Other selectable shooting modes include background defocus, which processes the image to blur background details, leaving the main subject sharply focused. The panorama mode lets users choose between 2D and 3D Sweep Panorama settings, both of which will capture and stitch a high-speed burst of frames to create a single picture.
An additional Sweep Multi Angle mode records 15 images at different angles and then compiles them into one photo. More on this feature below. The WX7 includes several other built-in shooting aids that have been offered for a couple of generations of Cyber-shots. Sensor and Image Processing The Measuring 6.
This technology was introduced in August and claims double the sensitivity of front-illuminated sensors. In the continuous shooting mode, the upper limit is ISO However, it supports both 4;3 and aspect ratio capture for still shots and offers four image sizes for the former and two for the latter. Image quality cannot be adjusted. The table below shows typical image sizes. In Sweep Panorama mode 2D , the camera provides two sizes standard and wide , with the standard setting recording x pixels horizontally and x pixels vertically, while the wide setting records x and x pixels respectively.
For the 3D Sweep Panorama mode, the respective resolutions are the same. The Sweep Multi-angle setting captures a x pixel frame. The WX7 also offers plenty of choices for recording movie clips, with the highest resolution settings using interlaced frame capture that gives Full HD movie clips that are as sharp and smooth as clips from many digital camcorders when the highest resolution setting is used. The table below shows the options provided in this camera. This means still pictures captured in this mode have substantially lower resolution than the camera is capable of.
But the camera can record a burst of shots in this mode. However, if you press the movie button while the camera is set for still capture clips are only recorded while the button is held down. Performance Still pictures from the review camera showed the usual boosted saturation and contrast that characterise shots from most small-sensor digicams. The resulting images looked very nice when displayed at full size on a computer or TV screen, although reds and oranges were a little emphatic.
However, traditionally difficult hues like purple and cyan were reproduced with a close-to-natural appearance. Prints from many images appeared visibly over-saturated and a little over-processed. Both factors were confirmed by out Imatest testing, which also showed resolution to be slightly below expectations for a megapixel camera. The graph below shows the results of our tests. As the Maserati or BMW of laptops, it would fit perfectly in the hands of a professional needing firepower under the hood, sophistication and class on the surface, and gaming prowess sports mode if you will in between.
This small mobile printer is exactly what I need for invoicing and other jobs such as sending fellow tradesman details or step-by-step instructions that I can easily print off from my phone or the Web.

Cons The control layout isn't very intuitive, the telephoto end of the lens has a very slow maximum aperture, viewing a photo at full resolution shows excessive noise reduction and processing.

The WX7 is a small but highly-specified compact, with a competent performance matched with decent image quality. It's only its noise and processing issues which mar its overall score - otherwise it's a winner.
Next: Specifications Jump to All in all, though, the camera's low-grade The sensor is generally good, which surprised us for a camera with high megapixel count and a tiny sensor, but Even though it's got a few too many megapixels for its own good, the Cyber-shot WX7 is a nifty little compact camera with an excellent set of features and a good
