To understand that possible to use the new camera from Sony, not it is necessary to read the instruction. On colorful sticker on body you will understand this: 3,3-megapixel camera with size of the frame 2048*1536, with battery Stamina InfoLithium, with possible recording 3000 pictures or work 3 hours, there is 6* Precision Digital Zoom, not only Still but also Movie (Mpeg EX), memory - Memory Stick and lens from storied Carl Zeiss - Vario-Sonnnar.
The features of the lens - diaphragm 2/2,5-8, focal length 7 21 mms (34 102 mms for 35 mms of the frame). The similar lenses are installed on many modern digital camera (either as matrix 8,93 mms 3.34 megapixel CCD Sony). And they really good - on 4 megapixel Sony DSC-S85.
But here is zoom not only 6* Digital, but 3* optical and 2* digital. The design differs from previous DSC-S70 camera (traditional with nearly central lens, rather then Sony c lateral fastening ), 14 bit (against 12) on colour, management and some new function. The camera is already sold in shops and cost little (700-800 USD) for its class. On quality picture camera does not yield and more expensive 3 megapixel device. The concept of management, instruction and the price allow to refer the camera to class of very good amateur, heavy body and good picture to more high category. Probably, so Sony tries to promote their own products with Memory Stick - offerring high class of the product on low prices for mass buyer.
Control of the camera simple. There is modes completely automatic function to exposures and autofocus, priority of the endurance (from 1/1000 before 8 sec) and diaphragms, manual modes of the focusing and exposures, of a plot programs (the portrait, landscape, twilight flash and long endurance), control power flashes (three levels) and its mode (forced, auto, is disconnected), macro mode. The navigation on computer menu (the format of the file, size, degree of the compression, power of the flash, filter to sharpnesses and softenings, artistic filters : B&W, sepia, negative, view mode) is realized by means of buttons menu. In mode "clip" camera will write not only MPEG1 file (320*240, 320 HQ, 160*112) but also series GIF frames 160*120 10 frames in 40 cartoons or 80*72 on 2 frames in 350 cartoons. New MPEG EX allows to write the clip with permit before 320*240 and frequency 8 frames in sec - quality not very high, but then duration record is limited only by size of the card to memories, but here is 320 HQ with frequency 16 frames in sec, but buffer manages since 15 seconds of such clip only. Possible write the sound as accompaniment of each picture, save simultaneously with JPEG file his variant for e-mail, save not compressed TIFF (only full frame 2048*1536) together with JPEG (so on 8 MB card to memories from standard set nor one frame TIFF will write). Operative memory of the camera quick and big - in mode burst 2 possible write the contract two files with gap in 0,8 sec (in test with endurance in 1/60 with for JPEG 2048*1536). There is optical viewfinder beside cameras and 1,8" LCD TFT 123200 (560*220) monitor. Adjusting the camera can be displayed both on big monitor and on LCD-display of the condition. For functioning the system of autofocus there is searchlight in condition of low luminosity, which shines enough brightly. And in instructions is not recommended shine him in eye.
The camera is easy to connect the external flash through ACC terminal, external power supply unit/charger AC-L10A/B/C for battery InfoLITHIUM NP-FM50 (time of the charge 150 min., time of the work at removal with included by screen 150 mines.). For connection to computer USB interface, to television set/video/card of the seizure of the scenes standard A/V cable (PAL or NTSC).
In automatic mode of the focusing and exposures to caught the movinging object is simple. The tail can turn out to be on picture from bird or back wheel of the car. In manual mode such problems no. Under manual focusing possible record 5 frames fine 2048 for 28 with at endurance 1/125, but 5 frames 640 normal for 16 with under the same endurance. Through USB interface 8 Mb card to memories is read in computer for 20 30 s.
As a whole camera Sony DSC - S75 deserves the high estimation in its class. The good lens, intuitive comprehensible, idle time and in ditto time sufficient for any problems (from automatic recording, before completely manual) management. Pleasing hairs like blocking zoom-lens under locked lid with notification of this and possibility of the removal of the cartoon in format GIF do the process of the removal and publications of the work comfort and fascinating. Amongst function of the camera universal interface and possibility of the connection of the camera to computer through advanced USB, but picture spoils very simple instruction without explanation not only these function, but also more often used (for instance MPEG EX).
