Remember the Essentials

Sufficient memory is not included. Don't get caught without memory, get a high-capacity memory card.

When the folks at Sony designed the Sony Cyber-shot T90 Digital Camera they somehow managed to comfortably squeeze a 12.1 megapixel (1/2.3") Super HAD CCD imaging sensor and a Carl Zeiss-designed 4x (35 - 140 mm equivalent) power zoom into a sleekly designed brushed aluminum body that measures a mere 5/8" thick. As icing on the cake they tossed in 720p HD video capture with stereo sound. Are we having fun yet or what?

The camera's 3.0" Clear Photo LCD touch-screen display enables you to control all of the cameras functions by simply tapping on the menu screens, and there's an impressive selection of exposure and scene mode selections including an Easy Shooting Mode for those wishing to keep things nice and simple. There are also numerous in-camera retouching tools available for enhancing your pictures post-capture.

Still images can be captured at 8 levels of JPEG compression and video with stereo sound at 3 levels of image compression to best fit your needs. To further enhance your pictures, the Cyber-T90 has a PHOTOMUSIC feature, which combines music and a selection of visual effects into your still image slideshows and video clips.

For admiring your pictures on a grander scale, you can output images at sizes up to and exceeding 13x19", or view them in high-definition on a Sony BRAVIA or similarly compatible HDTV using the optional VMC-MHC2 HD output adapter cable.

The Sony Cyber-shot T90 is powered by a rechargeable lithium-ion battery, which is good for about 200 images (or about 100 minutes of video), and along with 11MB of internal memory, records images onto Memory Stick PRO and Memory Stick DUO PRO (up to 16GB) media.

12.1 Megapixel Super HAD CCD Imaging Sensor
Capture brilliantly sharp images for print sizes of up Super A3 and still have ample wiggle room to crop into your image files when you need to get in tighter than the zoom lens allowed at the time of image capture
Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 4x Power Zoom
The Cyber-shot T90 features a 35 - 140 mm equivalent Carl Zeiss-designed power zoom lens. Containing 12 elements in 10 groups (with 4 aspheric surfaces), the T900 should is an ideal for capturing most all of your day-tripping activities
3.0" Clear Photo Touch-Screen LCD
A bright 3.0" 230,000-dot touch-screen LCD allows you make all of your camera adjustments as well as compose and review your images with a minimal amount of squinting
BIONZ Image Processor
A Sony BIONZ image processor guarantees life-like color, improved shadow and highlight detail, along with quick start-up times and quick-to-respond camera performance
Intelligent Auto Mode (iAuto)
iAuto takes all of the guesswork out of selecting the best shooting mode by analyzing the scene and making all appropriate adjustments required to capture an optimized image, and it performs this little trick in less than 1/30th of a second. To accomplish this feat iAuto takes advantage of other T90 features including Scene Recognition, Face Recognition, and Optical SteadyShot
Shoot Stills and Video
The Cyber-shot T90 captures JPEG still images at several levels of compression, and video clips with sound (mono) at 3 levels of MPEG4 compression. In video mode you can capture up to 29 minutes of continuous shooting in 720p format (or up to 2GB)
Automatic or Manual Scene Selections
For choosing the best exposure parameters for each scene you capture the T90 offers you a choice of manually choosing from a selection of 14 exposure modes, 10 Scene modes or you can set the camera to Intelligent Scene mode (iSCN) and the camera will automatically select the best out of 8 auto Scene modes
Face Detection and Smile Shutter
To better guarantee optimized portraits the Cyber-shot T90 can detect up to 8 faces in a scene and program the camera to produce exposures optimized for clean skin tones and contrast levels. The camera's Smile Shutter feature prevents the camera from taking an exposure until it detects a smile on the primary face(s). There's also an Anti-Blink function that detect blinking eyes as you press the shutter button
Sharp Images Even Under Low-light Conditions
The T90 combines dual image stabilization technologies to better ensure sharp images. When set to SteadyShot mode, the camera quickly captures 2 images and combines the best elements of each into a single optimized photograph. When shooting under low-light conditions, the camera's High Sensitivity Mode boosts the sensor's ISO sensitivity levels up to 3200 to further guarantee sharp images regardless of lighting conditions
In-Camera Retouching, Creative Painting, and Re-Sizing Tools
The Cyber-shot T90 features a selection of retouching tools that allow you to perform a variety of post-capture image improvements including Trimming and Red-eye reduction, Soft Focus, Partial Color, Fisheye Lens, Cross Filter, Radial Blur, Retro, Happy Face, Unsharp Masking, and image re-sizing to best fit your output needs.

          Comments about Sony DSC-T90 Cyber-shot Digital Camera (Titanium):

          I've only had the camera about a week and haven't had too much time to mess around with it, but so far I really like it. It's really small, which is nice but I think may make it difficult to operate for some people. I have really small hands (sz 4 wedding ring) so I have no problem with the touch screen interface, but I could see how a man with average sized hands might have a problem accidentally hitting the wrong tab on the settings. The color quality of the pictures is great. The intelligent auto seems to work well, as does the face detection technology. The video works ok... the audio is great but I think the image quality could be better (could be that I just need to mess with the settings though). The only other kind of negative thing about the camera is that "titanium" looks pretty pink. (Not a problem, since I'm a girl... but something a guy may want to consider :)
