For over 50 years, Sony has been developing
world-class products and services that add excitement and creativity to your life. Sony is committed
to applying that same ongoing innovation to build a sustainable future.
Engineered
to pioneer
Thinner, lighter VAIO® notebooks require less energy and reduce consumption and depletion of
materials. The majority of VAIO computer models are ENERGY STAR® 4.0 compliant and have
received either EPEAT Gold or Silver rankings. This means they use less power, affecting energy
bills, and reduced greenhouse gas emissions.
More picture quality, less energy wasted
Sony® BRAVIA® TVs and LCDs are developed with the environment in mind. This includes reduced costs
throughout the product lifecycle -- from buying to maintaining to running your Sony TVs and LCD
displays. Most of the BRAVIA® HDTVs are designed to exceed ENERGY STAR® 3.0 Specifications, saving
you money on energy costs while still delivering stunning images. The BRAVIA® VE5 LCD HDTV 52"
version, for example, exceeds ENERGY STAR® 3.0 Specifications by 65.5%*. The ECO-Panel, on a
selection of our newest models reduces power consumption while in use, and the new Eco-Switch on
selected models enables zero power consumption when the display is off.
Sony BRAVIA® HDTVs also feature innovative technology that self adjusts backlight to save power.
Light sensors automatically adjust the brightness of the screen to maximize viewing quality and
minimize energy usage. And on the BRAVIA® KDL-VE5, a Presence Detector sets the television into
standby mode when no motion is detected within a preset amount of time. All to support the
conservation of valuable resources and limit green house gas emissions.
Blu-ray
Disc™ Players go green
In 2008, the unit features 21 percent less power consumption in playback mode and 43 percent reduced
power consumption in stand-by mode.
More than just talking the talk
Sony Ericsson is proud to deliver the most efficient chargers from a standby power point of view,
with all new models after 2005 meeting the requirements for ENERGY STAR®. Sony Ericsson also makes
continuous efforts to reduce energy consumption from all activities. At the Sony Ericsson
manufacturing site, the electricity per manufactured unit was significantly reduced by 24% in 2007
compared to 2005. The goal is to reduce the carbon footprint from Sony Ericsson's own activities by
15% per produced unit by 2009 and 20% by 2011 based on the 2007 figures.
A
Sony innovation, 10 years in the making
Every once in a while, a new technology emerges that changes everything. At just 3mm thin, Sony has
developed an unbelievably thin TV - while advancing image quality to levels that no other TV can
match. This technology is called OLED.
Organic Light Emitting Diode, or OLED, is a technology that uses carbon-based organic material in a
process that converts electric energy into light. This light is used to illuminate the screen and
produce the most astounding results ever seen on a television. OLED emits light and does not require
a backlight-realizing a new TV form of approximately 3mm at its thinnest point. And when these
elements are in their "off" state, they consume no power. The result? OLED TVs use less energy than
LCDs. The OLED display consumes less electricity compared to conventional displays because OLED's
light-emitting structure does not require a separate light source and can be powered using very low
voltages.
Sony Innovative Materials Saves
Participation
in EPEAT™ Program
As a committed participant in the Electronic Product Environmental Assessment Tool (EPEAT™ )
program, various VAIO® notebooks have been registered for their environmentally conscious design and
the overall eco-conscious efforts of Sony. EPEAT is a tool designed to help you compare and select
products based on their environmental attributes. The majority of VAIO notebooks and desktops are
either registered as Gold or Silver.
Meeting the RoHS Directive
All Sony VAIO computers have PVC-free exterior product casings and packaging. They are also EU
Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive compliant. The RoHS directive restricts the
amount of certain materials such as lead and mercury, used in electronic products. By limiting the
use of hazardous substances, RoHS aims not only to help prevent harmful materials from leaching into
our ecosystems but also helps minimize potential exposure to these substances and promotes easier
recycling at the end of a product's lifecycle.
Sony adopted the use of recycled and reused materials in
several models of our LCDs, and all are EU Restriction of Hazardous Substances (RoHS) Directive
compliant, helping prevent harmful materials, such as lead, from leaching into our ecosystem when
improperly disposed while also helping increase recycling and reduce potential chemical exposure
from the manufacturing process. And further keeping green in mind, suppliers for products are
certified as green partners based on Sony's stringent standard for chemical substances used in
products.
