Sony - Cyber-shot 8.1MP Digital Camera - Silver

I bought this camera 5 days ago. So far its great!!!! It's shutter speed is great I have gotten some cool pictures. The battery last really long when fully charged i got about 125 pictures and a while of fooling around with the doodling / bordering, and figuring out what was where before i hade to charge the battery. I used to have a Hp and i could only take about 30 picture before recharging them again. The images are clear, and bright. I was kind of scared to buy a touch screen but i bought the two year warranty. Overall this camera is great! i wish i would had had one like this a while back i missed out on alot of good pictures, with my old camera. I say buy it! if the price scares you the quality of what you bought will change your mind!

This was my first digital camera and it was a great choice. The camera is very user friendly and is very easy to use. It takea all of 5 minutes to learn everything about the camera. The zoom isn't super awsome but it works well. I didn't expect to get really close up shots from 100 yards away. The quality of the pictures are amazing and you won't be dissapointed. Any Sony camera is a good camera but the Sony Cybershot series is amazing. You get great quality with out loosing an arm and a leg. If you are looking for an easy to use camera with awsome quality, then this Sony Cybershot is for you!

I bought the camera so I could use it for just taking pictures of vacations or just items that I see are interesting. I am returning this camera today. Well, at first I took WONDERFUL pictures on the camera. I was very pleased with my purchase until I decided to put the images on my computer. When I did that the pictures were pixelated and blurry and not very good at all. From there I decided to call Sony's technical support number. When I called I finally got the pictures not so blurry and pixelated. After all that I decided, this actually was a great purchase. And then, I decdied to take some movies with my camera. It was the worst quality, a fuzzy sound in the backround, and very, very pixelated movies. After all this trouble that I had with camera I am going to return this and get a better one. Sony has put themselves out of my pictures for getting a new camera from them. I had an older Cybershot and I loved it. This was very, very disappointin one picture that I am uploading is with the firework scene shot. It's the one thing that I actually love about this camera. The other one is a picture I took at night with flash, another way to only get a nice picture.

This is such a good camera..Sony is very trustworthy and the quality is really good. The pictures upload onto a computer very easily. Haven't used the HD wire on a tv though. Overall great camera- worth the money. The settings are fun to play with. I still can't figure out the fire work one yet though.

I love this camera! It was a great buy. The touch screen is awesome and it is easy to get to what program you want fast. The pictures are just amazing, especially up close flowers. I would defenitly get this camera for a friend or a family member.

i actually like this camera a lot...it has a lot cool little features but i find i don't use them as much as i thought i would...the smile and the camera snaps a picture is kind of hit and miss...i love the screen size and once you get used to the touch screen i have found it pretty easy to navigate to the areas i want to go to with out hastle...the macro is just awesome on this camera...i have taken many super close shots of some flowers and the image quality is amazing...the battery life is about average...bummer that it won't charge when hooked up to a pc though(you have to buy a different pc adapter for that) the video quality is pretty decent...looks nice on my 52"...i like the size to much easier to carry around with out it causing discomfort...

I got this camera two years ago for my birthday and I absolutely love it! It is so slender that every time I take it out to use, someone will comment on how thin it is! All of my friends are jealous! The large screen allows you to view the pictures very well and you can zoom in and out easily to see details of the picture. I also like that it comes with a rechargeable battery and charger so there is no need to have to replace batteries! It also comes with a connector to upload pictures onto your computer! I also have used it to video! It fits easily into pockets, purses, and wristlets! It is so compact and lightweight that it's ideal to travel with! The perfect camera for savoring the memories at parties, on vacations, evenings with friends, etc.!

All in all I would recommend this camera. I definitely think that some of the built in editing features are nice for people who might not be familiar with enhancing photographs or for those without access to photo editing software. The touch screen is nice at times and annoying at others. It becomes difficult to try and hold the camera steady while also touching the screen to focus. With as many options as the camera offers it can sometimes be overwhelming to navigate through the menus. The only redeeming quality is the help bar at the top that explains what each feature does . I have gotten nothing back but crystal clear images and I am very happy with this purchase. I think that maybe it should come with a stylus though...
