Product Description:
DSLR Quality Images - Expert photography is easy
Be pleasantly surprised by the stylish and ultra-compact NEX-C3 that delivers imagery that belies expectations of a camera its size. Be impressed by ultra-sharp DSLR quality images with its Exmor™ APS HD CMOS sensor and BIONZ™ processor. This large sensor used also in Sony α system DSLR cameras enables truly amazing image quality with less noise in all shooting conditions, including low light.
Picture Effect - Images to your liking
Photography is more exciting on your NEX-C3 with Picture Effect. You can choose from a virtually unlimited range of artistic expression with advanced effects like Toy Camera, High Monochrome and Partial Color - a unique effect that lets you capture one particular color in an otherwise black-and-white image.
With Picture Effect, there's no need to manipulate your photos with image-editing software — you can create works of photographic art simply by releasing the shutter — and have the camera save them in JPEG format for you automatically.
Photo Creativity Interface - Image settings with ease
Even if you've never used an interchangeable-lens camera before, the NEX-C3's all-new "Photo Creativity" user interface allows you to express your creativity at a touch with instant access to menus for adjustments. Alter colour, brightness on images, or add a Soft Skin Effect or Background Defocus. It's so easy to operate - just use the on-screen tips, and preview how the applied effects will look on images using the LCD monitor, even when multiple effects are applied simultaneously.
HD Video Recording - On-the-go movie brilliance
Prolong every precious moment for repeat enjoyment on the NEX-C3. Apply Background Defocus with the camera’s large Exmor™ APS HD CMOS sensor, while a dedicated ‘movie’ button enables one-touch recording. Also use Picture Effect for Partial Colour and High Contrast Monochrome effects to make unique movies.
3D Sweep Panorama - Extra-wide scenic views to enjoy
Be in awe of the beauty of scenery and landscapes on the NEX-C3. Sweep across the scene you want to capture for a panoramic 3D image to be created, with left and right views combined. Then play it back on a compatible 3D television to see the panoramic image just as you remember it live.
3” Tilt-able LCD - Hard to reach places more accessible
Photos in awkward spaces can now be captured with ease using the tilt-able LCD screen. Want to capture a low shot from the ground or a high shot above you? Whatever the angle, the NEX-C3’s variable angle screen helps you get those shots and more, while always keeping your images sharp.
