10x Optical/120x Digital Zoom
The optical zoom helps to bring the action close up from far away. Digital Zoom Interpolation means that extreme digital zooming is clearer, with less distortion than with previous types of digital zooms. |
Super SteadyShot Picture-Stabilization System
Picture-stabilization system that uses motion sensors to detect and compensate for camera shake without compromising picture quality, as some other digital stabilization systems do. |
Professional-Quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens
Carl Zeiss lenses have an advanced optical multilayer coating that offers less glare and flare, with increased contrast. This results in vivid image brilliance, true-to-life color saturation, and perfect renditions of subtle tones. |
USB 2.0 Interface
USB 2.0 interface provides an easy way to connect your DVD Handycam camcorder to the computer for fast transfer of video and still images. The camcorder can also be used as an external DVD burner, convenient for making copies of your DVDs or for burning edited movies. |
DVD-R- and DVD-RW-Compatible
The DCR-DVD7 is compatible with a variety of DVD formats, allowing the ease of use and simplicity found in DVD media. With DVD RW media, there is no need to finalize the disc (minimum recording required). Simply remove the disc and insert the media into a compatible DVD player. |
InfoLithium Battery with AccuPower Meter System
Charge the battery at anytime--unlike NiCad (Nickel Cadmium) batteries, Sony's rechargeable lithium-ion batteries are not subjected to a life-shortening "memory effect." Sony's exclusive AccuPower meter displays the battery time remaining in minutes, either in the viewfinder or on the LCD screen. |
Picture Effects
Get creative when recording or playing back your videos with Sony's Picture Effect Modes. Effects available in Camera mode: Negative Art, Sepia, Monotone, Solarize, Slim, Stretch, Pastel and Mosaic. Effects available in Playback mode: Negative Art, Sepia, Black and White, and Solarize. |
The 2.5-inch LCD of the Sony DCR-DVD7 Handycam |
2.5-Inch Touch Panel LCD Display (123K Pixels)
Provides excellent viewing clarity with improved resolution. The hybrid reflective-transmissive LCD screen provides accurate viewing in sunlight or bright light, virtually eliminating the "wash-out" common with traditional LCD Screens. |
Program AE (Auto Exposure) Modes
Program AE modes make recording easy even when filming in challenging situations. Choose from Portrait, Beach and Ski, Sports Lesson, Landscape, Spotlight, and Sunset and Moon modes. |
Battery Information
At the touch of a button, battery information is displayed on the LCD screen when charging or when the camcorder is turned off. The display will show how much the battery is charged in 10% increments and the recordable time left on the LCD screen or in the viewfinder. |
Easy Handycam Button
Using a camcorder can be intimidating for some, so with a press of the Easy Handycam button, most of the advanced features of the camcorder are "locked out," leaving only the buttons essential for recording operational. |
Manual Focus
Allows the user to manually adjust the focus of the camcorder using the touch panel. Manual focusing also allows the user to control the focus in difficult situations in which either the environment or the subject does not allow the camcorder's autofocus to perform optimally, such as when shooting through a window or in a crowded environment. |
Picture Package Software
Easily organize still images and video and turn them into stunning music videos. |
Fader Effects
Enhance your personal videos by adding professional-looking fader effects. Choose from Black, Mosaic, White, Monotone, and Stripe. |
