Product Description

A classic design meets modern technology in the Cyber-shot DSCW5 digital camera. The DSCW5 combines a traditional rangefinder camera layout with high-end features such as a huge 2.5" LCD screen, 5.1 Megapixel image capture, and high speed performance thanks to the Real Imaging Processor chip.

The DSCW5's Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens provides crisp, clear visuals and a 3X optical zoom without compromising the camera's amazingly compact design. Image quality is further enhanced with such features as area multi-point auto focus, auto focus illuminator and multi-pattern measuring.

The DSCW5 includes 32 MB of built-in flash memory, so you'll have room for additional photographs if you are ever without Memory Stick media. With a classic build, easy control, and numerous advanced features, the Cyber-shot DSCW5 has something for everyone.
