The folks at Sony outdid themselves when they designed the Sony Cyber-shot T900 Digital Camera. Somehow they 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 a 3.5" (921,600-dot) touch-screen LCD, 720p HD video capture with stereo sound. Are we having fun yet or what?
The camera's truly hi-definition LCD 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-T900 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 T900 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.
