Adding a third dimension to otherwise usual photos, Sony CyberShot TX9 allows photo enthusiasts to capture panoramic photos in 3D with Sony's exlusive 3D Sweep Panorama feature. Users simply have to sweep the camera in a vertical or horizontal direction to capture ultra-wide panorama shots in 3D that users can then view on a compatible screen that supports 3D-viewing via HDMI.

This 3D experience is further enhanced with Sweep Multi View, which shoots and stores 15 images from various viewpoints, and creates three-dimensional visuals. Users can immediately view images with 3D effects on the camera screen itself just by tilting the device.

TX9 also features Background Defocus mode, which allows budding photographers to capture macro and portrait photos with blurred background effect that previously could only be achieved using DSLR cameras.

For capturing fast-moving scenes from sports matches and the like, the TX9 comes equipped with high-speed continuous shooting of 10 frames per second as well as Full HD (1920 x 1090 50i) AVCHD video recording capability.

Ideal for casual users, Sony CyberShot TX9 flaunts a Superior Auto Shooting mode. When activated, SAS automatically chooses optimal settings to match the conditions and shooting scene with merely a press of the shutter button. Additionally, this new camera minimizes the need for post-processing and editing with the new Soft Skin mode that enhances the subject's facial features by defining the eyes and lips and removing skin blemishes for more beautiful portrait shots. Users can choose from 3 Soft Skin modes, namely low, medium and high. TX can enhance the appearance of 8 faces all at the same time!
