The Sony Cybershot is my 6th digital camera and for the price it offers quite a lot of quality features in a small package.
Pros: *Palm size and lightweight, making it very portable.
*A big, clear LCD screen, viewable even in sunlight/
*Quality optical zoom lens (3x) good enough for face shots
across a large room.
*A Lithium Ion battery, very good as it provides full
power until completly drained, and no memory effect.
*Fast shutter speeds, so you don't miss out on shots.
*Simple cable connections to your TV for display, in both
NTSC (largely USA) or PAL format.
*Tripod mountable, useful when you want the camera to act
as a camcorder, or when filming long events.
Cons: *The sleek brushed metal case of the camera makes it a
little slippery, so be sure to use the wrist strap!
*The internal 56MB memory is really only good for 15-25
quality pictures or a few (3-5) minutes of video. Of
course if you shoot at a lower pixel setting you can
more than triple your storage space, but if you can get
a 2GB memory card--less than $25 at most stores, you can
easily shoot over 75 minutes of video or store close to
2000 stills!
This is quite a handy little camera, easy enough for a beginner to use with its on screen directions and intuitive buttons and offering good performance in a small package to satisfy most casual users.

| I brought this camera 2.5 years ago. It's still in great shape and the quality of my photos are great. I'm not a fancy, advanced user. I just needed a camera that I could carry with me on trips or special occasions to caught moments. The battery life is still wonderful. I use it several times before I have to recharge my battery, which doesn't take long. My only complaint about this camera is that when it takes a picture, it seems to take awhile for the shot. |

| I have had this camera for over a year now. It has been very easy to use with great pictures and video. It is simple to transfer the pictures/video to my laptop and is easily compatible with basic editing software. |

| This was a pretty good buy. I got it for my wife. The only negative is that the flash always does a burst that disorients people, babies and animals. So you usually have to take multiples to get people to look normal. Excelent picture quality and ease of use. |

| My husband and I had decided to get this camera because we needed something smaller compared to our old digital that can actually hold a floppy disk. This camera is compact and fits right into your pocket. I like that the dial on the back is very user friendly, when you move it to a new setting the description pops up on the screen. However I do not like the shutter delay, it's awful. It sets off like 3 flashes which blinds whoever you are takeing a picture of and they blink. Which is horrible for babies and kids. The red eye reduction was on and still red eyes were in several pictures. Also I just recently went to a Nickelback concert and this camera let me down horribly. I wasn't that far from the stage but still needed to zoom in all the way and no matter what setting I tried my pictures were blurry and very grainy. Out of about 80 pics probably 6 were good and thats because the performers were standing really still. I cannot tell you how many times I missed my kids perfect smiles because of the delay. I just ordered a canon and I hope that it doesn't let me down. |
