Sony describes this cameras as “Slim Meets High-Speed”. DSC-TX1 And DSC-WX1 , which owing to their “Exmor R” back illuminated CMOS sensor technology, provide twice the sensitivity of cameras with traditional image sensors. This provides drastically improved low-light performance and results in cleaner images with less noise. These both cameras include Sweep Panorama and 10 frames per second burst shooting features, in smaller, more compact bodies that match nearly any unique style.

Capturing wide landscapes is as easy as “press and sweep.” Sweep Panorama mode lets you reach beyond the traditional wide-angle lens and capture breathtaking shots. Using the high-speed “Exmor R” CMOS sensor, the cameras shoot continuously while you sweep across the scene. Using the BIONZ Imaging Processor, they automatically stitch the pictures together to create one stunning panoramic photo.

WX1 cameras incorporate the hand-held twilight and anti-motion blur multi-shot modes introduced in Sony’s Cyber-shot DSC-HX1. Using “Exmor R” CMOS sensor’s high speed, these modes capture six separate images in less than a second and utilize Sony’s BIONZ™ processor to combine the shots into a single image of extraordinary detail.

With a Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® lens, the TX1 camera lets you focus as little as 0.4 (1.01 cm)from your subject for extraordinary close-up shots. The 4x telescopic zoom is perfect for capturing far-away subjects, and Sony’s Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilization helps overcome camera shake.

In its slim profile of just 16.5mm, the 10.2 mega-pixel TX1 offers streamlined, distinguished curves for a sophisticated look appealing to the fashion-oriented who are also looking for great performance. TX1 features a new operation on the touch panel that lets you scroll through images with an effortless “flick” of your finger and directly access menus on the 3.0 (7.6 cm) Clear Photo LCD Plus™ display.

The WX1 camera features a Sony G lens with an extraordinary wide angle 24-120mm 5x optical zoom. This lens’ f/2.4 maximum aperture offers nearly twice the light gathering capability of conventional lenses, and works together with the “Exmor R” imager and low-light shooting modes to provide low-light photography beyond the abilities of other compact cameras.
