Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-T700 and DSC-T77 digital cameras with what it claims are more "intelligent" shooting functions. The 10-megapixel T77 camera is Sony's thinnest model at less than 5/8 of an inch with a 3-inch, 16x9 touch panel LCD screen. It features updated intelligent scene recognition technology, Smile Shutter and face detection technologies (with child and adult priority), as well as high sensitivity shooting (up to ISO 3200), eleven scene modes, and in-camera image management.

The slightly thicker T700 -- measuring just over 5/8 of an inch -- model offers all the features of the T77 unit plus 4GB of internal memory (nearly 1,000 full-resolution photos) along with a larger 3.5-inch, wide touch panel Xtra Fine LCD screen for photo-like viewing (210 pixel-per-inch resolution).

Both cameras feature a newly-developed Carl Zeiss lens that integrates a 4x optical zoom and Optical SteadyShot image stabilization and will also be available in a wider selection of color options than previous T-series cameras. In addition, the new digicams feature updated intelligent scene recognition technology that can now select up to eight different scene modes, including macro, portrait and landscape modes.

Sony's new digital cameras also bring a new anti-blink function in portrait mode that it says will "virtually make closed-eyed photos an 'old school' memory." The cameras will automatically take two shots and then determine whether the subject(s) have closed eyes using their advanced face detection technology and will only record images with open-eyed subjects (or will record one and display a warning).
