The Sony HX300

The Sony HX300 has demonstrated itself a commendable ultrazoom camera. Actually, it has made an extraordinary impact on us with picture quality and shading representation. 
The new 20 megapixel Cyber-shot DSC HX300 replaces the HX200 in Sony's ultra-zoom line-up. When I was a child we viewed Sci-Fi films and read Sci-Fi books that anticipated all the new innovations that would make our lives more fun later on. Something that no one anticipated, back in that day, was PDAs and subsequently PDA cameras. Only a couple of years after the turn of the 21st century a radical new demographic was born–the mobile phone camera picture taker – and P&S camera makers began losing piece of the pie to wireless producers. Camera producers reacted by making considerably littler (much littler than cell phones) ultra-conservative P&S digicams and by presenting two new sorts of Point and Shoot cameras; the Ultrazoom camera (with zooms that ran from around 25x and up) and the travel zoom camera (with zooms that extended from 10x to 25x). For some down to earth minded buyers the main motivation to purchase a different camera is whether it does that something their mobile phone camera can't do–like giving longer zoom ranges, and for a large number of those people, zoom should, as much as possible. 
That clarifies, at any rate partially, why I have had the immense favorable luck to survey an expansive number of ultra-zoom Point and Shoot cameras from a wide assortment of producers in the course of recent years. The astonishing thing about each one of those cameras wasn't their disparities, yet rather how comparable they really were. Every one of them have the same arrangement of faults–slow greatest gaps (normally f3.5 to f4.0), extremely complex multi-component zoom recipes (which decrease contrast), detectable barrel contortion (straight lines bow out from the focal point of the casing) at the wide-edge end of the zoom, expanded purple bordering (chromatic abnormality), more picture clamor than most different classes of computerized cameras, and fluffy/delicate pictures at the telephoto end of those long zooms. 
In any case, a computerized camera with a zoom lens that can go from genuine wide-edge to super telephoto permits picture takers to cover practically the whole range of photographic genres–and mobile phone cameras most certainly can't do that. Which brings us, by and by, to the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX300. The HX300 highlights a recently planned Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar f2.8-f6.3/24mm-1200mm (comparable) zoom with enhanced self-adjust (AF) for better execution at the telephoto end of that 50x zoom and upgraded optical picture adjustment (OIS) made conceivable by including a second gathering of lens components that moves quickly to amend for the scarcest of automatic camera developments – to enhance sharpness at all central lengths. 
So the HX300 comes breaking out of the beginning door with a speedier greatest opening than the majority of its opposition, enhanced AF, and upgraded/enhanced picture adjustment which ought to make this advanced camera an industry pioneer. Notwithstanding, various expert commentators are as of now thumping on the HX300 in light of the fact that it doesn't highlight (in the same way as other of its rivals) a hot shoe, GPS, worked in Wi-Fi, a touch-screen, or a RAW catch mode. Wi-Fi, touch-screens, and GPS are really PDA features–not photography elements and I don't trust any of them are required or even especially coveted by most P&S advanced camera clients. The hot shoe (permitting the utilization of outside glimmer units) is a helpful, if at times utilized, component on cameras of this sort and RAW catch is critical to DSLR picture takers who are a great deal more inclined to participate in post introduction picture control than are clients of buyer focused on ultra-zoom P&S advanced cameras. Sony clearly needed to offer the HX300 for about the same cost as its rivals (around $450.00 MSRP) and that meant–in light of the costly recently outlined zoom, enhanced AF and IS–that something needed to go. So Sony's item improvement people kept the stuff that was vital to the demographic that purchases ultrazoom cameras and skirted the stuff that is not to keep the cost as low as could be expected under the circumstances. Credit to Sony! 

