[. . . ] Sony's advanced Super HADTM (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise. HD Output1 Thanks to Sony, your photo album can go high-def -- with direct HD output1 to compatible HDTV screens, so you can view DSC-H7 still photos in spectacular high definition clarity and detail. HD Slide Show with Music It's the high-definition viewing experience that makes photos come alive on compatible HDTV screens, accompanied by your choice of visual effects and any of four preset musical selections stored in memory or your favorite MP3 tunes downloaded from PC to your camera for use as background music. [. . . ] HD Slide Show with Music It's the high-definition viewing experience that makes photos come alive on compatible HDTV screens, accompanied by your choice of visual effects and any of four preset musical selections stored in memory or your favorite MP3 tunes downloaded from PC to your camera for use as background music. Face Detection By automatically controlling focus, exposure, color and flash, this new Sony feature reveals faces in shadow, makes skin tones look more natural and eliminates harsh facial glare -- to help bring out every expression on every face in every shot, so you'll capture the personalities and emotions that make memories come alive. High Sensitivity Mode With Super SteadyShot® image stabilization to minimize blur, High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 3200) lets the DSC-H7 shoot effectively in low light without flash to preserve the mood -- and Sony's original Clear RAWTM NR (Noise Reduction) image processing technology helps suppress the color noise that can accompany highsensitivity shooting. Advanced Sports Mode To capture fast-moving subjects in splitsecond detail, the DSC-H7 provides a Sports shooting mode that combines high shutter speed (1/4000 sec. ) that responds more quickly to rapid motion -- a great way to catch the perfect moment in sports, children's games, pet tricks and more. Long-Distance Flash A powerful flash provides extra illumination to light up subjects farther from your camera, with precise light control and the ability to adjust flash for both front and rear sync when shooting at low-speed sync setting. Super SteadyShot®Optical Image Stabilization Other image stabilization systems crop in to compensate for " camera shake" -- but with the Super SteadyShot® system, optical sensors detect camera movement and send correcting signals to a stabilization lens that allows even ultralong-distance digital photos to capture more detail with less camera shake distortion. 9-Point Auto Focus Because an off-center subject can make your shot more interesting, the DSC-H7 can measure auto-focus precision at 9 points on your screen -- giving you greater creative freedom to compose your image.
