Sony Cyber Shot - Amazing camera for a low price!

Date of Review:  Jun 19, 2008
The Bottom Line: Recommended to anyone from beginner to professional - easy to use, produces sharp pictures!
Review: I adore this camera! It's a wonderful camera for the price – I'm sure much fancier cameras take pictures in a faster sequence, but for a moderate to cheap price, this is an amazing camera.
It's only the second digital camera I've ever owned...

WAS a good camera

Date of Review:  Jul 5, 2008
The Bottom Line: The camera works well and is simple to use, however it is not very durable and isn't a very long-term camera
Review: My mother got this camera with points from Air Miles. We weren't expecting much from it, but we got a lot - While it worked, anyway.

The pros:

The camera takes fantastic pictures. The zoom and assorted settings are decent and the...

A Quality Entry line product

Date of Review:  Jul 20, 2007
The Bottom Line: Shop before you buy, but this a camera that does the job of a camera, at a very reasonable price.
Review: I got this camera as a Christmas gift last year, and although initially disappointed of not having received the higher end DSC Wxx Series camera, it turned out to be a great device, specially considering the retail price.

very blurry

Date of Review:  Aug 23, 2007
Review: This camera is very difficult to take crisp pictures with because it seems to lack any sort of stabilization feature. Plus when you press the button to take the photo, it won't actually snap the photo for 2-3 seconds, so it really causes frustration...

Not the best camera, but it gets the job done!

Date of Review:  Jan 24, 2008
The Bottom Line: If you are a beginner, you may enjoy this camera. Those who have had others will be frustrated with many of the features.
Review: I have several Sony cameras and this is my most recent. I have had this camera for around two years and if I could, I would upgrade. There are many features that I wish could be changed.

My favorite part of this camera is the durability. I...
