From the top we have the ten times optical zoom, image stabilized DSC-H20 which has a ten megapixel CCD. Next we have two twelve megapixel W-series models, the four times zoom W230 and the five times zoom W290. Then come two new slim, twelve megapixel, touch-screen T-models, the T90 and T900, the latter of which demands an $80 premium for its 0.5" larger higher-resolution LCD. All of the models announced today, with one exception (the W230), shoot 720p HD video and have an "Intelligent Auto" mode."</em></p><p><img src="http://images.thoughtsmedia.com/resizer/thumbs/size/600/dht/auto/1236043894.usr18286.jpg" /></p><p>Sony has announced its new digital cameras for the 2009 PMA and there are definitely some cool new features. The two mainstream features are optical image stabilization and 720p high definition video. The more unusual new features include Smile Shutter, which captures an image the moment a smile is detected; Blink detection, where two pictures are taken and one where the eyes are least closed is saved; Intelligent scene recognition (iSCN) that detects the scene and adjusts the camera accordingly and Advanced iSCN that takes two consecutive pictures with different settings, allowing the user to choose the better photo.
