire digital photographers to expand creativity and get better results. Armed with high-quality Carl Zeiss optics, ISO sensitivities of 100/200/400/800 and shutter speeds of up to 1/2000 second in auto mode, the DSC-F717 produces stellar results, even in the most demanding of shooting situations.Carl Zeiss® Vario-Sonnar Lens Multi-Point Auto Focus Hologram AF Low Light Laser Focusing Assist Multi-Pattern Measuring Memory Stick® Media NightShot® Slow Shutter Noise Reduction Mega Pixel • 2/3" 5.0 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. • Manual Focus/Zoom Ring Take precise control of zoom and manual focus with the lens mounted ring. Fast, intuitive framing is easy with its natural “feel”, and two speed action. • Pre-Flash Metering With a momentary pre-flash, the
camera illuminates the subject and calculates exposure through the lens directly from the CCD for accurate flash metering. Adjustable flash level and red-eye reduction insure great flash shots. • 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. • Dynamic White Balance Accurate color balance under changing lighting and exposure settings is realized by linking the White Balance to the Exposure and Flash systems. Manual setting allows calibration with white card. • Manual Exposure Controls Flexible Exposure control is provided with Aperture Priority (f2 – 8), Shutter Priority (30 sec–1/1000 sec) and Manual Exposure modes. EV Compensation and flash output level allow fine tuning. • Live Histogram Display Available for capture and playback, the live histogram displays number of pixels at each luminosity to evaluate exposure. • Eye-level & 1.8" LCD Viewfinders For accurate framing and following fast action, |
both the 180K pixel eye-level finder and 1.8" 123K pixel LCD provide through-the-lens viewing & menu display. • Quick Start-up and Response Ready to shoot in little more than a second, the DSC-F717 reduced shutter lag and extraordinary responsiveness is always ready to capture the action. • 5 MP (2560x1920) Image Size With its high resolution CCD, the DSC-F717 captures in 4 different image sizes, in TIFF or Fine/Standard JPEG modes. • NightFraming System To capture beautiful color images in low or no light, NightFraming illuminates the subject with the NightShot® system for proper framing, focuses with Hologram AF and lights the scene with flash. • File Folder Tool By creating separate folders on Memory Stick media, you can select the location in which to record your images, helping organize your files. • MPEG Movie HQX Mode Captures full frame playback, high frame rate (16 fps) video clips (w/audio) with length limited only by the capacity of the media. • Multi Burst Mode Captures 16 320x240 frames as part of a single 1280x960 image which plays back sequentially in the camera. Selectable 1/7.5, 1/15 or 1/30 second frame intervals provide convenient motion analysis. • Hot Shoe and ACC Terminal Connect Sony’s HVL-F1000 flash or Remote Controls with ACC Terminal, or synchronize other flash units or studio lighting with the Hot Shoe terminal. • Rechargeable InfoLithium® Battery Provides reliable, long-lasting power for continuous shooting, without “memory effect”. AC-L10 adapter/charger provides stable power for USB transfer.
