Sony Digital Camera Cyber shot N1 User Manual

Berlin, 3rd October 2005  
SONY ANNOUNCES HIGH QUALITY DIGITAL STILL  
CAMERA BRIMMING WITH NEW INNOVATIVE FEATURES  
8.1 effective Megapixels, Super large 3.0 inch touch-screen LCD  
and ZEISS 3x Optical Zoom  
The Sony Cyber-shot N1 offers the perfect combination  
of smooth design, fun shooting and sharing experiences,  
with superb image quality. The camera features an 8.1  
effective Megapixel Super HAD CCD, the highest ever  
resolution for a super compact Cyber-shot. The massive  
3.0 inch Clear Photo LCD Plus screen also features a  
handy touch-screen operation, again two more firsts for  
a Sony Cyber-shot. The Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 3x  
Optical Zoom lens produces sparkling, sharp images - and it’s all packaged in a  
compact aluminium body that’s only 22.7mm slim. Great new viewing  
technologies, Pocket Album and Slideshow with Music features, ensure the most  
enjoyable and varied shooting and sharing experience ever from Sony.  
The big screen you can touch  
The large hybrid 3.0 inch touch-sensitive LCD on the Cyber-shot N1 makes this  
stylish digital camera even easier to use, allowing you to operate various  
functions when shooting and playing back by simply touching the LCD screen.  
For example with the Free Spot AF function, you can focus on an object directly  
by just touching it on the LCD screen. Likewise, functions like menu, playback,  
forward and reverse can be controlled by just touching or tracing a finger across  
the LCD screen. The paint and stamp function is great for families:using the  
supplied stylus, artistic and decorative final touches can be added to photos.  
The brand new Clear Photo LCD Plus technology greatly improves the resolution  
and brightness of the 3.0 inch LCD screen. The improved 65% NTSC colour ratio  
leads to clearer and more vivid picture quality. The LCD incorporates a smooth  
anti-reflection layer, for a better image quality than conventional textured layers.  
It also suppresses reflections more effectively to increase the display contrast,  
especially outside in bright sunlight. Perfect for sharing photographs with friends  
and family.  
View and share pictures, wherever, whenever  
Imagine how heavy a photo album carrying 500 of your favourite photos might  
be! The new Pocket Album feature from Sony allows you to carry and view up to  
500 of your favourite still photos on the camera's large LCD screen. A separate,  
internal memory is dedicated to holding your pictures in VGA size thumbnails,

Cyber-shot N1 also features a manual exposure if you feel like being a little more  
creative.  
Always ready  
Battery performance is not a problem for the Cyber-shot N1 - with its improved  
Sony STAMINA technology, you can take up to 300** shots on a single charge of  
the supplied Lithium battery. To keep up with the shooting ability the camera  
offers, its Real Imaging Processor provides a very quick camera response time. If  
you do run out of power, just charge it up again with the supplied battery  
charger.  
Greater Appeal  
The Cyber-shot N-series also features PictBridge, the standard for printing  
directly to compatible PictBridge photo printers, such as the Sony DPP-FP50. The  
optional Cyber-shot Station makes charging and connecting to a PC, printer or  
TV even simpler. A greater range of optional accessories are available for the  
Cyber-shot N1, including a leather case, and a new Marine housing for  
underwater shooting down to 40m, complete with basic control functionality (as  
a substitute for the standard touch-screen operation).  
Your language  
Sony has increased the choice of local menu languages to a staggering 15 on the  
Cyber-shot N1, another great solution to ensure easier operation.  
Menu  
languages now include: English, French, German, Italian, Spanish, Portuguese,  
Dutch, Russian, Swedish, Norwegian, Danish, Finnish, Polish, Hungarian, and  
Czech.  
The Cyber-shot N1 finished in silver aluminium will be available throughout  
Europe from late November 2005.

NOTES FOR EDITORS  
Please find below further details about products and services highlighted in the Press Release:  
Design  
The rounded-off squared body design was inspired by the simple functionality of the Touch-screen.  
The entire back of the Cyber-shot N1 is finished in a glossy black, with key controls lit in blue for  
ease of use. The front is dressed in an elegantly machined aluminium fascia surrounding the two-  
tone lens barrel. The sharp contrast of Silver and Black gives the Cyber-shot N1 a unique cool yet  
solid style.  
Real Imaging Processor benefits  
The Real Imaging Processor was designed by Sony to provide a faster start-up time, enhanced  
colour reproduction and an improved signal to noise ratio, resulting in greatly improved picture  
quality and camera operation. Burst mode shooting is possible thanks to the Real Imaging  
Processor as well as a beneficial effect on the battery performance of the Cyber-shot N1. It also  
makes high-resolution video possible, recording footage in MPEG Movie VX Fine (640 x 480, 30  
frames per second) format – the recording time is only limited by the capacity of your optional  
Memory Stick PRO Duo™ media.  
Flexibility  
The camera has several advanced Auto Focus (AF) options including Multi-Point (5 points), Centre  
Weighted, Spot and Free Spot (using touch-panel), as well as options for Saturation, Contrast and  
Sharpness. Further flexibility is included with a variety of Light Metering, Flash, White Balance and  
Burst Modes. The live Histogram feature shows the luminance distribution of the image as a graph  
in the LCD, a great tool to judge the correct exposure.  
Memory  
Worry-free shooting is a reality with the Cyber-shot N1’s 26MB internal memory. Now not only can  
you shoot and store pictures on an optional Sony Memory Stick Duo™ or Memory Stick PRO Duo™,  
but with the internal memory you can be safe in the knowledge you will never miss a great photo  
opportunity again. An extra separate internal memory is allocated to the Pocket Album feature.  
Connectivity  
Options for connectivity include Hi-Speed USB 2.0 and an enhanced version of the PictBridge  
interface provides a way for the Cyber-shot N1 to connect directly to a compatible printer without  
the need for a PC. A/V connectivity allows connections to a TV for playback and sharing of images,  
MPEG Movie VX Fine movies, the Pocket Album feature and the Slideshow with Music feature. The  
optional Cyber-shot Station makes charging and connecting to a PC, printer or TV even simpler.  
Accessories  
Sony also includes a variety of accessories with the Cyber-shot N1. These include a rechargeable  
Lithium Battery, Battery Charger, Wrist Strap, a CD containing software (including Picture Package  
with Music Transfer) and USB driver, as well as an AV and USB multi-use terminal cable.
