Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F717

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F717 - Like New | Iconic Prosumer Digital Camera with Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar Lens

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F717 is one of the most iconic and celebrated prosumer digital cameras ever produced — a landmark in digital photography history that combined a large 5-megapixel CCD sensor with the legendary Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar lens in a distinctive and ergonomically brilliant rotating body design. The Vario-Sonnar 5x zoom lens delivers exceptional sharpness, outstanding contrast, and the natural, three-dimensional rendering quality that Carl Zeiss glass is universally renowned for. The unique rotating barrel design separates the lens and sensor unit from the grip and controls — allowing for flexible shooting angles that a conventional fixed-body camera simply cannot achieve. Night Shot infrared capability, a large 1.8" LCD, and a comprehensive manual control set make the DSC-F717 a genuinely capable and versatile imaging tool. In like-new condition, this is an exceptional example of one of Sony's most celebrated cameras. Serial number 1728358.
