Model Highlights: 14.1-megapixel, 5x optical zoom, 720p HD movie capture, 360° Sweep Panorama Mode, 2.7" LCD, iAuto, Smile Shutter™ and Face Detection, SteadyShot™ image stabilization
With this powerful yet simple-to-use Cyber-shot® W620 camera in hand, it'll be all smiles from here on out.
Just take aim and click away—a smart mix of innovative features makes it a breeze to capture every moment
in delightfully detailed 14.1MP clarity. Intelligent Auto mode offers a foolproof set-it-and-forget-it option for crisp,
perfectly exposed photos every time, while Face Detection technology instantly adjusts focus, exposure and more for even better
results. So tell them to strike a pose and crack a smile—then let the camera take care of the rest.
Panoramic Photos up to 360°
Use Sweep Panorama™ mode to get breathtaking panoramic shots of up to 360 degrees. Capture sprawling landscapes
and captivating cityscapes by depressing the shutter and sweeping the camera in the desired direction.
The camera handles the rest, shooting multiple images at high speeds then seamlessly stitching them together
to create one continuous image.
A Smarter Auto Mode
Unlike traditional auto mode, Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode thinks for you—recognizing scenes, lighting
conditions and faces—then automatically selects the optimal settings for the shot. The results? Clearer images,
faces with natural-looking skin tones and less blur.
Faces First
Sony's Face Detection technology detects up to eight individual faces, then adjusts focus, exposure, flash and
white balance to deliver crisp, properly lit images of family and friends.
Room for Everybody
The Sony 5x optical zoom lens with 26mm equivalent wide angle brings distant subjects closer for great outdoor
and travel photos. Plus, the wide angle lens helps you fit everyone in for better group photos.
Catch Them Smiling
Capture a smile the moment it happens with Smile Shutter™ technology. Simply press the Smile Shutter button—the
moment your subject cracks that perfect smile, the camera snaps a photo automatically. You can even optimize sensitivity
for adults or children for the best results.
Capture super framable picture quality and 720p HD video with ease. Use the 14.1MP sensor, 5X optical zoom, and 360 degree Sweep Panorama™ mode to create breathtaking images or record crisp action and sound in 720p HD video, even when zooming. Make taking pictures even more fun with Picture Effects, like Toy Camera and Pop Color mode. View everything on a generously sized 2.7" Clear Photo™ LCD screen, even in bright sunlight. Get great shots thanks to iAuto mode, Face Detection and Smile Shutter technologies, as well as Anti-blink, Face Priority and Red-eye Reduction functions.
720p AVI Movie Mode
In 720p AVI movie mode the camera shoots 1280 x 720 high definition movies at 30 fps, a standard format when working with a PC.¹ Users will create high quality movies with full use of optical zoom in files small enough to transfer to compatible PC or Mac® computer. Once transferred to your computer and connected to the internet, you can effortlessly upload your media to popular photo and video-sharing websites such as Photobucket® and YouTube™.
2.7” (230K dots) Clear Photo™ LCD display
Generous 2.7” (230K dots) Clear Photo™ LCD displayfeatures sharp, natural color that makes it easy to compose shots, read menus, and view photos, even in bright sunlight.
Smile Shutter™ technology
Smile Shutter™ technology captures a smile the moment it happens. Simply press the Smile Shutter™ button and the camera does the rest. You can also select adult and child priority and indicate the degree of Smile Detection sensitivity. Intelligent Scene Recognition can now be used together with Smile Shutter™ mode when the Intelligent Auto mode is on. This means that beautiful smiles can be captured with settings optimized for the particular scene, even in difficult conditions such as twilight and backlighting.
Dynamic Range Optimizer
Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO) Standard and Plus uses a sophisticated algorithm to help recover shadows and highlights. The result is more natural images with clearer details that more closely match what your naked eye sees. DRO is particularly effective when shooting backlit portraits or any scene with a dramatic contrast between background and foreground lighting. DRO Plus allows for even greater optimization by analyzing each region of an image and performing additional image processing.
14.1 Megapixel Super HAD™ CCD Image Sensor
A powerful 14.1 megapixel 1/2.3” Super HAD™ CCD image sensor helps you capture gorgeous images with superb contrast and clarity down to the finest detail. With 14.1 megapixels, you can create stunning, photo-quality prints up to A3+ (13x19”) size, or crop your images and still come away with high resolution shots.
Face Detection technology
Face Detection technology detects up to eight individual faces and adjusts focus, exposure, and white balance to help deliver crisp, properly lit images of family and friends.
Intelligent Scene Recognition mode
Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) mode automatically detects eight different types of scenes and, within just 1/30th of a second, selects the appropriate camera settings: Backlight, Backlight Portrait, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Twilight using a tripod, Portrait, Landscape and macro.
Self-Portrait Timer
Self-Portrait Timer helps take the guesswork out of self portraits by utilizing Face Detection technology to recognize when your face enters the frame. Once the camera detects your face, it triggers a 2-second timer, and then snaps a picture.
Sweep Panorama™ mode (up to 360°)
Reach beyond the traditional wide angle lens, and capture more breathtaking shots with Sweep Panorama™ mode. Simply press the shutter button and sweep the camera in the desired direction and the camera continuously shoots at a high speed, then seamlessly stitches the images together with automatic position adjustment to create one stunning panoramic image. Available in wide and up to 360° full circle, the camera can take a variety of panoramic shots. Now capturing wide landscapes is as easy as press and sweep.
Intelligent Auto Mode
Unlike traditional auto mode, Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode thinks for you, recognizing scenes, lighting conditions, faces, and adjusts settings resulting in clear images, faces with natural skin tone and less blur. Take advantage of all the technology without leaving Auto mode. Kids on the playground, landscape shots, a beautiful flower or an indoor birthday party; all result in clear images without leaving auto mode.
Soft Skin mode
Portrait subjects will love the results. Soft Skin mode recognizes skin tones and reduces the appearance of blemishes and wrinkles without affecting the rest of the shot.
Picture Effect
Picture Effect adds a new level of expression to photos, making ordinary landscapes and portraits come to life by heightening mood and emphasizing certain attributes.
