Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 is a 8.0 megapixel digital bridge camera announced by Sony on August 15, 2003. Overview As successor of the DSC-F717, F828 was widely considered "revolutionary" at launch. Major changes / improvements over its predecessor, the 2002 F717 include: * "Carl Zeiss T*" lens with 7x (28-200mm) zoom range, wider compared to F717's 5x (38-190mm) * Mechanically-linked zoom ring * 8.0 megapixel, 2/3 inch, 4-color RGBE CCDs, highest pixel counts in any consumer camera sensors at launch. * Upgraded electronics for faster focus and post-processing. Continuous AF, and VGA-quality (640x480) filming were made possible. * Addition of a CompactFlash slot as an alternative to Sony's proprietary Memory Sticks. Although, a Memory Stick Pro is required for VGA-quality filming. * Shutter speed up to 1/3200s The F828, along with the "Cyber-shot F" series designation, was discontinued in 2005. Reception Despite having attractive on-paper specs, F828 did not fare as well as i ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

DSC-F717
The Sony Cybershot DSC-F717 is a bridge digital camera, introduced by Sony in September 2002. Overview F717 features the same 5.0 megapixel CCD sensor and 38–190 mm equiv. Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar lens as its predecessor, the 2001 DSC-F707. Major changes / improvements over the F707 include: * Analog focus ring can now double as a zoom ring * Addition of a "P" mode, ISO 800 option, and (with constraints) 1/2000 shutter speed * Better Noise Reduction Algorithm; NR automatically applies for slower than 1/30 shots * More natural color rendition (in particular, less "red overshoot") * Quick Review: The last photo can be reviewed by holding on the shutter button after the photo is taken. * USB 2.0 for faster file transfer to a PC or a printer * Supports Memory Stick Pro with capacity of 256MB and up (original Memory Stick has a maximum capacity of 128MB per side) F717 retained all distinctive features from F707, such as: *Swivel body design: the lens can be rotated from 36 de ...

CompactFlash
CompactFlash (CF) is a flash memory mass storage device used mainly in portable electronic devices. The format was specified and the devices were first manufactured by SanDisk in 1994. CompactFlash became one of the most successful of the early memory card formats, surpassing Miniature Card and SmartMedia. Subsequent formats, such as MMC/ SD, various Memory Stick formats, and xD-Picture Card offered stiff competition. Most of these cards are smaller than CompactFlash while offering comparable capacity and speed. Proprietary memory card formats for use in professional audio and video, such as P2 and SxS, are faster, but physically larger and more costly. CompactFlash's popularity is declining as CFexpress is taking over. As of 2022, both Canon and Nikon newest high end cameras, e.g. the Canon EOS R5, Canon EOS R3, and Nikon Z 9 use CFexpress cards for the higher performance required to record 8K video. Traditional CompactFlash cards use the Parallel ATA interface, but ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Purple Fringing
In photography (particularly digital photography), purple fringing (sometimes called PF) is the term for an unfocused purple or magenta "ghost" image on a photograph. This optical aberration is generally most visible as a coloring and lightening of dark edges adjacent to bright areas of broad-spectrum illumination, such as daylight or various types of gas-discharge lamps. Lenses in general exhibit axial chromatic aberration, in which different colors of light do not focus in the same plane. Normally, lens designs are optimized so that two or more (at least three for apochromatic lenses) wavelengths of light in the visible spectrum focus at the same plane. Wavelengths very different from those optimized in the design process may be severely out of focus while the reference colors are in focus; this axial chromatic aberration is usually severe at short wavelengths (violet). Lens performance may be poor for such wavelengths in other ways too, including an increase in flare due to ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cyber-shot Cameras
Cyber-shot is Sony's line of point-and-shoot digital cameras introduced in 1996. Cyber-shot model names use a DSC prefix, which is an initialism for "Digital Still Camera". Many Cyber-shot models feature Carl Zeiss trademarked lenses, while others use Sony, or Sony G lenses. All Cyber-shot cameras accept Sony's proprietary Memory Stick or Memory Stick PRO Duo flash memory. Select models have also supported CompactFlash. Current Cyber-shot cameras support Memory Stick PRO Duo, SD, SDHC, and SDXC. From 2006 to 2009, Sony Ericsson used the Cyber-shot brand in a line of mobile phones. Models The current lineup consists of: * R and RX series – state-of-the-art, large-sensor compact cameras ** DSC-RX100/DSC-RX100 II/III/IV/V/VI/VII – pocketable camera with the largest 1" sensor of all cameras of its size ** DSC-RX10/DSC-RX10 II — zoom lens 1" 24-200mm equivalent 35mm bridge camera with constant widest aperture F2.8 ** DSC-RX10 III/DSC-RX10 IV — zoom lens 1" 24-600mm eq ...
