DSC-W90 Shoot at the speed of life Life moves fast. Thanks to the Sony BIONZ™ processor, you can catch the most memorable moments before they pass you by. To grab a baby's smile or a soccer goal before it's gone, your camera processor needs to be as fast as your subject. Sony's BIONZ™ processor typically adjusts focus and exposure in less than half a second. After that, there's almost no "shutter lag." The shutter typically opens less than 0.01 second after you fully press the release button. (Times vary by camera.) The power of the BIONZ processor is also the secret behind Sony Face Detection, Dynamic Range Optimizer, Full HD 1080 output and even in-camera retouching!

To grab a baby’s smile or a soccer goal before it’s
gone, your camera processor needs to be as fast
as your subject. Sony’s BIONZ
processor typically adjusts focus and
exposure in less than half a second. After that, there’s almost no
“shutter lag.” The shutter typically opens less than 0.01 second after
you fully press the release button. (Times vary by camera.) The power
of the BIONZ processor is also the secret behind Sony Face Detection,
Dynamic Range Optimizer, Full HD 1080 output and even in-camera
retouching!
