Tru Black is a technology developed by Sony which allows a better visualization of the screen, even when there is too much light. The feature can also serve as a compass as it shows the user's position on the camera screen. Some Cyber-Shot models such as the DSC-HX20V, DSC-HX90V, DSC-HX200V and the DSC-HX400V have a built-in GPS so the user can have their photos automatically geotagged as they are being taken. The cameras have been available since 2010.
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.
Some Cyber-shot models can take 3D stills by shooting two images using two different focus settings. In the past, the W and T-series use Sony N-type batteries While most H-series use G-type batteries.
