Remember the Essentials
Sufficient memory is not included.
Don't get caught without memory, get a high-capacity memory card.
The sleek and stylish Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 offers many features that help you take stunning photographs. Built into the camera there is a beginner-friendly Function Guide that helps you navigate through the various functions and settings displayed on the LCD screen. The camera might be ultra-slim, but the 10.2 Megapixel Exmor R CMOS chip will allow you to make big prints. The camera performs well even in lowlight along with its High Sensitivity Mode with an ISO of 3200, Handheld Twilight Mode and Optical SteadyShot Image Stabilization.
Fast moving subjects are not a problem since the camera can capture 10 frames-per-second. This, along with Motion Detection that adjusts ISO sensitivity and increases the shutter speed when motion is detected, will help ensure that you capture the decisive moment. To really see your subject in motion, the camera can shoot 1080i AVCHD HD movies.
Both stills and video are composed and viewed on the 3.5" Xtra Fine LCD touchscreen display. The display gives you the ability to select the focus point with a simple touch, scroll through images by sliding your finger across the screen, and one-touch access to the menu. Even when shooting in a tight space the 25mm wide-angle Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 4X zoom lens will let you get your shoot. Other user friendly features include Intelligent Sweep Panorama, Face Detection, Smile Shutter, Anti-blink, iAudio and many more. The DSC-TX7 certainly is an extremely functional camera with having a beautiful form.
- Stylish Ultra-Slim Design
- The DSC-TX7 is slim enough to slip into a pocket or purse, so you can take it with you wherever you go.
- 10.2 Megapixel Back-Illuminated Exmor R CMOS Image Sensor
- The DSC-TX7 features a 10.2 Megapixel Exmor R CMOS image sensor that brings out the full resolving power of the camera's Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens to deliver extremely fast speed, high resolution, and stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain. In addition, the combined Exmor R CMOS sensor and BIONZ image processor delivers extremely fast 10fps, Anti Motion Blur, Handheld Twilight and 1080i movie modes.
- 3.5" Xtra Fine LCD™ Touch Screen Display w/TruBlack Technology
- A large 3.5" Xtra Fine LCD touch screen display w/TruBlack technology (921K pixels), the largest in Sony's Cyber-shot DSC line, makes it easy to view and share images with simple and fun touchscreen operation. With its Ultra AR film coating, which reduces reflections and increases contrast and brightness, viewing images on the LCD even in bright light is possible.
- Easy Touch Screen Interaction
- The DSC-TX7 offers intuitive functions on the multi-purpose touch screen, such as the ability to select the focus point with a simple touch, scroll through images by sliding your finger across the screen and one-touch access to the Menu. The display also features improved readability with list view and index view.
- Card Slots
- The camera has card slots for Memory Stick Duo media and SD/SDHC media
- Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens with 25mm Equivalent Wide 4x Optical Zoom
- The high-performance Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 4x optical zoom lens brings distant subjects closer for video recording as well as for outdoor, sports, and travel photos, and close-ups up to just under 0.39" (1cm) from the subject. A 25mm equivalent wide-angle lens allows you to take wider shots of a scene or a group in crowded spaces.
- Intelligent AF
- Thanks to Intelligent AF technology, capture fleeting moments like a child's adorable expression with the ultra-quick AF which locks focus in as little as 0.3 sec.
- Optical SteadyShot Image Stabilization
- Optical SteadyShot image stabilization uses a built-in gyro sensor to detect camera shake and automatically shifts the lens to help prevent blur without sacrificing image quality.
- Anti-Motion Blur Mode
- Capture cleaner and sharper images in low light for non landscape shots. When set in Anti Motion Blur Mode, the DSC-TX7 captures six images in a fraction of a second with a higher shutter speed and combines the data from all six to create a single image of extraordinary detail and eliminate subject blur, beyond the capability of traditional cameras.
- Handheld Twilight
- Capture cleaner and sharper night shots without using a tripod. When set to Handheld Twilight Mode, the DSC-TX7 captures six images in a fraction of a second with one press of the shutter, and combines the data from all six to create a single image of extraordinary detail and low noise. With these modes, you can capture images in low light without flash beyond the capability of traditional cameras.
- High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 3200)
- High ISO allows for faster shutter speed, so you can take photos indoors or in low light without the need for a flash. In addition to High Sensitivity Mode (ISO), you can select up to seven ISO settings (Auto, 125, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200) when shooting in Program Auto Mode to adjust sensitivity to your shooting conditions.
