GPS Feature
Tag your location to all that you've captured
Map your memories with the advanced GPS feature that's built into the Cyber-shot DSC-HX9V. Great for use on holiday, the system uses an integrated GPS receiver and compass to record the location and direction of images and video clips as they're taken.

Background Defocus
Make what's important stand out
Bring out the subjects of your photos by adding natural-looking, blurred backgrounds to your images. Usually only seen on professionally taken shots on DSLR cameras, this effect can now be achieved with Background Defocus. Selecting from three levels of intensity, this feature applies a blur on the rest of the background image, placing greater emphasis on the focused subject.
