After reading the previous two introductions on this site, the "debut article" and the "unboxing photos," you should have a general understanding of this new SONY camera, the DSC-G1. The editor will briefly explain again the key specifications and features of this digital camera. It is a 6MP, 1/2.5-inch CCD model, paired with a Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 3x optical zoom lens (38-114mm in 35mm equivalent focal length), with an aperture range of F3.5-4.3. The closest focusing distance is generally 50cm, while the macro mode can focus as close as 1cm. It is equipped with Sony's exclusive Super SteadyShot, ISO 1000 high sensitivity anti-shake, and optical image stabilization functions. In terms of video recording, it can reach up to 640*480 resolution at 30fps. Such camera specifications are not particularly outstanding in today's highly competitive DC market.
