Pixel power.
With an 18.2-megapixel Exmor R CMOS sensor, capture high-resolution
images that take full advantage of the camera's high quality Carl Zeiss

without losing detail. Advanced processing technology reduces noise and
graininess for incredibly crisp, clear images—even in challenging
low-light conditions.

Capture ultra fine details—like the surface of an ice crystal or
intricate texture of a flower petal—using Magnifying Glass Plus mode.
Every subtle nuance is translated with depth and accuracy for
intriguing, macro-like photographs. Soft LED lighting reduces unwanted
shadows and helps bring the photo to life.

video with reduced distortion looks great when played back on your HDTV.
