Superior Electronics, Amazing

Simplicity

(

alpha) DSLR-A100 camera, Sony

Advanced Lenses and Accessories

The Sony®

sophisticated array of lenses and

accessories

-- including precision

®, Dynax and A-

sold worldwide.

10 MP APS

-size CCD imager

A large APS-size CCD imager allows

more light to pass to each pixel,

increasing sensitivity and reducing

noise -- and providing greater detail

when you make big prints or crop in

close on your subject.

Super SteadyShot® Image Stabilization

When you shoot with high sensitivity, the

shutter remains open longer

-- so to

compensate for shaky hands or fast-

moving subjects, the Sony®

Super

SteadyShot® system automatically

reduces image blur. And because it

works in-camera, you’

ll get the benefit

of Super SteadyShot® stabilization with

every lens you use.

Sharp, Clear Photos that Preserve the

Mood

With high

-sensitivity (ISO 1600)

shooting, the Sony®

α

(

alpha) DSLR-

A100 camera captures great photos

without flash even in low light -- which

makes it an ideal system camera for

shooting without a tripod or in

locations (like museums and churches)

where flash is prohibited.

Anti

-

Dust Technology

Changing lenses in a DSLR can allow

dust to enter the camera

-- so to keep

the CCD imager clean for better

pictures, the Sony

®

α

(

alpha) DSLR-A100

camera utilizes both static-

free anti

-

dust

coating on the CCD filter and anti-

dust

vibration that automatically shakes the

CCD to dislodge dust each time the

camera is shut off.

Dynamic Range Optimizer

To recover details in dark or bright

areas of the picture, the Sony

®

α

(

alpha) DSLR-A100 camera provides

two levels of Dynamic Range

Optimization: Normal DRO, to improve

shadow detail using standard gamma

curves for fast shot

-to-

shot response

time, or Advanced DRO, to adjust

dynamic range area-by-

area for the

greatest precision.

Bionz™

Image Processor

At the heart of the Sony

®

α

(

alpha)

DSLR-A100 camera is the advanced

Bionz™

Image Processor, using

hardware-based Large Scale Integrated

(LSI) circuitry that responds ten times

faster than software image processors --

improving camera response time,

handling Dynamic Range Optimization

processing and extending Stamina®

battery life.

Eye-

Start

®

Autofocus System

Some DSLR systems don’

t start focusing

until the shutter button is half

-

pressed

--

but that can slow down camera

response. The Sony

®

α

(

alpha) DSLR-

A100 camera begins its precision

autofocus adjustments the moment you

bring your eye to the viewfinder, to

capture fast

-

action subjects other

cameras might blur.
