    Good little point and shoot camera. I returned the camera, not because it didn't produce good images but I wanted something with interchangeable lenses.

    great point and shoot camera with long zoom

    I bought this instead of taking a big DSLR on a holiday trip, based on previous Sony experience. Not perfect, but what is? The long zoom will let me get architectural details and the widest setting will be good for interiors and group shots. The sole drawback is that it doesn't have a hot shoe for a flash, but a slave flash trigger will work for that.

    Easy to travel with and fits well in a shirt, coat or jacket pocket. Viewfinder a blessing on sunny days and in high intensity light situations. Clear, accurate images at most ISO speeds. Plenty of options for a more advanced shooter without spending almost a 100% over the purchase price of this camera on a more sophisticated camera. Better images and easier to hold that Canon 720HS.

    In today's world most people do not need a camera unless it's a DSLR or a use for professionals . I bought this camera for concerts and outdoor site seeing ... The zoom is awesome on this one, and the camera is extremely light weight . I also went to Japan with this camera and didn't take it every bc the phone was sufficient, but used it many times on trips such as Fiji. Enjoy.

    Third Cyber-shot camera!

    This is my third Cyber-shot camera over 15 years. They take excellent pictures and get better all the time. This newest one is more compact and charges with a power cord versus a battery charging device. It is both easy to use and offers very sophisticated options (I haven't used them all.) Great all around camera.

    Good Pocket Camera - Great Features

    Ourchased this camera to replace on that was destroyed. I particularly like the feature of a view finder as an alternative to the screen. My old camera did not have this and sometimes was hard to use in brightly lit conditions. This camera is also a bit more compact than my previous one but still packs pretty much all the same features. All-in-all a great deal.

    One of the few small cameras with a viewfinder

    The viewfinder worked well especially when the screen was hard to see in bright light. Some difficulty when trying to sync the camera to a MAC computer.

    I like everything about this camera. Smaller size for ease of carrying around was my prime consideration. Of course, picture quality was of great importance. I am very satisfied on that count also. The tilt able LCD screen has already proven to be a useful feature. This Sony camera exceeds all my expectations for a compact camera.

    An excellent compact telephoto camera.

    I was looking for a small camera with a good telephoto lens. This one can fit in a shirt pocket, yet can capture distant objects better than my SLR with its 200mm lens. It is easy to use, with a good choice of shooting modes, and produces very good quality pictures--at least for me, a very amateur photographer. I feel I can leave my SLR at home when I travel, should I choose.

    Good camera - with a view finder

    I enjoy Sony cameras. My last point and shoot was great but I missed a view finder. I hear and read over and over that people miss a view finder and finally a camera company listened. This camera is a little bigger than my old Sony but it still fits in a pocket. It has a powerful zoom. It takes wonderful pictures. It's everything you could want in a Point and Shoot camera.

    Viewfinder was key for this purchase.

    I'm quite satisfied with this camera. It's nice and compact and the 30x zoom is great. The image quality is excellent so far. The downside is the viewfinder. It is awkward to use. Also, I'm concerned about its longevity. The constant pulling of the viewfinder into position may be problematic. Last...No Instruction Manual! I still don't have a clear understanding of all the shooting modes.

    This camera takes great pictures and awesome video. Very easy to use and navigate through all the functions. I would recommend buying a screen cover because it scratches very easily. I also recommend a decent tripod for full zoom pictures because it's hard to hold the camera still enough to get all your pictures to come out without some blurr.

    “A pocket full of miracles !”

    Replaced Canon Rebel with a miniaturized counterpart, literally, a “pocket full of miracles.” Compact, versatile and dependable, up close or telephoto, eye focus available when sun washes out the screen, beautiful colors, easy to use, sharp lens, indeed, fulfilled quest for lightweight substitute for its much heavier counterpart at a reasonable cost.

    I love this camera. I am a big canon user, and I'll admit I was nervous to try anything else. But this camera takes great pictures, and does a super job in low light!! I'll be carrying this with me everywhere! Easy to navigate and fun to try different things! Glad I purchased, the weight is worth the end result

    Great camera with one flaw...

    So the camera takes terrific pictures. They're clear and there's multiple settings to fit whatever environment you're taking pictures in. The one flaw is the flash. Since it's a pop up flash you have to press this tiny button which in dark situations can be extremely frustrating. Other than that it's a great camera.

    DSC HX 80 - It's a Sony

    Pricey but the quality is pretty good. Exactly what I expected from a Sony. It's pretty heavy but I don't have a problem with it. The zoom, lens quality and size are perfect for those who love photography, but are not crazy enough to get the large stalker cameras. It's a well balanced product.
