Extraordinary Realistic Detail

New BIONZ X image processing engine

Sony proudly introduces the new BIONZ X image processing engine, which faithfully reproduces textures and details in real time, as seen by the naked eye, via extra high-speed processing capabilities. Together with front-end LSI (large scale integration) that accelerates processing in the earliest stages, it enables more natural details, more realistic images, richer tonal gradations and lower noise whether you shoot still images or movies

Detail reproduction technology and diffraction-reducing technology

Detail reproduction technology depicts details more faithfully with a more natural sense of dimension by preventing the overemphasized outlines that plague most digital images. Diffraction-reducing technology suppresses the effects of diffraction, which causes points of light to appear blurred especially at small aperture settings. By taking the aperture setting into account, this technology faithfully restores clarity to points of light and other fine details: It brings out the potential of the lens and image sensor so you can enjoy deep focus shooting of landscapes and more with a higher sense of clarity.

Area-specific noise reduction

Area-specific noise reduction is now more powerful than ever. It selectively devices the image into areas based on patterns ( such as edges, textures and evenly coloured areas like blue skies), then applies the most appropriate noise reduction for each area to markedly reduce noise and improve image.
