Reviews for Sony Compact Digital Cameras

"Sweep Panorama mode Superzoom functionality Speedy start-up Full HD video...Pricy compared to rivals Lack of RAW capture...Although the camera is built for the point-and-shoot crowd, the HX1 packs a 9.1MP sensor into its chassis – technology that’s not too dissimilar to the company’s prosumer Alpha range of DSLR cameras...With such a powerful sensor at its core, the HX1 can truly show off some features that are genuinely impressive...There’s a glut of superzoom..." read more »

"It seems that a 10.0 megapixel point-and-shoot just won't cut it anymore: in their pre-PMA camera announcements, Sony unveiled the Cyber-shot DSC-W230 and DSC-W290 models, both sporting 12.1 megapixel sensors...The Cyber-shot W290 will share the same size 3.0 inch LCD as the W230, but will feature a more versatile 5x Carl Zeiss 28-140mm zoom lens...At a slightly higher price point, the W290 packs a few more advanced features including 11 pre-programmed scene modes and slideshow playback with stereo sound..." read more »

"So cutting-edge was the technology, you'd have to pay through the nose for a device you could barely fit in a carry bag and photos you could barely print...Up close, the Cyber-shot W180 does not look like a cheap camera...Read more from the Gadget Girl Though the Cyber-shot W180 has a lot, it lacks plenty too...The Sony Cyber-shot W180 camera gives users plenty for its price, however, and should be a boon to for those who want simple snaps while saving on bulk..." read more »

"Advanced technology has always been the name of the game in Sony's high-end Cyber-shot W models, and today the latest entry-level W – the Sony Cyber-shot W220 – received a healthy dose of high-tech as well...According to Sony's launch announcement, the 12 megapixel W220 earns a host of features previously reserved for the advanced W150 and W170 models, including Intelligent Scene Recognition and Dynamic Range Optimization...As is often the case, detailed tech specs for the W220 are still a little vague at this point..." read more »

"The DSC-WX1 features a 10.2-megapixel "Exmor R" CMOS image sensor, G lens for fast speed, high resolution, and Fantastic low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain--2x better than traditional sensors of equivalent size and pixel count...The low light photos this WX1 takes are fantastic, although i have not used it extensively all photos taken have been good with very little noise...Video function is good Using the MPEG-4 (.MP4) format, Record up to 29 minutes (or up to 2 GB) per movie in 720p format, Camera mic is mono..." read more »

"Following in the footsteps of last year's H10 model, the compact, high-zoom Sony H20 adds more resolution, a 720p movie mode, and an array of intelligent capabilities that were lacking in the previous model...The H20 forgoes any optical viewfinder in favor of a 3.0" LCD display with 230,000 dot resolution...The Sony H20 also offers face detection capable of differentiating between children and adults, recognizing and prioritizing one specific individual's face whenever they're present in a scene, and detecting when your subject blinks during an exposure...All of these intelligent features were absent in the previous H10 model, and should make the H20 a much more approachable camera..." read more »
