guaranteeing pictures turn out perfectly every time. Intelligent scene recognition gets exposure just right, while the sensitivity range of up to 3200 ISO means you can capture frame-worthy shots even when lighting isn't to your advantage. Meanwhile, the DSC-W290's BIONZ processor and Clear RAW NR digital noise reduction feature prevent darkness from ruining your snaps. The optical stabiliser reduces blur, and the Zeiss lens, with a 28-140mm zoom (35mm equivalent), captures every last detail. Finally, the DSCW290 even has a number of video and HD slideshow modes for sharing photos on a bigger screen.
