Sony’s 12x optical zoom lens gets you far closer than conventional lenses,
while maintaining every pixel of resolution. Since optical quality is critical,
Sony uses a Carl Zeiss
®
lens. And since 12x optical zoom can magnify the
effect of camera shake, Super SteadyShot
®
stabilization helps keep
your pictures clearer.

The DSC-R1 image sensor is literally 12 times the typical size! That’s
12 times the area to soak up light. The result? Gorgeous color. Amazing
sensitivity. And the superb clarity that only a larger sensor can deliver.
