- General
- Product Name: DSC-TX30 18.2-Megapixel Waterproof Digital Camera
- Brand: Sony
- Model Number: DSCTX30/P
- Color: Pink
- Digital Camera Type: Point and Shoot Cameras
- Imaging
- Image Sensor Type: CMOS (CCD and CMOS are the two main technologies used in image sensors. CCD, the older of the two types, turns analog light signals into digital pixels. This conversion happens without distortion, resulting in high-quality images. Newer CMOS sensors use transistors at each pixel to move electrical charges. CMOS sensors are typically less expensive, but also require more light to create distortion-free images.)
- Image Resolution (Display): 4896 x 3672 (Refers to the number of pixels, both horizontally and vertically, used to either capture an image or display it. The higher the resolution the finer the image details.)
- Zoom Capability: true (This function allows for magnification of the subject.)
- Digital Zoom: 2x (A digital zoom is accomplished electronically, with no adjustment of the camera's optics, and no optical resolution gained in the process. The existing data is not enhanced or added to, merely displayed at a lower resolution, thereby giving an illusion of an enlarged image.)
- Low Light/High Sensitivity: true (High sensitivity digital imaging devices are designed to work in low light conditions to produce a high dynamic range image.)
- Image File Format(s): AVCHD, Other (Standardized software format(s) of storing digital images. The type of format chosen for capturing and compressing the image can determine quality, level of detail, and storage space required.)
- Focus
- Autofocus: true (Allows the camera to automatically focus through the lens, rather than by adjusting the lens manually.)
- Exposure Control
- Shutter Speeds: iAuto: 4 - 1/1600 sec.; Program Auto: 1 - 1/1600 sec. (The length of time the shutter remains open when the shutter release is activated, expressed in fractions of seconds. The longer the shutter is open, the more light that is able to be captured by the camera sensor.)
- Minimum Aperture: 3.5 f/ (The smallest opening of a lens, typically expressed in f-numbers. The larger the number, the smaller the aperture and the less light that can enter the lens. A smaller aperture creates a larger depth of field, which keeps both foreground and background in focus.)
- Maximum Aperture: 3.5 f/ (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)
- Burst Mode: true (Also referred to as continuous shooting. This feature captures multiple shots in rapid succession.)
- Self Timer: true
- Shooting Modes: None (Exposure modes employed by the photographer to control the optimal aperture, shutter speed, ISO, and other settings for capturing specific subjects/scenes. Examples include Aperture-Priority, Macro, and Manual modes.)
- Panorama Mode: true
- White Balance Modes: Auto, daylight, cloudy, fluorescent 1 (white fluorescent lighting), fluorescent 2 (natural white fluorescent lighting), fluorescent 3 (day white fluorescent lighting), incandescent, flash, 1 push, 1 push set (Settings that calibrates how the color white is rendered in an image/video, reducing the appearance of unnatural contrasts caused by various light sources.)
- Flash
- Flash Modes: Auto, Off, Slow sync (The flash feature emits light to increase the brightness of a subject in dimly lit environments. Common modes include Auto and Red-Eye Reduction.)
- Integrated Flash: true
- Display
- Display Type: Other
- Screen Size: 3.3 inches (Size of the screen, measured diagonally from corner to corner.)
- Touch Screen: true (Touch-screen devices make navigating more intuitive. Using a touch-screen display, you can do things such as tap to select, hold and drag to move items, swipe to scroll, and pinch to zoom.)
- Compatibility
- Tripod/Monopod Mountable: No (A support function that allows the device to be mounted to monopods and tripods for leveling and stability.)
- Memory Card Compatibility: Memory Stick Micro, microSD, microSDHC (The type of memory card(s) recommended for use with the product.)
- Features
- Face Detection: true (A function that automatically detects human faces and then sets focus and appropriate exposure to capture them.)
- Integrated GPS: No
- Records Audio: true
- Connectivity
- Output(s): HDMI
- PictBridge Enabled: false (PictBridge allows digital cameras, camcorders and other image capture devices to connect and print directly to photo printers and other output devices without using a computer.)
- Power
- AC Adapter Compatible: true (The device is able to be charged using an external power adapter which meets input and output voltages specified by the manufacturer.)
- Performance
- Maximum Height of Shock Resistance: 5 feet (Maximum height from which the product can be dropped and resist some degree of damage from impact.)
- Included
- Batteries Included: true (Indicates whether the product comes with the required batteries for its operation.)
- AC Adapter Included: true (An external power adapter is included for operation.)

- DSC-TX30 18.2-Megapixel Waterproof Digital Camera
A: I used it in saltwater when I went away this past July. The only thing I did was when I got back to my room I filled my sick up with warm water. I swished it in the water for 60 seconds making sure I slid the cover down. After I rinsed it I let it dry on a towel for 30 minutes.
Q: is a battery included in this product?
A: Hi Park, the battery pack NPBN1, is included in the box when you purchase the camera. Thanks_Mitch
Q: Megapixels
A: Hi, 18MP resolution can provide you a quality print on a 20x20 scale. Vincent
Q: When will the Sony TX30 color black be available to buy?
A: Hi. please contact your local BestBuy store for further assistance. Dave
A: Hi Glenda, sorry but the camera do not have night vision features. ILCE/DSCRX models are capable of doing low light photography but they are not waterproof. The TX units are mostly waterproof. Best regards, Zander
Q: how can i get the sofware to see my picture on my computer?, i dont have a SD adapter
A: Hi Marie, you can connect the camera to the computer via the supplied USB cable. Dave
Q: does this camera come with a wrist strap?
A: No, the camera does not include a wrist strap.
A: Hi Jess Lawren, The night setting provides a good dynamic range and details even in low light condition. It has specific Scene Modes like Night Portrait, Night Scene, and Hand-held Twilight which gives the user ease of use even in dark environment. Best regards, Zander
