| Shoot up to 3 frames per second at full resolution (2,560 x 1,920 pixels) in High Speed mode, as opposed to 2 fps with the DiMAGE 7i. The high-volume 64MB buffer memory has twice the capacity of the DiMAGE 7i, allowing capture of as many as 5 RAW, 3 TIFF, or 10 JPEG (Fine mode) images in one sequence. |

| * Actual number of images may vary depending upon subjects and shooting conditions. |
 |
| Alternatively, use the UHS (Ultra High Speed) mode to shift into high gear and capture images at a rate of approximately 7 fps in SXGA resolution (1,280 x 960 pixels). The DiMAGE 7Hi employs a progressive SXGA scan method to increase your shooting speed. |
|
 |
 |
| Shutter speed can be accelerated to 1/4,000 second in P or A mode, and a short shutter release time lag helps you shoot with utmost precision. It can also be extended to 15 seconds to create high-quality time exposures (up to 30 seconds) with reduced noise. When capturing long exposures, you can use ISO100 in P mode, or choose from Auto, ISO100, or ISO200 in A, S and M modes. |

The DiMAGE 7Hi offers rapid, responsive autofocusing through the inclusion of a high-speed LSI image processing chip and other innovations. A 3-point autofocus system with center cross hair ensures a high degree of accuracy, and the CCD's automatic gain adjustment enables you to focus in dim lighting without a flash. |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
 |
The wide-area autofocus is composed of three focusing blocks and a center cross hair, and responds superbly to varying levels of contrast. You can switch from the wide focus area to spot focusing to best suit your composition.

 |
For added flexibility, DMF lets you make manual adjustments when autofocus is locked. You simply turn the focusing ring with the shutter button half-pressed to get the focusing effect you're looking for. This feature is especially useful during macro photography, for example, when you want to make sure that a specific part of your subject stays in focus. |

| Moving the cross-hair fixes your focus point. |
With FFP, you can move the cross hair focus point to any position within the frame, to keep an off-center subject in focus or to focus on one subject within a group. Like Direct Manual Focus, FFP is highly effective in macro imaging situations. |

The high-performance built-in flash has two metering modes to choose from, to match the situation you're in: ADI (Advanced Distance Integration) flash metering or pre-flash TTL metering. Flash synchronization is performed with shutter speeds as fast as 1/2,000 second. Selectable flash modes include manual fill-flash, red-eye reduction, rear flash sync, and wireless/remote flash control.

The DiMAGE 7Hi comes equipped with a flash sync terminal, and can be reliably connected to studio flash systems for commercial photography and other professional applications. |
