Thursday, 08/07/08 - Sony today introduces two new Cyber-shot® digital cameras, the Cyber-shot® DSC-T700 and DSC-T77. The 10-megapixel T77 camera is Sony’s thinnest model at less than 5/8 of an inch with a 3-inch, 16 x 9 touch panel LCD screen. It features updated intelligent scene recognition technology, Smile Shutter™ and face detection technologies with child and adult priority, as well as high sensitivity shooting (up to ISO 3200), eleven scene modes, and in-camera image management.
The T700 model earns extra points as a "photo album in your pocket."
