DIGITAL SLR Bionz Engine
Enrich the power of every photo
The newly developed Sony Bionz Engine powers image processing for the A100 to ensure that all of the rich
colour and detail are as vivid as you remember. The sophisticated algorithm easily handles high-speed, high
quality processing to reduce unwanted image noise without degrading resolution or colour integrity. The Bionz
engines' rapid processing capabilities enables the A100 to perform unlimited continuous shooting, at 3 frames
per second as well as the real-time D-Range Optimizer. This engine also accurately controls colour saturation,
contrast and white balance to produce sharp, vivid, yet natural images.
DIGITAL SLR High-Speed Response
Ready when you are
Powered by the Sony Bionz Engine, the A100 is equipped with an unlimited
continuous burst mode that allows continuous advance shooting at up to 3
frames per second in JPEG 10MP Fine mode
on the shutter release button and continue until the camera's memory card is
full. You can also capture a single burst of 6 consecutive frames when shooting
in RAW mode or 3 frames when shooting RAW+JPEG simultaneously
Eye-Start system, meanwhile incorporates an infrared sensor just below the
eyepiece to detect when the viewfinder is being used. It then automatically
activates auto-focus so you are ready to shoot immediately.

Shooting speed and total number of images recorded is dependent on memory card speed and capacity,
as well as shooting conditions.
DIGITAL SLR D-Range Optimizer
Find the perfect balance
The D-Range Optimizer function accurately adjusts exposure balance when shooting under high contrast lighting and colour conditions, such as with
strong backlighting. In Standard Mode, the D-Range Optimizer measures the brightness of the entire scene in real-time to determine the most appropriate
exposure balance. In Advanced Mode, the D-Range Optimizer analyses individual sub-sections of the image and adjusts the brightness of each area
individually to ensure your photo is as beautiful and balanced as the scene that inspired you.