- Scene Modes
- The DSC-TX7 features 12 convenient scene modes: High Sensitivity, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Soft Snap, Landscape, Beach, Snow, Fireworks, High Speed Shutter, Underwater, Gourmet, and Pet.
- Backlight Correction HDR
- Shooting high-contrast scenes can often lead to washed out backgrounds and/or details lost in shadow. Backlight Correction HDR helps correct for this by taking two pictures at different exposure settings and processing the best elements of both into a single image for more natural looking shots.
- Easy Shooting Mode
- With Easy Shooting Mode, even beginners can take great photos. In Easy Shooting Mode, easy-to-understand basic instructions are displayed on the LCD screen and the camera switches to all automatic settings, removing several function choices and allowing you to focus on just your subject. Since this mode works together with Intelligent Scene Recognition, the camera selects the optimum setting for each scene. In addition, the Easy Shooting Mode simplifies Preview Mode.
- Intelligent (iAuto) Auto Mode
- Unlike traditional auto mode, Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode thinks for you by recognizing scenes, lighting conditions, faces, and adjusts the settings produce clear images and faces with natural skin tone and less blur. Take advantage of all the technology without leaving Auto mode. Take pictures from a kid on the playground, to landscape shots, to a beautiful flower or an indoor birthday party and get clear images without leaving Auto mode.
- Intelligent Sweep Panorama Mode
- Capture expansive landscapes with Intelligent Sweep Panorama Mode. Press shutter and sweep and the camera does the rest, continuously, shooting images and in one second stitching them together. This model even detects faces and moving subjects to stitch intelligently different widths to help avoid subject distortion.
- Face Detection Technology
- Face Detection technology detects up to 8 individual faces and adjusts focus, exposure, and flash to help deliver crisp, properly lit images of family and friends.
- Motion Detection
- Motion Detection, along with Face Motion Detection, adjusts ISO sensitivity and increases the shutter speed when movement is detected, reducing blur in moving subjects and faces.
- Smile Shutter Technology
- Smile Shutter technology captures a smile the moment it happens. Simply press the Smile Shutter button and the camera does the rest. Intelligent Scene Recognition can now be used together with Smile Shutter mode when the Intelligent Auto mode is on. This means that beautiful smiles can be captured with settings optimized for the particular scene, even in difficult conditions such as twilight and backlighting.
- Anti-Blink Function
- It's frustrating to think you've captured that perfect shot, only to review it later and discover one of your subjects blinked just as you pressed the shutter. When the camera is set to Soft Snap, the Anti-blink function captures two images, recording only the photo with less squinting or blinking. If a blink is detected in other shooting modes, a warning will be displayed after you take the shot.
- High Speed Shooting
- The DSC-TX7 can capture full 10.2 megapixel resolution images at up to 10 frames per second, helping to ensure that you capture the decisive moment such as the soccer ball flying into the goal. In addition, the DSC-TX7 employs a mechanical shutter that helps reduce distortion when continuously shooting moving subjects.
- Viewing modes
- Find your photos using the simple folder or calendar viewing modes.
- In-Camera Retouching Tools
- Retouch and enhance your photos on the go with in-camera trimming and Red-Eye Correction functions
- PhotoMusic
- PhotoMusic combines images with music (4 tracks, 5 minutes per track) to produce fun and entertaining slide shows with standard visual effects (Simple, Nostalgic, Active, and Stylish). Select from pre-loaded tracks on the camera or transfer your own from your compatible computer (sold separately)
- Creative Painting Tools
- Decorate your photos with words and drawings using the included paint pen or your finger. Have fun using more than 30 stamps and 15 types of picture frames and save new images at up to 5 megapixel resolution.
- Function Guide
- This beginner-friendly optional function helps navigate through the various functions and settings displaying the description of chosen functions or settings on the LCD screen.
- Lithium-ion Battery
- Included lithium-ion battery provides added convenience with longer lasting power than alkaline batteries (capacity of 230 images or aprox 115 minutes).
- Includes Sony PMBP (Picture Motion Browser) Software
- With the pre-installed Picture Motion Browser (PMB) Portable software the camera makes it easy to pre-select videos and images in the camera and conveniently upload them from the camera to a compatible PC and popular internet sharing sites without the need for any additional software or install.

