Description:

Simple, slim, and stylish, the Sony DSC-U40 Cyber-shot U is the perfect digital camera for capturing the moment no matter where you are. It features a compact design that makes it perfect for a night on the town or a stroll in the park, and even comes in multiple colors so you can match your mood. Despite its good looks, it packs all the features you expect from a Sony, including a large 2.0 Megapixel Super HAD CCD, 1.0" hybrid LCD monitor, and a super-fast 1 second start-up time. Capture life in a blink of the eye with the DSC-U40.

  • Super HAD (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCDs provide excellent image quality by allowing more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise
  • Fast Start-Up (0.9 sec.) with Convenient Sliding Lens Cover lets you capture your precious memories at the speed of life, rather than miss "The" shot, waiting for your camera to start up.
  • With a momentary pre-flash, the camera illuminates the subject and sets exposure through the lens for accurate flash metering. Adjustable flash level and red-eye reduction insure great flash shots.
  • Memory Stick Duo and Memory Stick PRO Duo Media Compatibility: Digital, Powerful, Transportable. At 1/3 the size of standard Memory Stick Media, Memory Stick Duo and Memory Stick PRO Duo Media offer the same benefits and capabilities
  • The Red-Eye Reduction system uses a series of pre-flashes that causes the subject's pupils to contract, reducing the possibility of reflection from the back of the eye that causes the red-eye problem.
  • With 5 Scene Modes (Soft Snap, Illumination Snap, Twilight, Active Outdoor and Vivid Nature), the camera parameters are changed to match the shooting conditions.
  • Auto Bright Monitoring: To help framing in low or no-light situations, the CCD gain is briefly increased to provide an extra bright display on the LCD viewfinder just before exposure.
  • Select 1632 x 1224 (UXGA) picture resolution great for photo quality 5" x 7" prints, or 640 x 480 (VGA) picture resolution for on-screen viewing and email applications.
