In this section we present pros and cons of Sony Cyber-shot DSC-QX10.
And here are some specifications which fall into average criteria and are neither in PROs nor in CONs category:
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-QX10 has a [] Fixed touchscreen with 0k dot resolution. This is the lowest resolution screen camera in our database.
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-QX10 features a 18.2 megapixel 1/2.3-inch BSI-CMOS sensor with dimensions of 6.17 x 4.55 mm and a total area of 28.1 mm2. Its native ISO range is 100 - 3,200 and expands to 100 - 12,800 in boosted mode.
The camera has BSI-CMOS sensor, short for Backside Illuminated Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor sensor. In traditional CMOS sensors, the wiring and circuitry are located on the front side of the sensor, which can block some of the incoming light. BSI technology flips this design by placing the photosensitive elements (pixels) on the backside of the sensor, allowing more light to reach the pixels. This significantly enhances light sensitivity and improves low-light performance. BSI-CMOS sensors are particularly effective in low-light conditions, as they can capture more light, resulting in brighter and less noisy images. This makes them well-suited for indoor and night photography. BSI-CMOS sensors deliver a higher SNR and reduced cross-talk.
Camera can take pictures up to 4896 x 3672 resolution. It can also take pictures with lower resolutions like 2592 x 1944 (4:3), 4896 x 2752 (16:9), 1920 x 1080 (16:9) with 4:3, 16:9 aspect ratios.
The camera has an image stabilization.
Camera has a built-in Wi-Fi which allows to easily transfer photos and videos from the camera to other Wi-Fi-enabled devices, such as smartphones, tablets, printers, or computers. This eliminates the need for cables and allows for quick and convenient media sharing and social media integration. It gives you the ability to control your camera remotely using a smartphone or tablet. This is particularly useful for taking self-portraits, group shots, or capturing images in challenging conditions without having to touch the camera. Firmware updates can also be downloaded and installed wirelessly.
