Very nice portable camera
| The main selling point for this camera is the fact that it's very small and portable. It's about the size of a cigarette box. I also like the fact that there is no wait-time for this camera as far as going from the on button to taking pictures -- it doesn't take as long as some cameras I've seen. It also doesn't take long from taking a picture and viewing it. There is virtually no wait time. Also, I'm very happy with the picture quality. It has a very nice natural look to them, instead of some cameras that are over-saturated with unnatural colors. Another great feature I like about this camera is the battery life. You can pretty much take lots of pictures (over 400 according to Sony) with one battery charge. Overrall, I'd recommend this camera for anyone who wants a good quality camera that is light and easy to carry around, with a great battery life. |

Good investment, more research would've helped...
| The Sony Cybershot DSCW30 digital camera is not made with a metal body! A metal framed slim-bodied camera was what I really desired. Instead, I received a slim-bodied metallic looking camera. If anyone is looking to purchase a metal framed camera and is conflicted about who's right on this feature of Sony's Cybershot, visit any electronics retailer and view the Cybershot DSCW30 for yourself. I was lucky enough to have a Sony company store near my home where I was able to talk to the manufacturer's people directly. They confirmed that while the camera appears to be metal, it is really all plastic. I too have experienced problems when focusing on images I've zoomed in on via the LCD on the camera, but these focus issues are not reflected in the image once captured. I took this camera to Europe and it was a real gem. I highly suggest purchasing a memory stick, as I used a 2GB Memory stick duo (the manufacturer's website instructs users to only use the "duo" and not the standard sized stick for all who are wondering about compatibility) and the camera captured approximately 450 images and says it could get about another 400 in 6MP fine format. To boot, the battery is awesome and never required charging for all those shots and still shows more than half power remaining. A good camera deal, though I might have chosen the larger LCD of the DSCW50 for an additional 40 dollars. |

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE IT !!
| I've had this camera since April 2006 and have taken it on many trips. I have even video'd my husband's rock band in a dark, smokey bar. The videos came out crystal clear and had amazing sound quality as well. The metal case is solid and beautifully crafted. Every time I show off my photos, people want to know what kind of camera I use. I would definitely recommend this camera for the recreational user. I do however agree with the other comments I have read here expressing disappointment with the battery and USB covers. They could be more sturdy. |
