Step

up

10.2 MP CCD

Superb image quality gives you great

DSLR shots right from the start, with a

large APS-size CCD imager developed

by Sony to expand dynamic range,

minimize noise more effectively and

provide greater detail for making big

prints or cropping in tight on your

subject.

Expanded ISO Sensitivity

Broad sensitivity range from ISO 100 to

ISO 3200 enables the α

(

alpha) DSLR-

A200 to capture beautiful color images

even in very dim light -- with High ISO

Noise Reduction technology that

reduces picture noise artifacts at high

-

sensitivity ISO 1600 and ISO 3200

settings by eliminating noise from RAW

data after analog-to-digital

conversion.

SteadyShot INSIDE™

in

-camera Image

Stabilization

A high-

performance sensor detects

vibrations and the image stabilization

system automatically compensates.

Because image stabilization is built into

the

α

(

alpha) DSLR-A200, every lens

benefits

-- and with an advantage of

from 2.5 to 3.5 stops, you can shoot

effectively at higher shutter speeds even

in very low light with minimum blur

from shaky hands or fast-moving

subjects.

BIONZ

™ Image Processor

The

“brain” of the Sony® α

; (

alpha)

DSLR-A200 is the advanced Sony

BIONZ™ Image Processor, using

hardware-based Large Scale Integrated

(LSI) circuitry to enhance images with

rich tonal reproduction, improved white

balance and exposure control, and

expanded D-Range Optimizer

capabilities. With 2-

channel data

transfer from CCD to processor, your

camera can also respond faster.

Dynamic Range Optimizer

To improve results with backlit subjects

and recover details hidden in shadows

or lost in glare, the Sony® α

; (

alpha)

DSLR-A200 provides Dynamic Range

Optimizer at two levels: Normal DRO, to

improve detail using standard gamma

curves for fast shot

-to-

shot response

time, or Advanced DRO, to adjust

dynamic range area-by-

area for the

greatest precision.

Anti

-

Dust Technology

Changing lenses in a DSLR can allow

dust to enter the camera

-- so to keep

the CCD imager cleaner for better

pictures, the Sony

® α

;(

alpha) DSLR-

A200 utilizes both static-

free anti

-

dust

coating on the CCD filter and anti-

dust

vibration that automatically shakes the

CCD to dislodge dust each time the

camera is shut off.

Auto Pop-Up Flash

In Auto or some scene selection modes,

the camera flash automatically pops

up and fires when needed to help you

shoot more effectively. Flash is

cancelled in Landscape, Sport or Sunset

modes and in “Flash Off” position on

the Exposure Mode dial.

Eye-

Start Autofocus System

It begins precision autofocus

adjustments the moment you raise the

camera to your eye -- so unlike some

DSLR cameras that don’

t start focusing

until the shutter button is half

-

pressed,

the Sony® α

; (

alpha) DSLR-

A200 never

slows down your ability to catch fast

action.

9

-

Point Center Cross AF Sensor

A fast focus motor and improved focus

control help bring images into sharp

definition more quickly, with predictive

focus control that automatically

calculates the position of a fast-moving

subject.

Flexible, Accurate Exposure Control

A 40-segment honeycomb sensing

system provides multi-

pattern

measuring for superior exposure control

accuracy

-- and you can also select

center

-weighted or spot metering

modes. You’ll also have 6 preset White

Balance control settings and RGB

Histogram display to check color

balance.

Scene Selection Modes

Along with auto exposure, the Sony® α;

(

alpha) DSLR-A200 gives you scene

selection modes to optimize camera

performance for Portrait, Landscape,

Macro, Sports, Sunset and Night

Portrait/Night View situations.

Creative Style Settings

To express your creativity and personal

taste, you can adjust contrast,

saturation and sharpness settings for

any of 8 finishing styles -- including

Standard, Vivid, Portrait, Landscape,

Night View, Sunset, B & W and Adobe

RGB modes.

Clear Photo™

LCD Screen

A large built-

reflective

setup menus even in bright sunlight and

improves image quality when you

check your shots.
