A low-lighting solution

Sony claims to have solved a problem we all grapple with: getting good photos in low light without resorting to an ambience-killing flash. Its two new Cyber-shots,DSC-TX1 and DSC-WX1,deliver better light sensitivity thanks to Sonys Exmor R back-illuminated sensor,which debuted on the Cyber-shot DSC-HX1. Further boosting their low-light chops,the TX1 and WX1 both incorporate the hand-held twilight and anti-motion blur multi-shot modes that were also introduced in the bulkier DSC-HX1.
