{"product_id":"sony-cyber-shot-dsc-tx55","title":"Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX55","description":"\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eSony released the DSC-TX55 in September 2011 as the thinnest T-series camera ever made — 12.2mm at its slimmest point, 13mm overall, in a body that weighed 109g. The folded-path Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 5× zoom, BSI Exmor R sensor, 3.3-inch OLED touchscreen, and 10fps burst were all packed into something closer to a credit card than a camera. The black version was matte rather than glossy — the one finish on the T-series that didn't show fingerprints.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.375rem] font-bold\"\u003eNO FILTER: SHOT ON DSC-TX55\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003ecoming soon\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.375rem] font-bold\"\u003eTHE LOOKS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe black TX55 has a matte finish that absorbs light rather than reflecting it — different in feel from the glossy T77 and T300, and noticeably better for handling. The body is 93 × 54 × 13mm, 109g, with the entire rear given over to the 3.3-inch OLED touchscreen. The sliding lens cover is the only front detail. At 12.2mm at its thinnest it is, in Sony's words, closer to a pencil than a battery. Also available in silver, purple, and red.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.375rem] font-bold\"\u003eTHE SPECS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe 16.2-megapixel BSI Exmor R CMOS sensor and BIONZ processor deliver clean output at higher ISOs — the back-illuminated design Sony originally developed for camcorders. Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar folded-path 5× zoom covers 26–130mm with Optical SteadyShot. The 3.3-inch OLED touchscreen at 1,229k dots is significantly sharper than LCD alternatives of the era. Full 1080i\/60fps AVCHD video. 10fps burst. Seven Picture Effects including HDR Painting and Toy Camera. 3D Sweep Panorama. microSD\/SDHC + MS Micro. 93 × 54 × 13mm, 109g.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.375rem] font-bold\"\u003eDESIGN HIGHLIGHTS\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul class=\"[li_\u0026amp;]:mb-0 [li_\u0026amp;]:mt-1 [li_\u0026amp;]:gap-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ul]:pb-1 [\u0026amp;:not(:last-child)_ol]:pb-1 list-disc flex flex-col gap-1 pl-8 mb-3\"\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e12.2mm at its thinnest — the slimmest T-series camera Sony made:\u003c\/strong\u003e closer to a pencil than a battery in cross-section, with a folded Zeiss zoom and OLED screen inside.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003e3.3-inch OLED touchscreen at 1,229k dots:\u003c\/strong\u003e substantially sharper and more vivid than the LCD panels standard on competitors in 2011 — the display was a meaningful step up.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMatte black finish on a T-series body:\u003c\/strong\u003e the only T-series finish that didn't show fingerprints — making the camera look like a considered object rather than a glossy gadget.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"text-text-100 mt-3 -mb-1 text-[1.375rem] font-bold\"\u003eTHE VERDICT\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"font-claude-response-body break-words whitespace-normal\"\u003eThe TX55 is the T-series taken as far as it would go — 12.2mm, 109g, OLED screen, folded Zeiss glass, and a matte black finish that actually stays clean in a hand. The output is CMOS rather than CCD, which means it's technically cleaner but lacks the warm digicam character of the earlier T-series models. That's the only honest caveat. As a physical object the TX55 is one of the more remarkable compact cameras Sony ever made.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Sony","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57232395927927,"sku":null,"price":169.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0931\/2003\/7239\/files\/IMG_0081_result.jpg?v=1782639660","url":"https:\/\/bling-inc.com\/products\/sony-cyber-shot-dsc-tx55","provider":"Bling Inc.","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