All Sony® Blu-ray Disc™ Player parts, and all other Sony products, are lead and cadmium-free, based
on EU RoHS directive restrictions, and major plastic parts of the Blu-ray Disc Player are free of
brominated flame retardants.
Sony Ericsson is the first company to remove brominated flame
retardants from its
mobile
phones and the first to manufacture a full range of products, including accessories, which are also
brominated flame retardant free.
They were also the first in ensuring that every device in their range was fully compliant with the
EU Directive on the restriction of hazardous substances (RoHS). Sony Ericsson phones are PVC free,
and we are currently working to phase out antimony, beryllium and phthalates from our products.
Sony Packaging Is More Than Just Style
Cutting Down on Package Size
Sony is looking at minimizing its impact of its computers on our environment, by reducing the size
of our packaging. VAIO® products utilize 30-95 percent post-consumer recycled content (actual
percentage depends on manufacturing). They also use non-VOC vegetable oil-based ink in all Japanese
made units. On the inside of the box, all Sony-created documentation uses 85% post-consumer recycled
content.
Creating Manuals from Recycled Materials
On the BRAVIA® Series, the product information and packaging, including instruction manuals,
Quick Set-Up Guides and box packaging are made from recyclable materials. Inside the box, the
styrofoam packing cushions are made from reprocessed EPS that's been taken from original parts
packaging, shredded, compacted and recycled into Television packaging cushions. This process
resulted in saving 28 metric tons of polystyred plastic from landfills.
Cutting
Down on Emissions from Shipping
Compared to Sony’s previous BDP-S300 Blu-ray Disc™ model, the new BDP-S350 model reduced the overall
unit size by 55 percent, reduced packing material by 52 percent and reduced the unit’s total weight
by 38 percent. The compact size of the finished package allows Sony to reduce the C02 emissions
related to shipping by approximately 43 percent.
Reduce unnecessary power use with a TV
that switches to standby mode when no motion is detected.
Use less power than traditional
technologies with the exclusive Sony® HCFL backlight.
Turn off the power completely with a
flip of the switch and eliminate standby energy consumption.
With a screen that’s as thin as three credit cards, Sony’s XEL-1 changes television. It also breaks
new ground with a 1 million to 1 contrast ratio, outstanding brightness, accurate color
reproduction, and an exceptionally rapid response time. Coming Soon!
Enjoy the latest in HDTV performance with the BRAVIA Z-Series and W-Series televisions, featuring
Motionflow™ 240Hz technology. Incorporating advanced power saving features such as Light Sensor®
technology and Dynamic Backlight Control, these HDTVs exceed Energy Star® 3.0 guidelines for energy
efficiency by over 15% in Home mode.
BRAVIA S-Series HDTVs put Full HD 1080p and stunning contrast in reach, offering advanced image
processing features and a variety of HD input options at a great value. Energy Star 3.0 qualified.

MEGAPIXELS AND PHOTO PRINT SIZE
The
photo print quality of your images depends on the camera's "megapixel
rating." The higher number of pixels your camera has, the higher the resolution
(or sharpness) of your images---and the larger your prints can be without
quality loss.
Digital Camera Flash Storage
Capacities
* Average file size
using cameras highest resolution JPEG mode. Actual number of
photos, songs, and minutes will vary depending on camera/device model,
format resolution and compression, usable capacity, and bundled software.
Actual usable memory capacity may vary. 1MB equals 1 million bytes; 1GB
equals 1 billion bytes.
NUMBER OF IMAGES STORED ON A DIGITAL CARD The number of
pictures you can take varies depending on your camera model and complexity
of the scene being photographed. To calculate how many pictures your card
can hold, divide the capacity of your card by the average file size of your
images. For example, if you have a 256MB card, and use a camera that has an
average file size of 1.2MB, then 256 divided by 1.2 gives you approximately
213 pictures. As you change modes on your camera, the number of images will
increase if you shoot in a lower resolution mode, and decrease if you shoot
in a higher resolution mode.
