Description

This incredibly easy-to-use camera slips right in your pocket, ready to capture a memory at a moment's notice. Get close to faraway subjects with 5x optical zoom, then snap gorgeous 20.1 MP photos or record beautifully detailed HD video. Your pictures will come out crisp and clear thanks to the professional-grade Sony lens with Optical SteadyShot image stabilization. For even more fun, enhance your stills and video with built-in creative effects like toy camera and pop color. Or try beauty effects to adjust skin tones, remove blemishes and even whiten teeth-it's perfect for portraits.

Don't let a not-so-steady hand prevent you from capturing the moment. Optical SteadyShot image stabilization with intelligent active mode compensates for camera shake by countering camera movements in both horizontal and vertical directions. Get sharp, blur-free footage and photos in otherwise unsteady situations, like shooting video while walking or zoomed in.
