Carl Zeiss® 3X Optical/6X Digital Zoom

A top-quality lens can make every shot you take look sharper and more vivid -- and 3X Optical Zoom brings distant subjects closer and lets you frame shots for better composition, while Sony’s precision 6X Digital Zoom lets you enlarge image areas without jagged edges.

Real Imaging Processor™ Technology

The innovative Real Imaging Processor in the DSC-N1 not only improves picture quality and clarity but also improves camera response time, decreases shutter lag and improves battery stamina.

Scene Selection Mode

With 8 Scene Modes, parameters can be matched to the shooting conditions. Choose from one of the following: Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Candle, Soft Snap, Landscape, Beach, Snow, Fireworks

3.0”2 Hybrid Touch-Screen LCD Monitor

A monitor big enough to make all your images come alive, with convenient touch-screen operation of camera functions as well as thumbnail image viewing for searching and editing photos.

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.

26 MB4 Internal Memory

3:2 Aspect Ratio Mode Adjustable

Adjustable Color Saturation/Contrast

8.1 Megapixel Super HAD™ CCD

Over 8 million pixels provide incredible high-resolution detail and definition -- and Sony’s advanced 1/1.8” Super HAD (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise.

Slide Show with Music Playback1

The DSC-N1 lets you combine images in Slide Show sequence, pick your favorites and delete unwanted shots, add up to 4 of your own music tracks and use any of 4 transition effects (simple, nostalgic, stylish or active).

5 Area Multi-Point Auto Focus

By evaluating 5 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.

Pre-Flash Metering

With a momentary pre-flash, the camera illuminates the subject and sets exposure through the lens for accurate flash metering. Adjustable flash level and Red-Eye Reduction ensure great flash shots.

Free Spot AF

In addition to normal autofocus mode, the DSC-N1 lets you focus on a subject by just touching it on your LCD monitor -- a fast and simple way to adjust focus for complex scenes or moving subjects.

Stamina Lithium Ion Rechargeable Battery

A high-stamina NP-FG1 Lithium Ion battery lets the DSC-N1 shoot up to 300 images3, giving you plenty of power when traveling or shooting on location.

Quick Hookup to PC and TV

The optional CSS-TNA Cyber-shot Station™ cradle provides USB connector for PC hookup and TV connector for viewing images on large screens -- so when your DSC-N1 comes home, hookup can be quick and simple.
