The new 10.1-megapixel Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T300 digital camera features a stylish, ultra-compact design and intelligent functionality to help reduce the risk of taking a bad photo. The new Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T300 incorporates Sony’s new intelligent scene recognition (iSCN), a technology that allows the camera to analyze shooting conditions and automatically select the optimal settings for the best photo results. In iSCN mode, the camera can automatically detect up to five scenes, and choose the best setting for the situation. In advanced iSCN mode, the camera will shoot using the user’s settings and then will automatically step in and take a second shot with optimized settings. If the camera determines that the user’s settings are best, then a second photo is not taken. The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T300 integrates a widescreen 3.5-inch touch screen, a 5x optical zoom lens, Super Steady Shot image stabilization, high sensitivity settings up to ISO 3200 and a Bionz processing engine. An optional cable connects the camera to HDTVs.

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T300 will be available in red, black and silver in March for about $400.
