The Cyber-shot T200 complements exquisite HD imaging quality with exciting innovations like the new ‘Smile Shutter’ as well as a clear, wide, extra large touchscreen.


Innovative Design with Touchscreen LCD

The slim design DSC200 incorporates a 3 inch touch-sensitive LCD screen for viewing images and has full control over the camera functions. Clear Photo LCD Plus technology ensures superb clarity and colour reproduction, and an anti-reflective AR coating on the LCD screen, maximises contrast and visibility even when shooting outdoors in bright conditions. The screen’s wide 16:9 aspect ratio offers ideal proportions for viewing images on any connected

Like an HD Ready television.
Tapping any point on the screen immediately locks focus on that part of the image, while touching a face on screen turns on Face Detection. During playback, a brief touch anywhere on screen zooms in on that part of the image for quick checking.


Megapixels

Digital photos are made up of dots of coloured light called pixels (picture element). To make a photo requires millions of pixels (Megapixels). The more Megapixels a camera has, the smoother and clearer the photos will be. So, crisp, clear images are assured courtesy of the 8.1 effective Megapixel sensor and Real Imaging Processor.


Double Anti-Blur

Double Anti-Blur

Sony’s Double Anti-blur solution teams Super SteadyShot optical image stabilisation with a maximum sensitivity of ISO 3200. This reduces the chances of spoiled pictures while shooting handheld indoors or at dusk without flash. Sony Clear RAW NR processing reduces colour noise and luminance noise for more natural pictures at high sensitivity settings.


Zoom

Zoooom

The high quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens gives a powerful 3x optical zoom – great for pulling distant subjects in closer.


New Smile Shutter function

This enables the camera to automatically react to a smile – a first for digital photography.
This auto shutter system is capable of identifying when someone smiles and will immediately take a shot without you needing to press the shutter - bringing more fun to informal portraits, family shots and other ‘people pictures’. If there are several people in the frame, the shutter only fires when the main subject –
selected using the touchscreen – smiles. A sequence of up to six smiling shots can be taken without needing to manually press the shutter. So you can always have pictures of children or adults looking happy in every shot!


Face Detection Technology

Face Detection Technology

The easy-to-use Face Detection capability helps photographers of all abilities capture great-looking ‘people pictures’ without the risk of spoiled shots. Face Detection automatically adjusts exposure, flash and other settings. Enhanced autofocus performance and advanced eye detection ensure beautifully sharp portraits with natural skin tones – even at high zoom settings, in low light or with moving subjects.
Touching a face on the LCD screen of the camera turns on Face Detection, what could be easier?


Photo TV HD Full HD image display

It’s easy to enjoy the finest quality High Definition images captured with the T200 on a BRAVIA or HD Ready display (HD output adapter cable required) so you can share your images with friends and family. Music can accompany the slideshows for an extra dimension of enjoyment to your photos. Just pick from four visual effects (Simple, Nostalgic, Active and Stylish) and four preset musical accompaniments – then watch the show onscreen with HDTV image quality. The slideshows can be personalised further with MP3 background music tracks imported from a PC.

    Amazing !!
    I put a lot of research before buying a camera as anyone would do and honestly, this range of cameras has mixed reviews. I loved the style and design of this camera as soon as I saw it however, I read the reviews at zdnet which, for me, provides the most accurate reviews. According to them T100 is the best out of T200 and T300 with T300 having major picture quality issues. Hence, I decided to go for T200 because it had significant advantages over T100 and T300.

    1) The Look- From the photos I was amazed and when I saw it in real I fell in love. It looks amazing and makes all other digital cameras look like toys !!

    2) Picture Quality- The most important feature ! Well, I have been using this camera for over a month and I have really taken LOTS of photos. All of them were amazing and not even one had problem. Abt the complaints of Red-eye brightness etc problems mentioned in another reviews-- well there are numerous functions provided to modify the images taken. So if at all by some mishap ur image comes out improper then u can simply modify it within the cam. Trust me its great in that respect too.

    3) Interface & Control- The 3.5" display looks fantastic and the usage is very easy. I browsed through the manual for 30 mins max. and I was able to get all the functionality properly. The touch screen makes this camera feel even more advanced.

    For me 8.1 Megapixels are more than enough for mindblowing pictures for normal/personal use. I love the camera- its compact, looks great and takes amazing pictures !! Want anything else from a digital camera ??

    Excellent
    I spent a long time researching because i wanted to find the perfect camera, I read some bad and some good reviews about the t200 but i eventually bought it and im extremely happy with my purchase.

    The picture quality is great and there are loads of settings so you can get just the right shot. Even in low lighting the pictures still come out excellent.

    I love the touch screen and it means a 3.5 inch LCD which i also love!

    My favourite feature is the close up macro shots you can get.

    I highly recommend the this camera!

    Sony T200 - awesome!
    This camera is possibly the best compact out there for size and spec. I spent a few days looking at different cameras. This is the best by far. Cracking pics and very easy to use.
    I ordered mine shortly after christmas and came very fast.
    Very impressed!
    Great price too. £269 in the Sony shop and other outlets.

    Cool Camera. Red Eye a Problem
    I read a lot of reviews before biting the bullet and buying this camera. I had a Sony camera previous to this and really liked it, so stuck to Sony again, especially as Sony seems to have the fastest shutter reaction times, which I thought was important for taking pictures of kids.

    I really like the 3.5" touch screen. The menus are easy to use, etc. The quality of the movies it takes are really good, and I've found that it is so much easier than taking my dedicated camcorder with me. Just get a big memory card. It's a great pocket size. The smile shutter is quite cool, but pretty much a gimmick. The outdoor pictures are really good, and the indoor ones are okay.

    There are a couple of niggles which I am a little disappointed with .. Because of the compact size and the placement of the lens,you have to be careful not to accidentally put your finger over the lens. Red-eye is the biggest disappointment. Even with red-eye reduction turned on, almost all my photos taken with flash have some degree of red-eye. It is a real pain, having to use software to take out the red-eye. In fact I would even go so far as to say that I don't think the red-eye reduction does much good.

    In summary, I like this camera, but I am very disappointed with the amount of red-eye. (My old, cheaper, Sony camera was better). However, great looking camera, easy to use, I like the large touch screen, and I think the movie quality and sound is excellent. Overall I would recommend this camera, but not if red-eye is a big issue.