Assemble and Design 
The HX300 looks to some extent like its antecedent. So what's distinctive? I've looked into ultrazoom cameras from Nikon, Panasonic, Olympus, Samsung, and Canon and the optical execution of each one of those cameras was quite than anticipated, yet the AF frameworks and IS frameworks essentially weren't up to the errand of quickly bolting (and holding) concentrate on removed subjects and keeping camera shake at telephoto settings from adversely influencing subject sharpness. The HX300's new lens, quick most extreme opening, enhanced AF and improved IS frameworks have generously improved those issues. While the HX300 won't let you know where you are and you'll need to hold up until you return to your PC to post your most up to date pictures on Facebook, this camera highlights better "right out of the camera" picture quality than any ultrazoom I have utilized. The HX300 resembles a passage level DSLR and components polycarbonate body over metal amalgam outline development. Fit and complete are reliably fabulous and climate/dust/dampness seals give off an impression of being more than satisfactory. The camera includes a somewhat grainy level dark outside and looks utilitarian–this is not the camera for stylistas 

Ergonomics and Controls 
The HX300's control format is productively planned and all catches are sensibly set and come effectively to hand for right-gave shooters, yet they are all somewhat small–with the special case of the shade catch. The top deck includes a standard mode dial, a vast raised screen catch (with zoom switch encompass), the LCD/EVF catch, a center catch, and a custom catch. The back deck includes the compass switch, the survey catch, a menu catch, and the erase catch. Sony totally avoids the capacity catch and the turning run dial encompassing the compass switch that are verging on universal in camera's of this sort. The HX300 highlights the best handgrip I've seen to date. A substantial/profound hold with a thumb lay sits on the back of the camera for included soundness in taking care of. The HX300's one-touch video Record/Stop catch is somewhat littler than it ought to be, yet it is superbly situated so it can be utilized without requiring the shooter to turn away from the LCD/EVF when beginning or halting video. 

Menus and Modes 
Presently we go to the HX300's Achilles heel. This advanced camera highlights one of the slightest natural menu frameworks I have ever seen. Everything requires a few catch pushes to achieve. Luckily fundamental photography is conceivable without using the menu and I think that most clients will keep away from the menu as much as they for all intents and purposes can. Here's a brief depiction of the HX300's shooting modes: 
Auto: Just simple to use. No client info. 
Scene: Automatic scene program that in a split second thinks about what's before the lens with an on-board picture database and afterward coordinates that data with the subject's separation from the camera, white parity, contrast, dynamic range, lighting and shading (just before the picture is recorded) to upgrade all introduction parameters for the scene mode chose. No client info aside from blaze on/off. 
Program: Auto presentation with constrained client info (affectability, white equalization, introduction pay, streak, and so on.). 
Opening need: Users select the gap and the camera chooses a fitting screen speed. 
Screen need: Users select shade speed and the camera chooses a fitting opening. 
Manual: Users select all introduction parameters. 
Memory Recall Mode: Recalls camera enlisted client settings. 
iSweep Panorama Mode: Auto register programmed scene mode. 
3D Still Image Mode: Allows clients to shoot 3D pictures. 
Film: The HX300 records HD video at a most extreme determination of 1440x1080p @ 60ifps. 

Show/Viewfinder 
Like most presently accessible ultrazooms, the HX300 gives an EVF (electronic viewfinder) so shooters can utilize either the LCD screen or the EVF for confining/piece, picture survey, and menu access tasks. The HX300's LCD is vast and brilliant, making it simple to use in open air lighting, however glare and appearance in direct daylight are still an issue. Clients can simply change to the electronic viewfinder, yet I observed the EVF to be somewhat little and faint. Sony dispensed with the nearness sensor beside the EVF that permitted the camera to change from the LCD to the EVF when it was conveyed to the clients eye. Presently the switch is made through the LCD/EVF catch. The HX300 highlights an expansive brilliant 3.0-inch LCD screen with 921K determination. The wide-survey point TFT LCD screen is sharp, brilliant, tone precise, and liquid. The default data show gives all the data this present camera's intended interest group is liable to require. The LCD picks up (naturally expands splendor) in faint lighting and brilliance can likewise be changed in accordance with the inpidual shooter's inclinations. At long last, the HX300's LCD folds out, which is valuable when shooting large scale or high-edge (over the heads in the group) shots, however the LCD doesn't swivel.
