Sony announced the WX30 digital camera. The Sony CyberShot WX30 has a 16.2 megapixel backlit Exmor R CMOS sensor and a 5x zoom camera. Similar with the Sony TX55 announced, the Sony CyberShot WX30 uses the ‘By Pixel Super Resolution’ image processing to provide the ‘Clear Image Zoom’ feature claimed to double the effective zoom range at full resolution.
Installed with a CMOS chip’s fast read-out to provide 10 fps continuous shooting in a burst of up to 10 shots as well as 1080i50 HD movie shooting in European versions of this camera.
Here’s the statement from Sony:
“
Super-compact and sleekly curvaceous, the Cyber-shot™ WX30 offers an equally tempting range of imaging options for stills, Full HD video and 3D shooting. It’s also the first-ever Cyber-shot™ WX-series model featuring a spacious 7.5cm (3”) Xtra Fine LCD wide touch screen for beautifully simple fingertip operation.
Best-ever stills and Full HD movie shooting
Each camera features a highly sensitive Exmor R™ CMOS sensor with 16.2 effective megapixels resolution. Whether you’re shooting still images or Full HD video, you’ll be rewarded with incredible image detail and ultra-low picture noise – even in low light conditions.
Both Cyber-shot™ models introduce brand-new ‘Clear Image Zoom’ that boosts magnification without lowering pixel count in the final image. Exclusive to Sony, ‘By Pixel Super Resolution’ processing further extends the camera’s 5x optical zoom range, allowing full-resolution 16.2 megapixel images with a maximum 10x zoom.
‘By Pixel Super Resolution’ technology also significantly boosts still image quality during movie recording. At a touch of the shutter button, ‘Dual Rec’ grabs detail-packed 12 megapixel-level still photos without interrupting Full HD video shooting.
