Cyber-shot Digital Camera DSC-G1

Model number: DSC-G1
View and store up to 600 full-resolution photos without a memory card with the innovative DSC-G1 Cyber-shot® digital camera.

ADDITIONAL IMAGES:

Unique Dual-Use Design

The DSC-G1’s sleek silver-finish aluminum body has a built-in cover that hides shooting controls for photo viewing and provides simple side buttons to search and access photos on the XtraFine™ 3.5”2 LCD screen; to shoot, the cover opens and reveals lens and camera control buttons.

Super SteadyShot® Image Stabilization

Compensates for shaky hands to minimize blur even when shooting at low light without flash to preserve the mood -- or capturing images in museums or religious sites where flash is not permitted.

Automatic Image Management

Lets you automatically organize all your photos based on when they were shot -- and you can view photos as thumbnail images and quickly select shots for full-screen viewing.

User-Friendly GUI with Function Guide

Just move the cursor, select the icon, and instantly access camera control functions. Function Guide display also provides simple on-screen instructions to guide you in camera setup.

Hand-Held Twilight Mode

A new shot mode that captures great shots in twilight or at night -- by automatically evaluating brightness, taking continuous shots at high shutter speed, correcting blur by comparing images and creating a single shot that’s beautifully clear and noise-free.

Memory Stick Duo™ Media

A built-in slot is provided for compact, high-capacity Memory Stick Duo™ and Memory Stick PRO Duo™ media.

3X Optical Zoom Carl Zeiss® Lens

Precision Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® design and 3X Optical zoom give you the power to capture sharp, highly detailed long shots and frame images for better composition.

2 GB1 Internal Memory

As you shoot, the DSC-G1 can simultaneously create and store up to 7,500 images at VGA resolution for viewing and sharing with friends and family -- like carrying a whole photo archive in your pocket. You can also store up to around 600 photos at full 6.0 MP resolution.

XtraFine™ 3.5”2 LCD Screen

With 921k resolution, it’s the largest, highest-definition screen available on a compact digital camera -- and a more exciting to view and share your entire photo archive, even in 100-image thumbnail index arrays.

Wireless Photo Sharing

You can share images in three ways: shoot and share instantly between up to four linked DSC-G1 cameras, copy photos with wireless peer-to-peer communication between compatible cameras, or view photos via wireless transmission to DLNA-compatible TVs and computers.

Stamina® Battery Power

A fully-charged NP-FR1 Lithium Ion battery lets the DSC-G1 shoot up to 280 images3, giving you plenty of power when traveling or shooting on location.

6.0 MP Super HAD™ CCD

Over 6 million pixels provide high-resolution detail for making big prints and cropping in tight on your subject -- and the advanced Sony Super HAD™ (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise.

High Sensitivity

For sharp, flash-free photos without blur, the higher sensitivity (ISO 1000) of the DSC-G1 allows shooting at higher shutter speeds to stop fast action and capture superb low-light images.

Advanced Search Technologies

With supplied Album Editor software, the DSC-G1 can search photos by color, face or similarity to another image. You can also search by preset labels (up to 50 possible labels) and combine search methods.

Slide Show with Music Playback

The DSC-G1 lets you combine images in Slide Show sequence, select your favorites and delete unwanted shots, add your own downloaded music tracks and use any of 5 transition effects (standard, simple, nostalgic, stylish or active) to make your show more entertaining.

9-Point Auto Focus.

Evaluates your shot at 9 points, instead of 5 -- so you’ll get great results even with off-center subjects that make interesting photo compositions.

High-Quality Video Clips

The DSC-G1 lets you shoot MS Video LV3/LV4 video clips with high resolution and compact file size, capturing moving images at up to 30 frames per second and allowing you to fit more video in your available memory capacity.
