A steal at today's prices!
| I simply love this camera. I have been using for over 1 year now with no issues or problems. However, you must learn to use the functions properly for optimum photo quality. Auto setting are great. Many of my photos look like professional portraits. Everywhere I go people want to check it out. Wouldn't trade for another. And I paid a high price when it first came out. So at today's prices it is WELL WORTH the money! |

Great small camera--accessories add cost though
| I had a Nikon Coolpix which was small but too big to shove into my pocket so I bought the Sony. I love that it's small, had to get used to making sure my fingers were not within the lense view. Extra battery and memory sticks will run up the cost (but that goes for any digital camera). It's easy to use since I'm not much of one for reading the instruction books yet have been able to figure things out fairly easily. I don't do movies so can't comment on that but straight photos turn out really well (which surprises me since I've always been a really lousy photographer). I like that I can carry it with me all the time, which I do. I do wrap the whole camera in a small cloth envelope so the LCD doesn't get scratched up. And I added a neck lanyard usually used for a computer flash key so I can wear the camera around my neck or wrap the strap around my hands just in case it slips out of my fingers--camera is so lightweight. The only complaint I have is that the shutter door, which slides effortlessly to turn on the camera, slides effortlessly even when you don't want it to. I've used up the battery many times while the camera was sitting in my pocket (so I always carry an extra battery with me). And extra plus is loading the pics onto the computer is a breeze (no extra software needed, just the cable that comes with the camera). There is still a slight delay between depressing the button to take a picture and when the camera actually takes the picture but it's not as bad as the Nikon. I assume the newer versions of this camera have only gotten better. Well worth the money (I just wish I could lock the shutter cover). |
