About the Sony DSC-HX7V Compact Camera
The Sony DSC-HX7V is a compact travel-zoom camera that balances pocketability with a versatile 10x optical zoom lens. Its 16.2-megapixel sensor captures detailed images, while the 25mm wide-angle setting is useful for landscapes and group shots. Full HD 1080i video recording with stereo sound makes it a capable all-rounder for holidays and everyday shooting. The 3-inch LCD screen provides a clear view for framing and playback. The HX7V also offers Sweep Panorama and 3D shooting modes, along with a range of automatic controls and creative modes. It is a solid choice for anyone wanting a step up from a basic point-and-shoot without carrying a larger camera.
