Sony Cyber-shot N1 Digital Camera User Manual


 
which means you can view them whenever you want. The internal Pocket Album
is a great way to share memories and tell a story with friends. In addition to
sharing on the large LCD screen, images can be viewed on a connected TV
screen. When the maximum capacity is reached, the oldest images are
automatically deleted to make space for new ones (individual images can be
protected from deletion). Of course, images are also stored in full high resolution
on optional Memory Stick Duo
or Memory Stick PRO Duo for you to save on a
PC or print out.
Truly dynamic slide shows
In addition, the Cyber-shot N1 features a Slideshow with Music function for a
truly rich slide show experience. It brings your pictures to life by playing them
back in a variety of slide show styles: select from 'Active', 'Simple', 'Stylish' and
'Nostalgic' modes and your pictures will be shown at random accompanied by a
choice of four pre-set background music melodies to complement the mood. You
can even add background music of you own choice using the supplied Picture
Package software. You can select the Music Transfer function to add your own
music (MP3 or CD music) to the camera’s internal memory to further personalise
your slide shows. To make the very best of your memories, the camera goes one
step further, blending and zooming in and out on images for a truly dynamic,
movie-like slide show. You don't even have to wait to get home to enjoy this
great feature-just switch to Slideshow with Music mode and the camera does the
rest! There is also a 'Normal' function for playback without mood music.
Sony and Carl ZEISS in partnership
The brushed aluminium metal body of the Cyber-shot N1 boasts smooth lines
and modern styling and houses a Sony developed 8.1 effective Megapixel Super
HAD CCD, combined with a Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 3x Optical Zoom lens, to
ensure crystal clear shots every time. If you need to zoom even more, no
problem: the camera features a 6x Precision Digital Zoom, and a 15x VGA Smart
Zoom to help you view subjects near and far. With the 16:9 shooting mode you
can even shoot wide-screen images for playback on your wide-screen TV.
High sensitivity for reduced blur
Picture blur is significantly reduced because of the high sensitivity capability of
the Cyber-shot N1. Traditionally this would lead to an increase in noise, however
utilising the newly developed Clear RAW NR feature, the signal to noise ratio is
greatly improved. The Clear RAW NR original algorithm system reduces colour
and luminance noise, enabling shooting with significantly higher sensitivity (up to
ISO 800). This ensures images with less noise and finer detail. This is especially
beneficial when shooting in low-light conditions, or when shooting moving
objects.
Stylish shooting on the go
A fun photographic experience comes as standard with the Cyber-shot N1.
Despite its huge LCD screen, its light and compact body weighs in at only 151g*.
It’s a perfect size to drop into a bag so you never miss a single photo opportunity
with friends and family, or a fabulous view or memories from your latest holiday.
Whatever the occasion, there is bound to be a suitable setting to capture it
amongst the eight pre-set Scene Selection modes, including Twilight, Snow and
Beach functions. Just choose your preferred mode: the shutter speed and
exposure has all been pre-set for worry-free and convenient shooting. The
