I ordered this camera because of the Sony quality, the compactness of it and the reasonable price. Pro's: Very sharp pictures, large LCD screen, very compact, easy to use and fast start-up for first shot. Con's: The battery does not last long, (LCD power consumption?). After 20 pictures (with no flash), one of the four bars for the battery is gone, so a full charge may last no more than 100 pictures. This is a special battery, expensive and not widely available. I would suggest designing this camera using AAA batteries, instead of the propietary one Sony uses. After two weeks of use, I sadly had to return this camera. Keep the above in mind if you are considering this camera. ......
We are very pleased with this camera. I am glad that we purchased it. The only quirk I have, is getting blurry pictures. I am sure with more practice we will figure out how not to have blurry pictures. Other than that I really like the camera. The video feature is great!......
I have found this camera to be very useful and stylish. Its sleek and the picture quality is very sharp. It has all the standard features that you would expect from an advanced camera. Since I already have most of the electronics from Sony, so there was hardly any need to go thru the user manual. There were no compatibility issues. In a price of less than $200, I have received latest technology and stylish digital camera that has a big display screen. All in all, I have found it to exceed my expectations.......
I absolutely love this camera! I looked around to find a good review for weeks before buying it but I couldn't find more than 2 or 3 reviews. As soon as I opened the box I fell in love with this camera. It's definitely more red than hot pink (which it sort of looks like online). The pictures come out great and there are tons of special features, such as red eye reduction, smile detection, and tons of others that I haven't had the chance to try out yet. Even if the picture doesn't look great when you first take it, when you check it in review it's usually blur-free and the lighting is fantastic. I was scared to purchase this camera because my old Sony's lens stopped working after a year, so I bought the 2-year warranty on this just in case, but so far I haven't had any problems. It's definitely worth the money and I hope this review helps!......
This is a great camera for the price. The red color never hurts either.......
