Luv my new camera!

It takes great pictures and is the perfect size to carry in my purse. The touch screen gets dirty easily but it is easy to function. The screen is a good size. Easy to share your pics.

I love this camera!

I bought this camera with the explicit intent of using as a 'pocket' camera - keeping it with me at all times so I could take pictures when I wanted, so I was looking for a fairly automated camera. The auto function is great and the camera sets itself up beautifully to automatically take the perfect picture, yet is easy to set up for yourself. I really like the large touch screen. The only con to this camera so far is that the red eye flash and the regular flash really are blinding as other reviewers have mentioned. Often get odd expressions on people's faces if the red eye flash goes off. I tend to keep this function off and fix the image later.

Sony Camera's sucks.

I have had this sony camera for a year now and I was very dissapointed witht the quality. Picture mostly have an orange glow. Forget about the steady shot it sucks. If you are shaking one bit the picture is not clear. That also goes for the person in the shot if it is moving than you can forget it. If you want my advice buy a cannon. They have better reputation and quality.

Save your money

This is our third Cybershot to own in the past 5 years. We have loved them in the past and were impressed with all the features. The zoom is horrible on this camera. Pictures come out grainy when using the zoom. Outside the pictures are great, but life happens in both. We returned it after one week and are still searching for a good camera in this price range. We own a Digital SLR (Pentax) and love taking pictures. My husband is into messing with all the settings. Our previous cybershot took better pictures at a fraction of the cost. No matter what setting we used, the pictures were dark and grainy inside with the zoom. We had to get right up on the subject to get a clear picture. We expected more the price and were dissapointed. Lesson learned: more expensive and higher resolution (and zoom) does not equal a better camera!

Great super-compact point and shoot camera

Takes great pictures for a little compact camera. It even takes good short videos although you have to press a few menu items on the screen to get to that feature. The screen does get the fingerprints but I only really notice them when the camera is off. It's not an issue when reviewing pic's on the screen. You won't be dissappointed.

Editorial Review :

Preserve the moment in style with the ultra-slim and colorful DSC-T77/G Cyber-shot digital camera. Measuring just over half an inch thin, this 10.1-megapixel camera features a 3.0" widescreen LCD that spans almost the entire backside of the camera. You can also compose and review shots, navigate menus and optimize focus using the touch-screen display. Equipped with optical SteadyShot image stabilization, the T77 automatically compensates for camera shake without sacrificing image quality. You'll also enjoy other photo-enhancing features such as Face Detection and Smile Shutter technologies and the anti-blink function.

Editorial Review :

Get is all from one powerful point and shoot. The DSC-W130 Cyber-shot digital camera delivers Smile Shutter technology for automatically capturing smiles as they happen and lets you share them beautifully in HD. You can expect stunning detail, thanks to 8.1 megapixel resolution and a Carl Zeiss 5x optical zoom lens. Plus, Sony's Face Detection technology controls focus, exposure, and color on up to eight individual faces, resulting in more accurate, natural skin tones. Whether displayed on the 2.5" LCD screen or your HDTV, the DSC-W130 conveys your vision with precision and style. Also available in silver and black.

Love this camera

I bought the DSCW130 to replace an older model Cybershot which suddenly stopped working. So far I love it. It's very small, but once I got used to the size, I found it very easy to use. The photos are crystal clear and there's practically no shutter release delay. Highly recommend!

battery is very bad

this is my 2nd sony 130 in a month...the battery depletes power in 3-4 days even without use.....don't trust if going on an excursion w/o backup....returning again,.....great pictures/features but no power capability on a trip....going back to my old casio exilim

Not that great...

I bought this camera to replace my old Sony DSC-P93. I was very happy with that one, my only complaint was that it was too slow so my 2-year old son always looked blurry because he would move before the camera was done taking the shot. This camera was slightly faster, but still not as fast as some others I have seen (Canon seems to make especially fast cameras). But the quality of the pictures was very good, so I probably would have ended up keeping this camera. But there was one huge drawback which made me end up returning it: the camera does not offer a date stamp on the photos! That is an absolute necessity for me, so I couldn't keep the camera. I wish someone had mentioned that in one of the reviews I read before purchasing it!!!

Nice camera, good price

This is a nice camera with easy to use features. One caution is that the kit does not include the memory stck and without it the camera's picture numbers are very limited. Most people will also want some type of carrying case because of the smallness of the unit. This is also an additional expenditure. The bottom line is that when comparing prices, check for needed accessories

Great camera

This is a great Sony product. It is very easy to use, light weight and takes super pictures even of my Granddogs, no red eye! The battery re-charge station is a BIG improvement over older models with cords.

The Sony DSC-T300 offers excellent performance and an elegant, sophisticated design. It includes Face Detection technology to optimize focus, exposure and color for up to eight faces. The compact body houses 10.1-Megapixel resolution and a beautiful, wide 3.5" touch-screen LCD for easy operation.

With high sensitivity of ISO 3200, you can shoot effectively in low light without flash to preserve the mood, while the Sony Clear RAW Noise Reduction system helps suppress the color noise that can degrade low-light shots.