Sony seems to be overlooked in quality in favor of the supposedly "big guns" in the camera industry. I feel that Sony can compare in many ways to Canon and Nikon in many of its digital cameras.
The TX7 is extremely pocketable. I love my Sony HX1, but I hesitate to take it everywhere - much more bulky than the TX7. The LCD screen on the TX7 is very sharp and bright, and the touch screen responds quickly and is easy to use. I have difficulties at times to get the Canon S90 to focus automatically in macro situations. The TX7 has a great macro. It focuses extremely close and the detail is very good (flowers). Generally, the color is accurate, and it is much better satuarated than the WX1 which seems more subtle and washed out . The hand-held twilight and anti-motion blur is a Sony original, and these features all work very well. You will also notice a difference in backlit images when the camera is in the new HDR mode. Sweep Panorama is easy and fun - no more image stitching on the computer.
The TX7 has very good photo quality but excells in video. I use both stills and videos for my video shows I put together, so I need decent quality for both. I dislike having to carry around a still camera and camcorder also. My new computer can handle AVCHD well. On the TX7, I am able to use the highest quality possible setting for video (FH). Video is smooth and sharp-no shimmering or blurring while panning. The zoom is silent, and focusing is immediate while zooming. There doesn't seem to be any focus finding. I like that Sony put the stereo microphone in front of the camera instead of on the top where fingers sometimes end up blocking the mic.
These seems to be the only drawbacks of the TX7. A finger can get in the way of the lens - it's just a matter of holding this type of ultracompact properly. I wish it had a 2.8 or wider aperture (to be more versatile). Sometimes, I miss the Vivid/Sepia/ B & W features (this can be done in a good video editing program), and the Sony typical cross, partial color and fish-eye filters.
The TX7 is not for people who desire much manual control. It is an excellent point and shoot- a great small all-arounder with very good image quality and fantastic video. It's also fun to use.

