F E A T U R E S1/2.7" 4.1 Megapixel Super HAD™ CCDSuper HAD (Hole AccumulationDiode) CCDs provide excellentimage quality by allowing morelight to pass to each pixel, increasingsensitivity and reducing noise.3X Digital ZoomSony’s Precision Digital Zoomprovides an additional 3Xmagnification without thejagged edges of other designs, resulting insmoother images.0 – 3.6X Smart Zoom™ Feature(at VGA Resolution)The Smart Zoom featureintelligently uses the full CCD tolet you zoom into the portion ofinterest by cropping the image size – thusavoiding the image degradation of Digital Zooms.Real Imaging ProcessorThe innovative Real ImagingProcessor in the DSC-P41 notonly improves picture quality andclarity but also improves camera responsetime, decreases shutter lag and improvesbattery stamina.Optical ViewfinderProvides accurate framing at eye level, greatfor added stability and following fast movingsubjects.1.5" LCD MonitorThe 1.5" 67K LCD Monitor makes framingshots and reviewing pictures easy.Auto Bright MonitoringTo help framing in low-or no-light situations,CCD gain is briefly increased to provide anextra bright display on the LCD viewfinder justbefore exposure.14-Bit DXP A/D ConversionSony’s 14-bit Digital EXtendedProcessor captures the rangebetween highlight and shadowwith up to 16,384 values, for extendeddynamic contrast and detail.5 Area Multi-Point Auto FocusBy evaluating 5 separate focusareas of the frame, Sony’sMulti-Point AF system canintelligently focus on the subject and avoidmistakenly focusing on the background.AF (Auto Focus) IlluminatorAn amber light briefly illuminatesthe subject, in low – or no – lightconditions, helping to establish apositive focus lock.Selectable Focus ModeMonitoring AF (Auto Focus) helps youanticipate the action by focusing evenbefore you press the shutter release.Multi-Pattern MeasuringIndependently light-metering 49points of the frame, Multi-PatternMeasuring establishes theoptimum exposure, even when highlight andshadow isn’t centered in the frame.Auto Daylight Synchro Fill FlashIf the Multi-Pattern Measuring systemdetermines the subject is backlit or in shadow,fill flash automatically fires to provide optimumexposure.Pre-Flash MeteringWith a momentary pre-flash, the camerailluminates the subject and sets exposurethrough the lens for accurate flash metering.Adjustable flash level and red-eye reductionensure great flash shots.Slow Shutter Noise ReductionDuring long exposures, SlowShutter NR captures the scene,and then the CCD noise patternwith a dark frame exposure. By subtracting thetwo, even long exposures can be clear.Memory Stick® Media and Memory StickPRO™ MediaDigital. Powerful.
