Click on the T100 for a 360° QTVR tour

The 8-megapixel DSC-T100 camera holds the top of the line spot with the most powerful zoom and largest LCD screen in Sony’s T-series to date (8/2007). With its Carl Zeiss® 5x optical zoom lens and 3-inch LCD screen, this will match your style, and at less than a half-inch thick, can easily slip into the smallest of purses or pockets. They can be fashionably protected with four different styles of matching camera cases in colors such as pink, red, green, grey, crème, brown and black (sold separately.)

Sony’s new T-series cameras feature high-definition output so you can bring your photos to the party and take full advantage of the HD equipment already in your home. Once you have viewed photos in the utmost clarity, color and detail on an HDTV set, there’s no going back to huddling around a PC.

Shooting in low light doesn't have to result in blurry, grainy photos. Sony’s Super Steady Shot® optical image stabilization counters camera shake and stabilizes images so you can easily shoot with longer exposure times. Armed with high light sensitivity (up to ISO 3200), you can also shoot at higher shutter speeds without using the cameras’ flash and spoiling the mood of the pictures. Sony’s Clear RAW ™ noise reduction technology will help reduce the imager noise common in high ISO low-light exposures.

This new model is powered by the Bionz™ processing engine, first used in Sony’s Alpha digitalSLR camera system. Not only does this robust processing engine deliver the fast image processing speeds needed to produce color-rich, detailed pictures for true high-definition photo viewing, it also speeds up the cameras’ response times and extends battery life.

Slide the lens covers down and the T100 is ready to shoot in less than a second and prepared for the next shot in about a second. It will keep snapping for the duration of the party – on a full charge, up to 380 shots for the T100 model.

Sony’s new cameras have three accessory options for high-definition photo viewing. All are compatible with the Sony VMC-MHC1 HD component cable for simple connection to an HDTV set. They can also be connected to the new Sony CSS-HD1 high-definition Cyber-shot Station™ with a bundled component cable and a remote commander. Connect all your devices to the station just one time and it also works as a charger for the camera.
