The image sensor,
where quality begins
In the beginning, there was light. And at the heart
of every Cyber-shot digital still camera, it is the
image sensor that collects the light that eventually
becomes your creation.
Since the appearance of the first CCD (Charge
Coupled Device) in 1978, Sony has been
developing its own image sensors, culminating in
the release of the "Exmor" CMOS (Complementary
Metal Oxide Semiconductor) sensor in 2007. This
highly efficient low-voltage sensor produces
images with virtually no vertical striping and vastly
reduced image noise. And it's remarkably fast too,
making possible burst shooting in Sony digital