Very Pleased with Sony Cybershot

I am absolutely thrilled with this camera. I am still learning how to use it with all its options. It will take me a while to get totally familiar with how to best use this but I am so looking forward to learning.

Rating :

Good value, takes getting used to

This camera is worth the cost, but you have a steep learning curve. If you're willing to learn how to deal with the arcane menu system, you'll be able to take surprisingly sophisticated pictures. I've had it for a couple of months, and I just returned yesterday from a week in Hawaii, where I really had the chance to use it.

At the outset, let me say that I drastically misjudged the rate of power consumption. I gave it a full charge before departure, but with only moderate use, it was drained by day three of my vacation. I used the camera in the cell phone for the rest of the trip! This was my own fault. I should have taken the battery charger with me. My cell phone is a Verizon LG Dare, which does a good job at 3 megapixels. The Sony is, of course, 10 megapix.

Nevertheless, I keep asking myself how much more is the Sony giving me than I would get with the cellphone camera? I leave that up to the user to decide.

I ordered the special cable that allows me to view the Cybershot pictures on the HDTV. This is a must. I save my pictures on the PC using Picasa, the free software from Google.

Some critics say the pictures from the Cybershot DSCT300 are "noisey." I'm not sure what this means. I think that most people will be quite pleased with the results. I expect that with more familiarity with the camera, my results will improve.

As I said in the very beginning, this is not a "point and shoot" camera. It has a wide array of menus and adjustment options. Without learning what these options do, one is not making full use of the technology. It would be like driving a car in first gear.

Taking movies works best with a stable platform, especially when the zoom is in full effect. My son who is a professional videographer introduced me to the cheap monopod, which works great. They can be had for less than $20.

Camera

The product was recieved in a couple of days, the best thing was that we were able to get the product that we wanted not just what the stores had. After shopping for a couple of days we purchase the camera at the best price through Amazon.Can not ask for anything else.

Thank You

Great on the budget

This camera does not have automatic photo rotation, NO memory card or case included, and sometimes if you simply touch the slide-down part it turns on then back off again. Seller only gave 10 days exchange/return, and I did not see that in time, or i would have gotten a later version. Otherwise, color is great, handling superb.

Not for Professional Photographers

1. This is not a camera for professional photographers. This IS a camera for those who take lots of outdoor shots, those who like the convenience of a small camera, and those who like Sony.

2. This is not a great camera for indoors/low light conditions. This is a great camera for action shots (when placed on the right settings).

3. I LOVE this camera for what I do, which is a lot of close up still life type shots. It hooks up to my HDTV and plays the most beautiful slideshows I've ever seen. The 8mp may be too much for some, but I tend to print large scale photos from my digital files, and the 8mp is PERFECT for me.

4. Being a Sony person, I have several MS Duo sticks laying around. Anyone who's got a kid with a PSP will know these aren't obsolete. I like the fact that the MS Duo isn't tiny, like some of the SD kin. I hate fubmling for a teeny-tiny little card and being afraid I'm going to lose it. I don't have that problem with this camera.

5. I really, really love the touch screen. It's big, beautiful, clear and responsive. I did put a screen protector on it as soon as I had it in my hands, so that it wouldn't get scratched. But it's stood up to 6 yr old hands many times without damage.

6. This camera is a great size for a 'Mom on the go' because it slips into a purse or back pocket very easily. The internal zoom has got to be one of the coolest things ever. I love that I can get the shot when others with their standard zooms can not.

7. All in all I would most certainly recommend this camera. It takes a little while to play with the settings and learn how to use it, but it's well worth it. It takes great photos, has a great form factor, and is very reliable.

Wish I had done more research...

This was the second digital camera that I have owned. My first one was also a Sony Cybershot, but it was very large and bulky. Since I didn't have problems with my first Cybershot, I decided to stick with Sony because it was an all around good brand. After doing some research for a couple of days, I finally settled on this camera. The touch screen seemed really high-tech and I liked how it came in black.

When I first got the camera, getting used to the touch screen didn't take too long. My main problem with the touch screen is that it gets dirty really fast. Also, simple things like turning off the flash would've just been one button push on my other camera, but with the touch screen everything takes longer to find. It's not fun to deal with, especially if you're a little tipsy LOL.

I love how small and light this camera is. It easily fits into my clutch or back pocket. I kind of regret getting black because when it gets scratched, you can really tell.

All in all, I feel like the picture quality was even worse than my previous camera. As I continued to use and get used to my camera, I wished that there were more features to let me maniuplate the camera settings. You can program this camera to "indoor" or "outdoor", but I wanted more control over the aperature and f-stop. It's a nice camera if you just want to snap and go, but next time I'll take more time when looking into a camera.

Make sure you get a memory stick for this as well, because the memory alone is pretty crappy. My favorite part of the camera is the ease with which it allows me to record small videos for YouTube. Other than that, I've used better cameras.

Best Camera I have ever owned!

My fiance purchased this camera for me for Christmas and I could not have asked for a better gift. It takes GREAT pictures, is easy to use, and I haven't had a blurry shot.
If you are looking for professional photos, skip it, but it is the best you are going to get for your money with a point and shoot. The zoom is also AMAZING. I can get things all the way from the front of my yard to the back of my yard. The touch screen also makes things easier.
