Optical Zoom is a big deal for many photographers. It becomes even more important with point and shoot cameras as most only offer digital zoom or minimal optical zoom owing to the smaller form factor of the camera. Sony has been making strides with its cameras and today the company has launched its CyberShot WX300 point and shoot camera which also becomes the world’s smallest camera to feature 20x optical zoom. It costs Rs 19,900.
The camera sports an 18.2-megapixel Exmor R CMOS sensor, a Sony made G lens that allows wide-angle shots and an optical steady shot feature which allows the user to keep images shake free. Sony claims the optical stabilization is twice as effective as the previous model, the CyberShot HX20V. Sony even claims the autofocus to be 3.6 times faster when fully zoomed in.
An added benefit is built-in Wi-Fi capabilities that allow users to share images using the Play Memories app made by Sony, or view images wirelessly on a TV or backup photos on a PC. Sony claims it can deliver a battery life for up to 500 shots, and it can even shoot video in Full HD.
