About this product

Product Information

The bigger the imager, the better the image. That's why the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-R1 incorporates an APS-class image sensor more than 12 times the size of the typical sensor. You'll get high sensitivity, low noise and a phenomenal 10.3 Megapixels of resolution. This is the world's first camera to combine an APS-class sensor with Live Preview of the scene, so you can compose your shot with full framing, exposure and white balance accuracy.The DSC-R1 incorporates a pro-quality Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar 5X Optical zoom lens with T (T-star) coatings. With its 24mm wide end (35mm equivalent) you can shoot wide angles that typical digital cameras just can't match, while maintaining plenty of telephoto reach. The Free-Angle 2.0" LCD monitor lets you shoot from waist height, over your head or even floor level.Adjust your exposure with 16-step aperture and 49-step shutter speed. Get more punch from your pictures with Advanced Gradation Control System. Achieve more expressive color with Sony's Vivid RGB mode. And take your pictures to a new level of professionalism with Sony's new Image Data Converter SR software for RAW image conversion.

    A Classic Camera and Still Fantastic Value

    Sony released this in 2005, but, do yourself a favour, and don't let its age put you off buying one. It has a 10.3 megapixel APS-C CMOS sensor behind a fixed Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar lens, providing for an angle of view equivalent to 24–120 mm on a full frame camera. But its biggest secret is that it has no limit to flash sync speed, as there is no mirror or physical shutter system. Many reviewers complained about it being unusable above 800 ISO or not being very good for action shots. But stick a manual flash with adjustable power levels on this thing, then select shutter speed priority, and leave it at 160 ISO. I guarantee it will surprise you with what it can do. IMO there is still nothing like this out there on the market, even today, for the money.

  • An oldie but a goodie!

    I had one of these way back, and decided to get one for testing. Yes, it’s heavy, doesn’t have the slickness of modern cameras, but the lens is wonderful. I took some shots with my Fuji XT-1 fitted with the 35mm F1.4 (50mm equivalent) and then the same shots with the Sony set at the same focal length. I preferred the Sony shots: should tell you all you need to know!

  • Great point and shoot camera

    Being 14 year old still takes amazing quality images due to its high spec Carl Zeiss lens and its large aps size cmos sensor. Can be used as a point and shoot camera or has all the settings of more sophisticated high end DSLR.

  • Still a great camera in 2019

    I often looked at this camera over the years, wondering if it really lived up to the hype. So it's 2019 and I spotted one, in apparently mint condition for the princely sum of £85. My curiosity got the better of me and I bought it. I'd just like to caveat my opinion with the fact that slow operating cameras don't bother me, I shoot with the Sigma foveon cameras and nothing is slower than those, low-fi operation with hifi resutls. I was really more interested in whether the lens on this camera is as good as they say it is. So when it arrived, in excellent condition, I fired it up and yes, the lens is truly excellent throughout its range, it only took a few test shots to confirm that. The colour rendition of this camera is also excellent, accurate and punchy. In terms of operation it was ...

  • A hidden gem in discontinued cameras

    I used one of these when they first hit the market many years ago. The APSC sensor and 10.3 megapixels are complimeneted by the incredible Carl Zeiss lens. The results are images that many of todays cameras quite frankly, still can't match. If you can grab a good second-hand one; do..!
