Sony DCR-SR220 Features |

|
High quality recording |
|
| Sony's newly designed CMOS image sensor with Exmor&trade technology delivers bright, vivid, and spectacularly detailed 2.3 megapixel (effective) video footage, as well as 4 megapixel still images, all with prolonged battery life. Exmor technology captures images with high resolution and high sensitivity. In addition, the advanced Sony Bionz&trade image processor improves camera response time and screens out noise so the signal from each pixel is as pure as possible. Made possible by the Boinz image processing engine, Face Detection technology recognizes up to 8 faces anywhere in the frame and automatically controls focus, exposure, and color to help capture smiling faces brightly and clearly. Face Detection also helps make skin tones look natural without affecting other colors in the image. |
|
Hybrid recording |
|
| Hybrid recording technology delivers a new level of flexibility for transferring your video footage and digital photos from the camcorder to compatible viewing devices. Record to the camcorder's 60GB internal hard disk drive, or choose instead to record to removable Memory Stick Duo media or Memory Stick PRO Duo media. You can even select from various dubbing functions to easily copy video or still images from the hard disk drive to Memory Stick media, without using a PC. Images recorded or transferred to Memory Stick can then be played directly on a PS3 or PC to share your memories with family and friends. You even have dual record mode that lets you capture still images directly to Memory Stick Duo media while recording video in high definition. |

Advanced optics |
|
| The Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® lens on the DCRSR220 was designed specifically for compact camcorders, and utilizes precision ground optics to maintain the sharpness and contrast found with larger lenses. A 15x optical zoom helps to bring the action up close from far away. In addition, the 180x digital zoom with interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than previous types of digital zoom. |
|
Keep an eye on things |
|
| The DCRSR220's 2.7" wide (16:9) LCD screen provides exceptional viewing clarity with improved resolution (211K pixels). The display rotates up to 270 degrees for multiple viewing angles, as well as providing sharp, detailed images for monitoring or playback. The widescreen format makes shooting in 16:9 mode and composing shots even easier. |
|
Great sound, too |
|
| Featuring Dolby® Digital 5.1 Creator, the built-in zoom microphone focuses audio recording on your subjects in sync with the camera's zoom lens, helping memories ring true with clear dialogue and crisp, discrete sounds. Recording in 5.1 channel surround sound allows you to experience your home movies with active sounds coming from all directions, so you can enjoy your personal home movies the way you experienced them while recording. The DCRSR220 also has Sony's proprietary hot shoe, making it easy to use intelligent accessories, such as external lights and microphones, by providing power and on/off capability directly from the camcorder. |
|
You've got the power |
|
| Unlike NiCad (Nickel Cadmium) batteries, Sony's rechargeable Lithium Ion batteries are not subject to a life shortening "memory effect", to you're free to charge the battery at any time. Additionally, Sony's exclusive AccuPower&trade meter displays the battery time remaining in minutes, in either the viewfinder or on the LCD screen. When using this battery, the Stamina® battery power management system helps the camcorder prolong battery life for extra long continuous recording times from a single charge. At the touch of a button, battery information is displayed on the LCD screen when charging and when the camcorder is turned off. When using the LCD screen or viewfinder, the display will show how much the battery is charged (in 10 percent increments), and the recordable time left. |
|
Find your footage |
|
| The DCRSR220 helps you find just what you're looking for when it's time to find some footage. Face Index makes it easier than ever to find and play back the right video scene. Using face detection technology, Face Index indexes your video footage according to the faces detected in each scene. When it's time to play back video, simply search for what you want by selecting from among the detected faces displayed in the index. Like chapters in a book, Film Roll Index helps you easily find desired scenes in video footage. When using this feature, the camcorder previews the beginning of scenes and can create scene indexes set at specified display intervals (3, 6, or 12 seconds and 1 or 5 minutes). |

Get creative |
|
| Scene selection modes on the DCRSR220 make recording easy even when filming in challenging situations. Choose from beach, candle, fireworks, landscape, portrait, sports lesson, spotlight, and sunrise & sunset. You can enhance your personal videos by adding professional-looking black and white fader effects. Get even more creative when recording or playing back your videos with Sony's picture effect modes. Effects available in camera and playback modes include monotone, pastel and sepia. For additional control of the camcorder, zoom and record buttons are featured on the frame of the LCD screen. This allows for more flexibility when holding the camcorder, especially in overhead or low angle shots. |
|
Even more great features |
|
| Missing an important scene can be frustrating, especially if the reason is because your camcorder is turned off. With the quick on feature, the touch of a single button places the camcorder in sleep mode. Another push instantly wakes the camcorder, so you'll always be ready to capture special moments. A manual focus option allows you to control the focus in difficult situations where either the environment or the subject does not allow the camcorder's auto focus to perform optimally, such as when shooting through a window or in a crowded environment. You can easily burn a DVD copy of your footage using the supplied software. Simply connect the camcorder to your PC via a USB cable and press the one touch disc burn button. |
