Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V prices and specs
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V was produced on Feb 28, 2012 and is sold in USA for $399.98
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V is a compact camera. Its main advantage is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The camera is equipped with different automatic modes but you won't make photographs of the same high quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V can make photos at 18 megapixels max resolution. But if you want to get better picture quality the more important specification is a sensor size. This camera has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V will shoot photos with a lower quality than cameras with bigger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V has portable size. And if you want to make photos of the professional quality check Sony Alpha 7 II.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/1600 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but still you will manage to produce photos of moving subjects. The camera shoots great videos in Full HD resolution.
The lens is built into the Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V and the camera owner won't be able to switch it. The lens provides amazing 20x optical zoom.
The camera even has built-in GPS that will allow the photographer to record the exact co-ordinates at which the photos were taken. The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX20V battery life will be enough to take approximately 320 photos.
