Sony DSC-HX1 Can Take Panoramic Shots

In photography, a fisheye lens is a wide-angle lens that takes in an extremely wide, in the market tagged around $1K, but the Sony DSC-HX1 packed with bunch of features, one of the cool thing from this prosumer, it can take panoramic shots up to up to 224° horizontal or 154° vertical. Aside from the ability to take pictures of really long lines of people, the DSC-HX1 can also capture 1080p HD video clips at 30 fps.

The DSC-HX1 also has a couple of tricks up its non-existent sleeve to help photographers who have to deal with low-lighting conditions and moving objects. The DSC-HX1: made for stalkers. Anyway. In low-lighting conditions, the camera will take an additional shot after the intended shot is taken, giving the photographer the option to choose which of the two to keep. The DSC-HX1 also has a special mode made specifically for shooting moving objects. When set to that mode the camera will take not one but six shots all within a fraction of a second. Then via some Exmor-BIONZ magic those six images are superimposed to create a sharper image.
The DSC-HX1 will be in stores come April and will sell for about $500 USD. Sony says that they’ll be taking pre-orders this March, so if you’re interested, keep an eye on the DSC-HX1’s product page. [ Source : technabob ]
