Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 – 8.0MP Vintage Swivel-Lens Bridge Digicam (Carl Zeiss T* Optics)

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 is an iconic flagship bridge camera from the golden era of digital photography. Featuring Sony’s famous swivel-body construction, NightShot infrared capability, a manual mechanical zoom ring, and a fast Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* lens, it remains one of the most distinctive and capable 2000s bridge digicams.

• 8.0 Megapixel 2/3" RGBE CCD Sensor: Advanced 4-color Super HAD CCD sensor delivering rich color reproduction, crisp detail, and a signature vintage aesthetic.

• Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 7x Optical Zoom Lens (28–200mm f/2.0–f/2.8 equiv.): Ultra-bright, high-end optical glass with a mechanical zoom ring that produces sharp imagery with soft, natural background blur.

• Unique Swivel Body Ergonomics: The lens barrel rotates independently from the main camera grip, allowing for effortless high-angle overhead shots and low-angle perspective photography.

• Infrared NightShot & NightFraming: Built-in infrared emitter system for true zero-light IR photography and precision laser focus assist in low-light environments.

• EVF & Rear LCD Display: Features both an electronic eye-level viewfinder and a clear rear LCD display for flexible framing.
