Sony MPK-THF and MPK-WD underwater housings (27-01-2008)

Sony has announced two new additions to their marine pack series for Cyber-shot digital cameras.

The MPK-THF underwater housing is designed for the new DSC-T300 camera.

The T300 is Sony's newest high-end slim camera, with a 10.1MP sensor, a 16:9 3.5 inch screen and a Carl Zeiss 5x zoom (33-165mm). The camera can dynamically switch between five scene modes, trigger the shutter when it detects a smile, and provides face detection and searching, improved close up focusing, and image stabilization. To view your images in stunning 1080 HD resolution slide shows, you can simply connect the DSC-T300 camera to a compatible HDTV set.

The MPK-WD marine pack is designed for the new Cyber-shot DSC-W150 and W170 digital cameras.

The 10.1-megapixel DSC-W170 and 8.1-megapixel DSC-W150 models feature Carl Zeiss 5x optical zoom lenses with wide angles of view, 28 mm-140 mm and 30 mm-150 mm, respectively, and 2.7-inch LCD screens along with eye-level viewfinders.

The MPK-THF and MPK-WD underwater housings make underwater shooting possible to a depth of up to 40m (132ft), and allow operation over the power button, mode change, shutter and flash functions. Close-up shooting is enabled using the Macro Mode and Magnifying Glass Mode in the camera's Scene Selection. A removable LCD hood is included for easy viewing underwater, as is a hand strap.

These new underwater housings will start shipping in February 2008.
