the moment. |

One
shot per second, high quality imaging means you never miss another
photo opportunity. |
|
| We're
redefining digital clarity with a 2.14 million-pixel CCD. |
| |
The
high resolution lens, high-speed, high-precision auto focus and
advanced program auto exposure of the PDR-M4 ensure that images
are received in pristine condition before being recorded in UXGA
format (1600x1200 pixels). Recording is then done via a 1/2-inch
2.14 million-pixel charge coupled device (CCD). The result is a
high level of expression and color reproduction with a sharpness
and clarity comparable to that attained by conventional 35mm photography.
SVGA format (800 x 600 pixels) is also available in order to allow
the easy download of images for computers of use on the internet.
Compression
settings to suit your needs.
Whether
you choose to use UXGA or SVGA, the shoot can be further improved
by choosing one of three compression settings. Normal for standard
shooting requirements, Fine, in cases where the emphasis lies
in image quality and Basic, for when quantity of shooting is more
important.

response for exceptional ease of operation. |

Shooting
intervals of less than one second.
Until
now, operational response has been an inherent problem of the digital
camera. The PDR-M4 has addressed these problems and is ready to
shoot just two seconds after the power has been switched on, It
is also capable of shooting intervals of less than one second. Performance
of this kind brings a welcome fluidity to digital photography and
also means less missed opportunities.
Four
frames per second continuous shooting.
The
PDR-M4 offers continuous shooting of approximately four frames
per second in UXGA format or approximately 16 frames in four seconds
in SVGA format or approximately 16 frames in four seconds in SVGA
format. With this kind of performance, you'll never miss a shot.
Also featured is a multi-shot function, allowing you to view 16
frames on one screen and pseudo-video playback. Handy for checking
sequential images, such as your golf swing.
