Features
“Exmor R” CMOS Image SensorThe 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.

Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® LensThe 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 Focus shoots close-ups up to just under ½” from the subject.

3.5” Xtra Fine LCD™ touch screenA large 3.5” Xtra Fine LCD™ touch screen display w/TruBlack™ technology (921K pixels), the largest of Sony’s Cyber-shot DSC line makes it easy for viewing and sharing images with simple and fun touch screen operation.

Easy Touch Screen InteractionThe DSC-TX7 offers intuitive functions to 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.

Anti-Motion Blur ModeCapture 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 higher shutter speed.

Handheld TwilightWhen 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.

High speed shootingThe 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.

Backlight Correction HDRShooting 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

HDMI OutputThe High-Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI™) is a compact audio/video connector interface for transmitting uncompressed digital streams.

Self-Portrait TimerSelf-Portrait Timer helps take the guesswork out of self portraits by utilizing Face Detection technology to recognize when your face enters the frame.

Stylish Ultra-slim DesignMeasuring at just 3 7/8" x 2 3/8" x 23/32", the DSC-TX7 is slim enough to slip into a pocket or purse, so you can take it with you wherever you go.

TransferJet™ technologyTransferJet™ technology, developed by Sony® and advanced and promoted by consortium of 18 other companies, allows you to transfer up to ten files between two TransferJet enabled devices just by touching them together, without the hassle of hunting for cables or the complication of pairing.

BIONZ™ Image ProcessorThe BIONZ™ image processor delivers the high resolution and fast performance you expect from a Sony® digital camera.

Anti-blink FunctionWhen 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.

Face Detection technologySony’s Face Detection technology can automatically distinguish between children and adults. Face Detection technology detects up to eight individual faces and adjusts flash, focus, exposure, and white balance to help deliver crisp, properly lit images of family and friends.
