pictures vivid and sharp. but still excellent in taking photos. What a camera. short battery life I thought.
Takes pictures. Maybe I'm seeing something incorrectly but I bought this new in April, '08 for $264.15 and now it says over $500.can't be right.anyway.Good camera.
It must take GREAT shots in low lighting. My last digital camera had a 1.8" LCD and it was painfully small. I have four criteria when it comes to a compact digital camera.1. It is literally on and ready to shoot within milliseconds of hitting the power button. 4. My last digital camera had 12X with digital zoom, and it was disappointing to find that even though I was buying a higher end subcompact camera, the zoom was a bit on the skimpy side. There's also NO delay between shots, which has been the bane of all the digital cameras I've ever owned. 3.
I am clueless on how to set anything manually. I bought this camera because Consumer Reports rated it #1 for subcompact digital cameras. I don't know how many crappy photos I've taken indoors at parties, museums, and more. It must have several scene modes. This Sony Cybershot is AWESOME. Not only did I NOT have to use a tripod to get a clear shot, but the photos came out rich in color and detail, especially considering this is not a DSLR. I know we all have, even with those cameras that have 'indoor' modes but require a tripod to take a clear picture. It was also only $299 here on Amazon.com (the price listed today is over $400).
It must have a large LCD. No more wondering if I've taken a good photo or not.Overall, I'm extremely impressed with the Sony Cybershot. This camera offers a nice selection of scene modes, my favorite so far being the ISO+ for low light, indoor settings. I am addicted to these modes as they often save me from some very bad shots. They are clear and not at all blurry.
The only reason I'm not giving it 5 stars is because it only has 3X optical zoom, up to 6X with digital. The Sony Cybershot has a vividly clear LCD that is large and bright, perfect for spotting bad shots on the spot. Nevertheless, I won't be using my old digital camera even with its 12X zoom because the Sony blows it out of the water in terms of picture quality, compactness, and speed. I often couldn't tell that shots were out of focus until I imported them to my desktop. It must have a fast response time, both when I turn it on and in between shots.
But the landscape, portrait, and other modes have all proved equally adept at clear, brilliant pictures. Check out the photos I uploaded from a visit to a local aquarium in the Jelly Fish exhibit (where it's as dark as night in there). The ability to go from shot to shot without worrying about missing a great action photo or having to twiddle my thumbs while it writes to the compact flash or smart disk is a god send.2. Well, this baby takes absolutely stunning low light photos using ISO or ISO+ mode.
I've had it for 2 years and i still love it. I love this camera. The screen is big and clear.
Highly recommend it. This is a great camera for the amateur, its small and has excellent features, nice big screen.