I bought this camera from B&H and gave it some test right after it arrived.
It's a slick, nice looking, small camera with sliding lens cover (sometimes is rough to slide)
The image quality is where this camera does not shine.
Extreme softness at the image corners, smudged details, non-editable wide angle distorting when using at 25mm.
The camera lens definitely has issues. I got a chance to talk to some people who own the same model of camera and they confirmed the the problem described above.

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 Digital Camera (Blue):
very stylish pocketable camera
awesome large touch screen
easy to use and learn
isweep panoramic feature
lots of neat features
I wanted to love this camera, I really really did, but the most important feature of a camera is picture quality. I use fully automatic mode 99 percent of the time, unless its night and I use twilight mode etc etc. Unfortunately the pictures come out over saturated and unnatural looking in low light conditions. I called sony and they had me change the white balance, but it still made skin tones look orange, hair have red tones etc etc. Side by side with my old little Canon, in fully automatic mode, hands down Canon comes out ahead by a long shot. I was looking for a more current point and shoot camera, and this Sony camera is a lot of fun, but it had to go back.

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 Digital Camera (Blue):
I haven't had this very long yet, but I purchased it after reading many glowing reviews and because it had features such as the Twilight mode and panorama shot capability that I wanted.
One thing that is great about this, is that it comes with a battery charger for the wall socket and a dock with USB and video transfer ports so that you don't have to have a media card reader on your computer. The camera has a partially customizeable menu screen that you can tailor so that the functions you will be using or changing most often are the easiest to access. Also, the camera has a modest internal memory so you can play around with it right away even if you forget to buy a memory stick with it.
There are a few minor drawbacks. I usually prefer intuitive interfaces. If I have to keep clicking on menu icons to find the setting I want to adjust, that bothers me. Also, I would have prefered if I didn't have to install the accompanying software for the computer to recognize my camera was plugged in. I'd rather it be plug and play with optional mostly unnecessary photo managing program. Lastly, the camera surface and the LCD screen will probably need to be wiped of finger prints with LCD screen cleaner and a soft cloth as needed.
Overall, this camera performs as expected, which is good.

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 Digital Camera (Blue):
I bought this camera after extensive research online looking for the best camera for archive document shooting.All sources recommended the Sony DSC-TX7 or its older sister, the TX9. [...] The camera is just awesome and even it was meant to be a low-light success for my archive documents, it had turned out to be an all-condition success. I took photos with the camera in a snow blizzard, sunny days, cloudy days, well-lit and poorly-lit museums and other indoor spaces, smoky and extremely dark night clubs and of course - archive documents in the usual poorly lit archive reading rooms.All point-and-shoot photos were beautiful using the camera's intelligent auto adjustment mode. If you have time and/or you're shooting a still photo, the camera provides around 20 different shooting modes including an amazing hand-held twilight mode (no flash) and twilight portrait (flash on) for poorly lit sceneries and snow mode that yields beatiful pictures in snowy scenery.In what concerns video - the camera is taking hi-def videos in amazing quality. The only problem for me was that I could view my videos only on my TV and not on my computer (probably due to codec problem), so I had to change the prefs to loe-res videos.I was extremely surprised with the interesting sweep-panorama mode that the camera provides. It looks fantastic on the camera, viewing it with the camera's built-in gyro-controlled screen, but it looks not bad at all also when viewing it as a regular panorama on the computer.To sum up: the camera is a real bargain and offers a great cost-effectiveness ratio, easy to use touchscreen interface and great results in all shooting conditions.

Quick easy take along all round camera. Panoramas for those scenic shots with great low level light capabilities. If you have problems with the battery door either the battery/memory card is not in all way or it could be in the wrong way either will keep the door from manually closing. Screen is beautiful with it's high pixelation be sure to get extra batteries.

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 Digital Camera (Blue):
For the past few years I have been wanting a camera that has the panoramic features this camera has. I have enjoyed and been surprised at the quality of images I have gotten from this camera. The only area that I am not completely happy with at this time is the low light capabilities this camera has. However saying this I must also say I have not fully experimented with these features as of this time.

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 Digital Camera (Blue):
After trying several point and shoots, and I do mean several, this has been the best. The great points include compact, convenience with decent photos. The video is exceptional and the main reason I purchased this camera instead of the Nikon's s6000. The pictures are superior as well. They are definitely not slr quality, but they are better than others in the same class. The presets are acceptable, but I would LOVE to see access to a manual setting. The best pictures and video I have seen outside a slr is the canon powershot sx30is- but it is extremely bulky and heavy. The sony is awesomely compact and the slide cover protects the lens. The flash leaves something to be desired, and hampers indoor pictures, but overall I like the camera. The outdoor/natural lit pictures are great.

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX7 Digital Camera (Blue):
As my kids get older, i started to look for a good camcorder for home videos.
I accidentally stumbled on this camera....
This is a great camera!! But I was really impressed with the performance in low light.
I was able to take pictures in really low light settings (dark parking lot) an the quality was amazing.
It is not as slim as the old cybershots... but I guess thats expected with a touch screen.
Definitely buy a screen protector before using
