We're
redefining digital clarity with a 2.14-million-pixel CCD. |

The
high resolution lens, high-speed, high-precision auto focus and
advanced program auto exposure of the PDR-M5 ensure that images
are received in pristine condition before being recorded in UXGA
format (1600x1200 pixels). Recording is then done via a 1/2-inch
2.14 million-pixel charge coupled device (CCD). The result is a
high level of expression and color reproduction with a sharpness
and clarity comparable to that attained by conventional 35mm photography.
SVGA format (800 x 600 pixels) is also available in order to allow
the easy download of images for computers of use on the internet.
Compression
settings to suit your needs.
Whether
you choose to use UXGA or SVGA, the shoot can be further improved
by choosing one of three compression settings. Normal for standard
shooting requirements, Fine, in cases where the emphasis lies
in image quality and Basic, for when quantity of shooting is more
important.
