The large Xtra Fine LCD monitor can be angled 80° upward or 45° downward to maximize your shooting freedom. Thanks to this variable-angle capability, even high-position and low-position shots can be captured with ease.
The large, 3-inch/7.5-cm* Xtra Fine LCD monitor boasts a 16:9 widescreen display with LED backlighting and stunningly crisp 921,600-dot* resolution. Viewing and focusing ease are also enhanced by Sony TruBlack technology, which cuts reflection and glare with a special anti-reflective resin layer, as well as anti-reflective film. So you get vibrant colors and deeper, richer blacks, with high contrast that sharply reveals fine image details. In addition to auto and manual LCD monitor brightness adjustment, there's also a convenient Sunny Weather mode that significantly boosts screen brightness to assure easier viewing in bright light.

In Playback mode, you can scroll through previously recorded images/movies at high speed by rotating the control wheel, or advance one at a time by pressing the sides of the wheel. Movies and Sweep Panorama images can be played by pressing the center of the control wheel, and other types of images can be enlarged with the same action. In addition, a choice of index view and slideshow settings are also offered.
Stylishly designed to match the camera, the ultracompact detachable flash unit has a guide number of 7 (measured in meters at ISO100), and can cover up to a 16mm wide-angle field of view. It attaches easily and securely to the Smart Accessory Terminal with a thumbscrew, and offers a full range of flash modes just like a built-in unit. Power is supplied by the camera – just raise the head of the flash to switch it on, and lower the head to switch it off.
For high-capacity recording and fast, error-free data transfer, the camera is equipped with a slot that accepts Memory Stick Pro Duo and Memory Stick Pro-HG Duo media, as well as the latest generation of SD, SDHC, and SDXC memory cards.
To help protect the image sensor from dust contamination when changing lenses, a dedicated anti-dust system vibrates the optical low-pass filter in front of the image sensor each time power is switched off. It's a fast, convenient aid to help you keep the sensor clean and your photos blemish-free.
