1/1.8" 4.0 MegaPixel Effective Super

HAD™ CCD, 4.1 MP Gross 

Super HAD (Hole
Accumulation Diode) CCDs
provide excellent image 

quality by allowing more light to pass to
each pixel, increasing sensitivity and
reducing noise.

Ultra Compact Design

Slim and sleek, the DSC-P9 is small
enough to fit most any pocket or purse.
Even so, its optimized proportions and
well placed controls make it easy to use.

3X Optical/2X Digital/6X Total Zoom 

3X Optical zoom helps you
frame your shots for better
digital pictures. And Sony’s

Precision Digital zoom provides an 
additional 2X magnification without the
jagged edges of other designs, 
resulting in smoother images.

3 Area Multi-Point Auto Focus

By evaluating 3 separate
focus areas of the frame,
Sony’s Multi-point AF system

can intelligently focus on the subject 
and avoid focusing on the background.

AF (Auto Focus) Illuminator

Briefly illuminating the 
subject in low- or no-light
conditions, AF Illuminator

helps establish a positive focus lock.

Multi-Pattern Measuring 

Independently light-metering
49 points of the frame, 
Multi-Pattern measuring

establishes the optimum exposure 
value, even in scenes where highlight and
shadow are not centered in the frame.

Pre-Flash Metering
With a momentary pre-flash, the camera
illuminates the subject and calculates
exposure through the lens directly from
the CCD. Adjustable flash level and red-
eye reduction insure great flash shots.

Memory Stick

® Media 

Digital. Powerful. Transportable.
Memory Stick media is 
compact, portable and

rugged—connecting a variety of 
hardware and software applications.

Scene Selection Mode 

With 3 Scene Modes, camera
parameters can be matched
to the shooting conditions.

Twilight slows the shutter to as long as 
2 seconds for available light, Twilight
Portrait adds flash to illuminate 
foreground subjects, and Landscape
optimizes distant focus.

Slow Shutter Noise Reduction

During long Twilight mode
exposures, Slow Shutter NR
captures the scene, and then

the CCD noise pattern with a dark frame
exposure. By subtracting the two, even
long exposures can be clear.

14-Bit DXP A/D Conversion 

Sony's 14-bit Digital
E

Xtended Processor captures

the range between highlight

and shadow with up to 16384 values, for
extended dynamic contrast and detail.

1.5" LCD Monitor
Monitors the scene for accurate framing.
123K pixel and anti-glare coating help
provide excellent viewing and image
playback clarity, even outdoors.

Auto Bright Monitoring
To help framing in low- or no-light 
situations, CCD gain is briefly increased
to provide an extra bright display on the
LCD viewfinder just before exposure.

True Zoom Optical Viewfinder
Provides accurate framing at eye level,
great for added stability and following
fast moving subjects.

4MP (2272 x 1704) Image Size

With its high resolution CCD, the 
DSC-P9 captures in 4 different image
sizes, with selectable Fine or Standard
JPEG compression.

Multi Burst Mode

Captures 16 320 x 240
frames as part of a single
1280 x 960 image which

plays back sequentially in the camera.
Selectable 1/7.5 or 1/15 or 1/30 second
frame intervals provide convenient
motion analysis.

MPEG Movie HQX Mode

Captures full frame playback,
high frame rate (16 frames
per second) audio/video clips 

with length limited only by the capacity
of the media. MPEG Movie Video Mail
and Presentation modes capture smaller
sizes suitable for email.

Clip Motion Mode

Capture up to 10 images 
and convert them to an 
animated GIF with 2 frames

per second playback. By varying the
interval between shots you can create
animations not possible with other
motion capture modes.

Playback Zoom, Trim and Resize

During playback, magnify
any portion of the image up
to 5x and trim to the area of
your interest. Then, save the
new image as a new file in
any of the image sizes 
available from the menu.

Rechargeable Infolithium® Battery

Provides reliable, long-lasting power for
continuous shooting, and avoids the
“memory effect” common to other 
batteries. AC-LS1 adapter/charger 
provides stable power for USB download.
