Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T10

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T10 offers a CCD sensor resolution of 7.2 effective megapixels and ISO sensitivity from 80 to 1000, coupled with an optically stabilized Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar branded 3x optical zoom lens. The lens has an 35mm equivalent focal length range of 38 to 114mm. Other features of the Sony DSC-T10 include shutter speeds from 1 to 1/1000 second, a choice of Multi-pattern, Center-weighted, or Spot metering, five white balance presets, 10 scene modes, USB and video connectivity, and both Memory Stick Duo/Pro Duo storage coupled with 56MB of built-in memory.


The Sony T10 appears to use the same lens and imager combination as the previous Cyber-shot DSC-T30 model. Changes from that camera include a slightly smaller, lighter body (essentially that used in the DSC-T9 with a modified lens cover), the savings achieved thanks to the use of a smaller 2.5-inch LCD as opposed to the T30's 3-inch screen. The flash range is also somewhat reduced in the Sony Cybershot T10, and the 16-frame playback mode of the T30 removed since the LCD display is smaller. The built-in memory shrinks 2MB from the T30's 58MB, and the built-in battery is an NP-FT1 InfoLITHIUM instead of the T30's NP-FR1 type. CIPA battery life is rated at 250 shots, versus 420 shots for the T30. Most other features are unchanged.
