Simply press the shutter button and sweep the camera in the desired direction and the camera continuously shoots at a high speed, then seamlessly stitches the images together with automatic position adjustment to create one stunning panoramic image. Available in wide and ultra-wide options, the camera can take panoramic shots of up to 268 degrees. Now capturing wide landscapes is as easy as press and sweep.

Optical SteadyShot image stabilization  
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Optical SteadyShot image stabilization uses a built-in gyro sensor to detect camera shake and automatically shifts the lens to help prevent blur without sacrificing image quality.

Intelligent Auto Mode
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Unlike traditional auto mode, Intelligent Auto (iAuto) mode thinks for you, recognizing scenes, lighting conditions, faces, and adjusts settings resulting clear images, faces with natural skin tone and less blur. Take advantage of all the technology without leaving Auto mode. Kids on the playground, landscape shots, a beautiful flower or an indoor birthday party; all result in clear images without leaving auto mode.

Soft Skin Mode  
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Portrait subjects will love the results. Soft Skin mode recognizes skin tones and reduces the appearance of blemishes and wrinkles without affecting the rest of the shot.

Natural Flash  
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Conventional point-and-shoot camera flash shots just don't capture colors the way the eye sees them.  Natural Flash mode takes a reference shot without flash and then uses that reference to correct the color, for far more lifelike images.

Self-Portrait Timer
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Self-Portrait Timer helps take the guesswork out of self portraits by utilizing Face Detection technology to recognize when your face enters the frame. Once the camera detects your face, it triggers a 2-second timer, and then snaps a picture.
 
In camera guide   
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Take all the guesswork out of photography with the in camera guide. It’s convenient step by step instructions lead you to the perfect shot.

Face Detection technology
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Face Detection technology detects up to eight individual faces and adjusts focus, exposure, and white balance to help deliver crisp, properly lit images of family and friends.

Smile Shutter technology
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Smile Shutter technology captures a smile the moment it happens. Simply press the Smile Shutter button and the camera does the rest. Also select adult and child priority and indicate the degree of Smile Detection Sensitivity. Intelligent Scene Recognition can now be used together with Smile Shutter mode when the Intelligent Auto mode is on.

Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens with 25mm wide 4x Optical Zoom
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - The high-performance Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 4x optical zoom lens brings distant subjects closer for video recording as well as for outdoor, sports, and travel photos, and Close Focus shoots close-ups up to just under ½-inch from the subject. A 25mm wide-angle lens allows you to take wider shots of the scene or group in crowded spaces.

Anti-blink Function
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - It’s frustrating to capture the perfect shot, only to review it later and discover subjects blinked during the photo. The Anti-blink function works to help counter blinking and squinting. When the camera is set to Soft Snap, the Anti-blink function captures two images, recording only the photo with less squinting. If a blink is detected in other shooting modes, a warning will be displayed after you take the shot.

Dynamic Range Optimizer Standard and Plus
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Dynamic Range Optimizer (DRO) Standard and Plus uses a sophisticated algorithm to help recover shadows and highlights. The result is more natural images with clearer details that more closely match what your naked eye sees. DRO is particularly effective when shooting backlit portraits or any scene with a dramatic contrast between background and foreground lighting. DRO Plus allows for even greater optimization by analyzing each region of an image and performing additional image processing.

Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode  
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - Intelligent Scene Recognition (iSCN) Mode automatically detects eight different types of scenes and, within just 1/30th of a second, selects the appropriate camera settings: Backlight, Backlight Portrait, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Twilight using a tripod, Portrait, Landscape and macro. iSCN has two modes: Auto and Advanced. In Auto Mode, the camera takes a single shot using the optimal settings. In Advanced Mode, the camera takes a photo with the optimal settings and, if in difficult lighting (low light or back light) immediately takes a second photo with another optimized setting so you can choose which to keep.

High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 3200)
Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W560 14.1 MP Digital Still Camera Review - High ISO allows for faster shutter speed, so you can take photos indoors or in low light without the need for a flash. In addition to High Sensitivity Mode (ISO), you can select up to seven ISO settings (Auto, 125, 200, 400, 800, 1600, 3200) when shooting in Program Auto Mode to adjust sensitivity to your shooting conditions.
