Sonys first camera with wireless capabilities is the Cybershot DSC-G1 was released in 8 March 2007. With just a touch of a button you can instantly and wirelessly send your photos to a DNLA (Digital Living Network Alliance) compatible PC or another camera. The 2GB internal memory capacity (stores up to 7,500 VGA-quality or 600 6-megapixel photos) means you will not need memory card storage for your photos. The G1 also has a different design approach than other Cyber-shot cameras. Its bigger and thicker than most, “with a curious wedge-shaped design that fits somewhat oddly into the hand”. Sonys Super Steady Shot is the optical image stabilisation by Sony for steady and sharp, crystal clear photos. Like all other Sony digital cameras, it is based on Carl Zeiss lens, but, you slide the lens cover across, instead of down as with previous models, and youre ready to shoot in less than a second.The Cybershot DSC-G1 is expected to be in shops starting April and will be available for purchase at a start price of $600. Im looking forward to find out more about this cameras image quality capabilities.
