Sony Expands Cybershot W-Series With New Smile Shutter Mode

Sony has expanded its mid-range digital camera with a line of colorful W-series Cybershot cameras including (10.1-megapixel) DSC-W170, (8.1-megapixel) DSC-W150, (8.1-megapixel) DSC-W130 and (7.2 megapixel) DSC-W120, providing a choice of multi-colour options for consumers to suit their lifestyle.

According to the company, “Newly-available on the W-series cameras is Sony’s “smile shutter” mode, which automatically captures an image when your subject smiles – without having to press the shutter. This function even lets you prioritize adult or child faces to capture photos only when the intended subjects smile.”

The latest Sony Cybershot W-Series point and shoot camera is expected to be released in coming April 2008.
