Sony unveiled a dozen or so new products for their “Summer Gears 2009”; among them is the 10.1MP Cybershot H20 with a whole pack of protective cases for sports and marine activities.

A successor to the H10, the Sony Cyber-shot H20 is powered by a Carl Zeiss lens with Vario-Tessar and an optical zoom of up to 10x.

The camera can take full HD (1080p) of still image and 720p HD movies. It has a facial recognition function and an Optical SteadyShot feature (much like an image stabilizer). The screen display is a 3″ hybrid LCD monitor and supports ISO3200.

What I’m actually more interested was the various protective casing for the new Cybershot series. Since this is sort of a summer release, Sony included a whole line of underwater camera packs shown below.

The Marine Pack (left picture) I think can go down to a depth of 40 meters while the cheapest pack is the one in the middle which is only Php3,499.

How much price?

DK · 17 years ago

I think a very high pixel camera wont be necessary if you’re a normal camera user…. but H20 is a good camera for me, magkanu po kaya price nun?

korek ka jan whackerZ! hahaha

anyways, pixel count does not mean good image quality. a 12.1 megapixel phone camera with bad lens and and small sensor is nothing compared to any cheap 6 megapixel point-and-shoot camera. di ka naman siguro nagpapaprint ng poster size everyday.
