The DSC-TX5 Sony Cyber-shot digital camera is a slim, pocket-sized stylish digital camera that has a secret: it is waterproof. The Sony TX5 is mainly based on the combination of a 10.2-megapixel CMOS sensor and a 4x optical zoom. Sensor of the Sony TX5 is what is known as a back illuminated (BSI) design, which means that the circuit is positioned on the side of non-capture of the light sensor, allowing the maximum area on the side of sensor to be employed in gathering light. This should result in greater sensitivity and reduced noise compared to a non-BSI sensor for the same sensitivity. Effective range of focal lengths from 4.43 mm to 17.7 mm, equivalent to the fashion of a range of 25 to 100mm in the images. This is equivalent to just a generous a moderate angle to telephoto. While shooting high definition video, the culture of the sensor increases the effective focal length of a range of 28 to 112mm, and standard definition movies in the range from 34 to 136 mm.
The TX5 from Sony has a maximum aperture varies from f/3.5 af/4.6 let all the zoom range. At wide angle the minimum aperture is f/6.3. To help fight against camera shake, the Sony DSC-TX5 optical lens includes an image stabilization mechanism that works in conjunction with a high-gyro sensor to detect and correct camera shake. As is unfortunately the norm for most compact cameras these days, the Sony Cyber-shot TX5 does not provide any form of optical viewfinder or electronic. Instead, Sony has opted for a "3.0 Clear Photo LCD Plus display with a resolution of 230 000 points, more or less equal to a resolution of 320 x 240 points with three points for color. Superimposed on the LCD screen is a touch screen, allowing you to double as an intuitive input device operations such as navigation or drag and drop is used to control the camera functions.
Perhaps the most important feature of the Sony TX5 is its robust body, which for the first time in a Cyber-shot Sony is protected against a range of hazards, including water, dust, shock and freezing. The Sony TX5 is rated waterproof and dustproof IP58 according to IEC 60529 standards, which means it is protected against dust (not completely dust-tight, but tight enough to dust affect the function preventDefault), and is suitable for immersion in one meter or below, under conditions specified by the manufacturer. In the case of Sony TX5 said that the camera works to a depth of three feet under water as long as an hour. The impact tests must protect the device against accidental falls within five feet high, which deserves the method MIL-STD-810F 516.5-Shock assessment. Finally, the evidence can be used to freeze at temperatures up to 14 degrees Fahrenheit / -10 Celsius and Fahrenheit as high as 104 / 40 degrees Celsius.
A nine-point autofocus system includes the ability to face detection, and can recognize up to eight faces in a scene. The Face Detection function can be disabled if desired, and can then be programmed to give priority to the adult or children's faces. The AF system can also operate in center-weighted or spot AF. ISO sensitivity ranges Sony DSC-TX5 from 125 to 3200 equivalent, multi-model, and exposures are calculated using, center-weighted or spot. At -2.0 exposure compensation in 1/3EV increments is available, and to help capture contrasting scenes, Sony TX5 includes the Dynamic Range Optimizer, although its strength is not adjustable by the user and fixed in position is rather standard. Nine white balance settings are available, including automatic, manual, and seven presets. Shutter speeds from 1 / 1, 600 to two seconds. Burst is possible for up to ten shots at full resolution, with a generous rate of ten frames per second. A built-in four mode flash operates at a maximum distance of 9.5 meters wide, 7.9 meters at telephoto, using ISO Auto.
As well as still images, the Sony TX5 can capture both high definition 720p (1280 x 720 pixels) or standard definition VGA (640 x 480 pixels) video at a rate of 29.97 frames per second. Movies are recorded with the MP4 compression, and in particular mono. The Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 also includes an unusual feature sweep panorama that can capture up to 100 images automatically simply by moving the camera through the scene, then these points the camera in a single image with a maximum of one 258 degrees field of view.
Stores images on Sony TX5 Secure Digital and SDHC, but not the types of new SDXC. The Sony TX5 is also compatible with Sony Memory Stick PRO Duo property, and includes 45MB of internal memory, enough to provide some of the most important pictures should accidentally leave your flash cards at home. Power comes from a rechargeable battery for Sony InfoLithium NP-BN1, and Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 is considered good for about 250 shots per charge. Connectivity options include both USB 2.0 high speed data, and standard and high definition component video output 1080i.
The bundle includes products from Sony Picture Motion Browser v5.0 and Picture Motion Browser Portable (5.0 for Windows / 1.1 for Mac OS) applications. Sony also includes a limited warranty and one year of work. The price for the Sony DSC-TX5 is about $ 350 in the United States, and the device will be available in silver, black, pink, green, red, and versions from April 2010.
