DSC-F717
Cyber-shot
®
Digital Still Camera
With its Carl Zeiss
®
lens, 5 Megapixel resolution, advanced camera control technology
and intuitive interface, the DSC-F717 is a digital camera of extraordinary performance
and flexibility. From its unique low light shooting capabilities to its superb image
quality, the DSC-F717 helps you capture a new level of digital imaging possibilities.
F E A T U R E S
2/3" 5.0 Megapixel Super HAD™ CCD
Super HAD (Hole
Accumulation Diode) CCDs
provide excellent image quality
by allowing more light to pass to each pixel,
increasing sensitivity and reducing noise.
Carl Zeiss
®
Vario-Sonnar
®
Lens
Famous for sharpness & color
accuracy, the Vario-Sonnar 5X
Optical zoom lens features 13
elements in 10 groups with 2 aspheric
elements and 6 blade aperture. Its fast
f 2.0 aperture is great for low light shooting.
5 Area Multi-Point Auto Focus
Evaluating 5 separate areas
of the frame, Sony's Multi-
Point AF system intelligently
focuses on the subject, and displays the
selected focus point. Alternately, choose
any of the 5 points for manual control.
Manual Focus/Zoom Ring
Take precise control of zoom
and manual focus with the
lens mounted ring. Fast,
intuitive framing is easy with its natural
"feel", and two speed action.
Hologram AF™ Illuminator
Projecting a Class 1 laser
pattern, Hologram AF reads
the contrast between the
pattern's edge and the subject for
precise focus, even in low or no light.
Multi-Pattern Measuring
Independently light-metering
49 points of the frame, Multi-
Pattern Measuring determines
the optimum exposure, even when highlight
and shadow are randomly distributed.
Pre-Flash Metering
With a momentary pre-flash, the camera
illuminates the subject and calculates
exposure through the lens directly from
the CCD for accurate flash metering.
Adjustable flash level and red-eye
reduction insure great flash shots.

Memory Stick
®
Media
Digital. Powerful. Transportable.™
Memory Stick media is
compact, portable and
rugged – connecting a variety of
hardware and software applications.
14-Bit DXP A/D Conversion
Sony's 14-bit Digital EXtended
Processor captures the range
between highlight and shadow
with up to 16,384 values, for extended
dynamic contrast and detail.
Slow Shutter Noise Reduction
At shutter speeds 1/25 sec.
and longer, Slow Shutter NR
captures the scene, and then
the CCD noise pattern with a dark frame
exposure. By subtracting the two, even
long exposures can be clear.
Dynamic White Balance
Accurate color balance under changing
lighting and exposure settings is realized
by linking the White Balance to the
Exposure and Flash systems. Manual
setting allows calibration with white card.
Manual Exposure Controls
Flexible Exposure control is
provided with Aperture
Priority (f2 – 8), Shutter
Priority (30 sec– 1/1000 sec) and Manual
Exposure modes. EV Compensation and
flash output level allow fine tuning.
Live Histogram Display
Available for capture and playback, the
live histogram displays number of pixels
at each luminosity to evaluate exposure.
Eye-level & 1.8 " LCD Viewfinders
For accurate framing and following fast
action, both the 180K pixel eye-level
finder and 1.8" 123K pixel LCD provide
through-the-lens viewing & menu display.
Quick Start-up and Response
Ready to shoot in little more than a
second, the DSC-F717 reduced shutter
lag and extraordinary responsiveness is
always ready to capture the action.
5 MP (2560 x1920) Image Size
With its high resolution CCD, the
DSC-F717 captures in 4 different image
sizes, in TIFF or Fine/Standard JPEG modes.
NightShot
®
Infrared System
Capture infrared digital images
in total darkness at up 15 feet.
By illuminating the subject
with infrared light and removing the CCD's
IR cut filter, the NightShot
®
system makes
infrared digital imaging a reality.
NightFraming System
To capture beautiful color
images in low or no light,
NightFraming illuminates the
subject with the NightShot
®
system for
proper framing, focuses with Hologram
AF and lights the scene with flash.
File Folder Tool
By creating separate folders on Memory
Stick media, you can select the location
in which to record your images, helping
organize your files.
MPEG Movie HQX Mode
Captures full frame playback,
high frame rate (16 fps)
video clips (w/audio) with
length limited only by the capacity of the
media.
Multi Burst Mode
Captures 16 320 x240
frames as part of a single
1280 x 960 image which
plays back sequentially in the camera.
Selectable 1/7.5, 1/15 or 1/30 second
frame intervals provide convenient
motion analysis.
Hot Shoe and ACC Terminal
Connect Sony's HVL-F1000 flash or
Remote Controls with ACC Terminal, or
synchronize other flash units or studio
lighting with the Hot Shoe terminal.
Rechargeable InfoLithium
®
Battery
Provides reliable, long-lasting power for
continuous shooting, without "memory
effect". AC-L10 adapter/charger provides
stable power for USB transfer.
