Digital Cameras : Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W80

This camera is a wonderful camera for snapshotting! Being my first Sony camera, I was a little worried that it might be missing a few features, especially at this price range. The menu's can be a little confusing at first to navigate, and the instructions that come with it really stink. Just give it time though, it's really easy to use once you play with it some.

My only complaint is that in low light situations if you leave all of the auto settings on, it tends to take very grainy, dark pictures (even with the flash). It's really a small complaint though, since there are plenty of settings on this camera for you to adjust. Even if you don't know a thing about ISO's and shutter speeds, this camera produces fantastic images just using the auto settings.

The battery life is also fantastic, I used it for 3 hours straight, and the battery meter didn't go down a single bar. I haven't had it for very long, so time will tell if it continues to perform so well in that regard. In closing, in this price range, if you're looking for a small camera that can take quick snapshots, this is the one! Hide Full Review

I brought this camara after getting a lot information from people and cites, and chose this one, 1 price, 2 size, 3 7.2mp, 4 brand and finally I didn't want to miss that special moment, now this cam is everywhere I go, my first choice was canon but the sd1000 is too small and don't have the anti blur technology, the canon sd700 doesn't have the view finder, very important if you want to take pictures without bother other people like in concerts or in dark stages like disneyland, and another thing about this cam is all metal frame, finally if you are looking to take professional shots you should consider to spend a lot of money over a $1000.00 plus all special lents and accessories. This camara works very well for me, I'm not going to miss any special moment even is the pix is not too perfect, hope this review help you to decide. Hide Full Review

I was shopping for a very good quality pocket camera for outdoor use

One of the best features is the veiwfinder window. In high light you can't see the display screen so this view window really helps you to see the shot in high light conditions.

The shutter delay on most compact digitals is terrible, this camera focuses and shoots very quickly.

this camera has several very useful program modes and they appear on the screen when you toggle from mode to mode.

I shoot with two professional high end SLR cameras but the size and wieght of the cameras are limiting, this camera is easy to carry and use and the photo quality is very comparable to the expensive pro cameras I use Hide Full Review
