The Sony CyberShot DSC-WX500 digital camera with 30x optical zoom features a 24-720mm Zeiss lens and is perfect for both close-ups and long-distance shots. Of course, all in between as well. Whether you use maximum zoom or take pictures in low light, the result will always be perfect.
Key Features:
The 18,2Mpx Exmor R CMOS sensor is characterised by high speed, sensitivity and dynamic range. The BIONZ X image processor reduces noise and diffractions. As a result, you get realistic images with true colours. Record videos in full HD resolution, even without using a tripod. Sony's advanced image analysis technology and five-axis image stabilisation counteract handshaking. Therefore, you will easily shoot sharp images while shooting moving objects or when shooting with only one hand.
The high-resolution LCD screen located on the back of the camera can be tilted up to 180 degrees. That is great for shooting, for example, selfies. Or you can comfortably observe the scene prior to shooting from a low position. You can also use the built-in Beauty effect to smooth down skin, modify the colour tone, reduce reflections, whiten teeth or widen someone's eyes. All that just with the camera - there is no need to use a computer.
The Sony CyberShot DSC-WX500 features built-in Near Field Communication (NFC) technology providing "One-touch connection" to compatible Android smartphones and tablets. Share your photos and movies instantly by sending them to your smartphone or tablet using WiFi connection. Download PlayMemories Mobile to your mobile device and control the camera remotely!
Do not worry about battery life when you are on the road. A fully charged battery lets you take approx. 400 stills or record 75 minutes of movie footage to make sure that you won't miss a good chance to shoot.
Sony Corporation is a Japanese company founded in 1946. Its headquarters is located in Tokyo. Its beginnings were humble. The first product sold under the Sony brand was a transistor radio. It was those radios that played a pivotal role in the company's expansion in the 1960s and the world quickly began to associate Sony products with a reliably stellar price-performance ratio.
In the 1970s, Sony was severely affected by the global economic crisis. Many analysts considered the company effectively defunct and could see no future for it. However, they underestimated the famous Japanese perseverance and courage. The crisis was not a disaster for Sony; on the contrary, it served as a launching pad to even greater heights. The company recovered and soon changed the media landscape with the development of the CD and later the DVD. In the early 1990s, Sony achieved another major success with the introduction of the PlayStation gaming console. It is the gaming consoles that best represent the intersection of the three key areas in which the company operates today – electronics, video games, and the entertainment industry.
