Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H7B, Digital Still Camera, 8.1 Megapixel, 15x Optical, 2x Digital Zoom Lens, 2.5" LCD Screen, Black

Shoot dramatic close-ups and sharp fast-action shots with the 8.1 megapixel Cyber-Shot DSC-H7 digital camera. The Carl Zeiss 15x optical zoom and Advanced Sports Mode with high shutter speed are perfect for crisp long shots and excellent detail when shooting at sporting events. Super SteadyShot image stabilization and high-sensitivity (ISO 3200) mode reduce blur when shooting without a flash and Face Detection technology brings out the best in faces.

You can also manually control the exposure and focus of the DSC-H7, making it ideal for more artistic shots. And with HD (high definition) output, photos can look even more spectacular when you share them with friends and family on HDTV screens. Bring long-distance subjects up close with the superb, pro-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens design with 15x optical zoom. For more power, the 25x HD digital zoom enlarges the center portion of the picture so you see even more detail.

The 8.1 megapixels give you more detail and definition for editing, cropping and making large digital prints. The advanced Super HAD CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise. To capture fast-moving subjects in split-second detail, the DSC-H7 provides a sports shooting mode that combines high shutter speed (1/4000 sec.) with intelligent continuous AF that responds more quickly to rapid motion.

A powerful flash provides extra illumination to light up subjects farther from your camera, with precise light control and the ability to adjust the flash for both front and rear sync when shooting at low-speed sync setting. 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 ultra-long-distance digital photos to capture more detail.

With Super SteadyShot image stabilization to minimize blur, high sensitivity mode (ISO 3200) lets you shoot effectively in low light without flash to preserve the mood. The DSC-H7 also has Clear RAW NR (Noise Reduction) image processing technology which helps suppress the color noise that can accompany high-sensitivity shooting. Automatically control focus, exposure, color and flash and reveal faces in shadow, make skin tones look more natural and eliminate harsh facial glare.

Use the large, bright LCD screen for composing shots, checking results and sharing your photos on location. An optical viewfinder allows shooting in traditional rangefinder camera style. In addition to its 2.5" LCD screen, the DSC-H7 has a built-in electronic color viewfinder that lets you shoot in traditional camera style and saves battery power by turning your LCD screen off. A built-in slot accepts the optional compact and high-capacity Memory Stick Duo media or Memory Stick PRO Duo media.
