Description — Sony DSC-W710
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W710 is a compact point-and-shoot camera centered on a 16MP, 1/2.3-inch sensor with a Sony proprietary CCD processor. Its 97 x 55 x 20mm plastic body tips the scales at just 114g, making it one of the more pocketable options for casual shooters. The 2.7-inch fixed LCD with 230,400 dots serves as both the framing and playback screen. Optical Image Stabilization (OIS) is built in to help keep handheld shots sharper.
The autofocus system uses contrast detection with a single center point, suited to straightforward, everyday shooting situations. The ISO sensitivity spans 100 to 3200, and four photo color profiles — Standard, Vivid, Sepia, and Black & White — let you dial in a look in-camera. Storage is flexible, accepting SD, SDHC, SDXC, Memory Stick, and Memory Stick PRO Duo cards.
Video records at 30fps in 8-bit depth. The NP-BN lithium-ion battery delivers approximately 220 shots per charge, and connectivity is provided via USB.
