Product Description
Representing the next level of digital still photography, Sony's DSC-F828 Cyber-shot Camera is the first to incorporate four-color filter CCD technology and a Real Imaging Processor. These new components are integral in capturing color accuracy closest to what the human eye can see, setting a new benchmark in camera performance. The new (RGB+E) filter adds an emerald-colored pixel to the filter pattern, realizing color fidelity that is closer to human color perception. Photographers will notice an extraordinarily life-like rendering of blue, blue-green and red hues.The Real Imaging Processor delivers increased speed with lower power consumption, enabling the F828 to capture an eight-megapixel image in almost half the time required by typical five-megapixel cameras! New manual controls, coupled with Carl Zeiss T optics, gives advanced photographers a broader range of mechanisms to determine focus, exposure and recording modes. Images can be stored onto CompactFlash Type I and Type II media, as well as a Microdrive hard disk drive or Memory Stick PRO media. The Cyber-shot F828 truly embodies a premier imaging experience.

      F828 great camera ! Much more than the new DSCR1

    I have made photography for more than 30 years. This is the best camera I everhad.

    Pros : The most flexible, versatile and complete in all ways. Lens goes from full wide angle (28mm) to real good telephoto (200mm), wich really lets you choose the proper "cadrage". Offers real flexibility to compensate for backlit subjects without compromising on the overall scene. With 8 megapixels, you can use only 1/10th of the picture and enlarge it to a still very good 8x10 picture. The four color capture device brings vivid colours in "real color" mode. The three intensity mode flash gives very goof flexibility for night picture and works great to compensate for high contrast lightning conditions, as in a very sunny day when taking picture of peoples.

    Cons: one needs to invest a couple of hours to learn how to use all the options. Then one needs to take A LOT of picture in all possible lightning conditons in order to master this beast!

    Some controls, like the "red eyes reduction", are misplaced and to long to reach. Should have been placed in the "instant menu" instead of the setup menu.

    I you ever plan to buy the new 10 gigapixels DSCR1 model, consider first bying the F828. Unfortunately, the DSCR1 is NOT as flexible and complete than the F828 :( No more video capacity, lens from 24mm to a much too short 120mm, and with that model Sony came back to a 3 colour CCD (capture device), while the 4 colour CCD is so wonderfull! What a loss... and who needs 10.3 megapixels anyway??? Do you really plan to make 4'x6' posters of your pictures ?

    I LOVE LOVE LOVE that F828 !!!!!!!!
