A genius called TX1

" Hey, no FLASHicon:w_5_l_thunder pleaseeeicon:mark3_sign04icon:face3_kao27 "



I bet most of EVERYONE does not flavor camera's flash at all coz flashicon:w_5_l_thunder make us look even uglier in the darkicon:mark3_sign01icon:face3_kao15



Flash just ruins the whole romantic dim-lit atmosphereicon:mark3_sign03 icon:face3_kao27

Whereas if we shoot it without Flash, we got thisicon:a2_down icon:face3_kao27

Righticon:mark3_sign02 icon:an_c_hiyoko



Yesicon:mark3_sign01icon:face3_kao15



Everyone knows it, and the maker knows it too. icon:o_k_kouguicon:h_kira02


That's why they've now created a real genius compact-digi-cam for the eraicon:mark3_sign01icon:o_cameraicon:h_shine


The FIRSTicon:h_shineicon:body3_te03 on earthicon:mark3_sign01 in a compact-digi-cam that came out with a function you might have longed foricon:mark3_sign04 icon:face_self-conscious_smileicon:h_heart04

Well, the design may look just normal as the previous, and I don't really like the series of colors of this model. icon:face3_kao21 (Pink looks nice here, but in real it's just so-so. I like SOLID colors now without the blingicon:h_shine icon:face3_kao17)



But, what makes this SPECIALicon:h_kira01 is their new function icon:mark3_new,



[Beautiful Images - Even in Low Light]icon:mark3_sign01icon:o_cameraicon:h_shine icon:w_8_night




Trust me, this gadget is amazingicon:mark3_sign01which able to capture a very unbelievable clear view even in the DARKicon:mark3_sign01icon:w_8_night



Anyway, this amazing function is known as "Exmor R" CMOS sensor.


Exmor-R CMOS sensor gathers source of lights from the surrounding even in dark with just a very dim-light.





Now you gotta see my experiment with this Exmor-Ricon:h_shine
.
.
.
.
.  

To do this experiment, I off-ed all my lights leaving only some source of lights from Yapi's PC's monitor besides me. (I even off-ed my own monitor to experiment with this effect!)



First, with normal-mode.

20091113_harupi_TX1_normal_modeAs expected, can't see a thing but just a mere me.icon:face3_kao17







But with Exmor-R mode, I got thisicon:mark3_sign01

20091113_harupi_TX1_exmor_RBelieve it or noticon:mark3_sign02 (no Photoshop at all!)

Even in the dark, I can see myself icon:body_shadowicon:mark3_sign01icon:face4_kao-a17


And, it's clearicon:mark3_sign01

20091113_harupi_TX1_close_upIt's really amazing with just such a very low-light, I got this resulticon:h_kira01icon:face_self-conscious_smileicon:h_kira01


Normally, it would just darkness. Or even if you are in a bar with brighter yellowish light, you won't see anything as clear as well.  


Exmor-R performs in increasing sensitivity by 2x to reduce noiseicon:mark3_sign01 That's whyicon:mark3_sign03 icon:o_flair


Yeah, even Photoshop can't help a bit if you have a photo only with darkness.icon:w_6_newmoonicon:body_shadow


Of course, a DSLR or pro-camera is efficient enough to perform any respective effect and snap the perfect shot manually with pro-techniques.


But what we are talking about now is, we are not any professional, and we are now capable to snap a professional shot with an automatic compact digi-cameraicon:mark3_sign03 icon:face_self-conscious_smileicon:h_heart04
 


Yayicon:mark3_sign03 for the new ERAicon:mark3_sign03icon:h_kira02icon:h_note icon:face_love







Anyway, I did another experiment with my henniya Blytheicon:face5_girlicon:h_shine




Certainly of course, to try out the effect more, I did the photoshoot in my bedroom with no lights on.icon:w_8_night

20091113_harupi_photoshoot_conditionicon:mark3_check We can't have full darkness, so I leave my door open to let in a light source of light from the living room.

icon:mark3_check Then, my henniya Blythe will be standing by the window for me to shoot. icon:face3_kao09


So, here we go..
.

First, a snap with Normal-modeicon:w_2_kumo

Second snap with Flash-modeicon:w_2_kaminari

So bright and hair looks so plastic. (though it is plastic..) icon:face3_kao17

Now, with Exmor-Ricon:w_7_star

20091113_harupi_blythe_exmor_RNice icon:h_heart08 It's really brilliant. In a room so dark, I can still able to capture this kind of qualityicon:mark3_sign04icon:face3_kao07


I don't think we could do anything to the first snap even with the versatility of Photoshop.

Okay, we might able to edit the second snap to something nicer, but I guess, (even though, it may not need any edits at all) the third snap has the most efficient components to be edited. 

Backgrounds, tones, atmosphere, mood, colors. icon:h_heart08


Anyway, though I think Exmor-R is the main, TX1 has more awesome functions stillicon:mark3_sign03 

The main features:

icon:o_camera2 Beautiful Images - Even in Low Light
icon:o_camera2 Breathtaking Images with Sweet Panorama
icon:o_camera2 Takes 10 Photos in 1 Second
icon:o_camera2 Multi-Porpose Touch Screen
icon:o_camera2 Shoot Movies in HD
icon:o_camera2 iAuto Mode Makes it Easy



Check out Sony Style official site





Therefore, Yapi and I bought ourselves a new TX1 icon:face3_kao07icon:h_heart04, since our old digi-cam ended it's life when I accidentally dropped it to the ground..icon:face3_kao21


We bought Gold, limited color only in Japan. icon:h_shine

I like bright cute colors though...icon:face3_kao10

And the pink is not my pink...icon:face3_kao13

Thinking of decorating it, and I want it to be cute.icon:face_self-conscious_smileicon:h_heart04



But, highly reccomendedicon:mark3_sign01
