'''Cyber-shot''' is [[Sony]]'s line of [[point-and-shoot camera|point-and-shoot]] [[digital camera]]s introduced in 1996. Cyber-shot model names use a DSC prefix, which is an initialism for "Digital Still Camera". Many Cyber-shot models feature [[Carl Zeiss AG|Carl Zeiss]] trademarked lenses, while others use Sony, or Sony G lenses.

All Cyber-shot cameras accept Sony's proprietary [[Memory Stick]] or [[Memory Stick#Memory PRO Duo|Memory Stick PRO Duo]] flash memory, except the DSC-MD1 which only accept [[MiniDisc]]. Select models have also supported [[CompactFlash]]. Current Cyber-shot cameras support Memory Stick PRO Duo, [[Secure Digital|SD]], [[SDHC]], and [[SDXC]]. From 2006 to 2009, [[Sony Mobile Communications|Sony Ericsson]] used the Cyber-shot brand in a [[List of Sony Ericsson products#C series: Cyber-shot (2008, 2009)|line of mobile phones]].

==Features==

===3D===

Some Cyber-shot models can take 3D stills by shooting two images using two different focus settings. The technology uses one lens only for the process, and users can later see the images on a [[3D TV]] or on a regular 2D screen. The cameras have been available since 2010.<ref>{{cite web| url=http://www.techhive.com/article/200591/sony_3d_cybershots.html| title=Sony Adds 3D Shooting to New Cyber-shot Cameras| access-date=July 30, 2013| archive-date=March 9, 2021| archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210309150200/https://www.techhive.com/article/200591/sony_3d_cybershots.html| url-status=dead}}</ref>
