Optical Zoom helps you bring distant subjects closer or pull back for wide shots. Up to 3.2 Smart Zoom (at VGA size): Smart Zoom intelligently uses the full CCD to let you zoom into the portion of interest by cropping the image size—thus avoiding the image degradation of Digital Zooms. 3 Area Multi-Point Auto Focus: Evaluating 3 separate focus areas of the frame, Multi-Point AF can intelligently focus on the subject and avoid undesired focus on the background. AF (Auto Focus) Illuminator: Briefly illuminating the subject in low or no-light conditions, AF Illuminator helps establish a positive focus lock. Multi-Pattern Measuring: Independently light-metering 49 points of the frame, Multi- Pattern Measuring establishes the optimum exposure, even in scenes where pronounced highlight and shadow areas exist in various portions of the frame. Auto Daylight Synchro Fill-Flash: If the Multi-Pattern Measuring system determines the subject is backlit or in shadow, fill flash automatically engages to provide optimum exposure. Memory Stick® Media: Digital. Powerful. Transportable.™ Memory Stick media is compact, portable and rugged — connecting a variety of hardware and software applications. Scene Selection Mode: With 5 Scene Modes, camera parameters can be matched to the shooting conditions. Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Landscape, Snow and Beach presets make it easy to optimize difficult shooting environments. Slow Shutter Noise Reduction: During long Twilight mode exposures, Slow Shutter NR captures the scene, and then the CCD noise pattern, with a dark frame exposure. By subtracting the two, even long exposures can be clear. 14-Bit DXP A/D Conversion: Sony's 14-bit Digital Extended Processor captures the range between highlight and shadow with up to 16,384 values, for extended dynamic contrast and detail. 1.5" LCD Monitor: Monitors the scene for accurate framing. 123K pixel and anti-glare coating help provide excellent viewing and image playback clarity, even outdoors. True Zoom Optical Viewfinder: Provides accurate framing at eye level, great for added stability and following fast moving subjects. Pre-Flash Metering: With a momentary pre-flash, the camera illuminates the subject and sets exposure through the lens for accurate flash metering. Adjustable flash level and redeye reduction ensure great flash shots. QXGA (2048 x 1536) Image Size: With its high resolution CCD, the DSC-P32 records in 4 different image sizes, with selectable Fine or Standard JPEG compression. Multi-Burst Mode: Captures 16 320x240 frames, as part of a single 1280x960 image which plays back sequentially in the camera. Selectable 1/7.5, 1/15, 1/30 second frame intervals provide convenient motion analysis. MPEG Movie VX Mode: Captures VGA (640 x 480) high frame rate (16 frames per second) audio/video clips with length limited only by the capacity of the media. Video Mail mode captures smaller file sizes suitable for email. Clip Motion Mode: Capture up to 10 images and convert them to an animated GIF with 2 fps playback. By varying the interval between shots you can create animations not possible with other motion capture modes. Playback Zoom, Trim and Resize: During playback, magnify any portion of the image up to 5X and trim to the area of your interest. Then, save the new image as a new file in any of the image sizes available from the menu.
