Great Camera
- Pros: This is a great little camera. I actually just bought my second one to replace one I lost over the holidays. I have always liked the pictures I take with it and am highly satisfied. Battery life is very good. It's not a $500 digital body SLR and buyers need to remember that. It's a point and shoot and a very good one. It takes crisp clear pictures if you read the manual and take some time to understand it. And if you read the specifications and do some research before you buy you won't be posting bad reviews because of your oversights. Initially I was worried about the battery door/memory card feature but my old camera was 2 years old and I had no problems at all. And I always remove the card and use a card reader to transfer pictures. I am sure I took over 5000 pictures of my grand daughters with the old camera and it still worked as good as the day I bought it.
- Cons: My old one seems to have grown legs and walked away. I will keep this one on a better leash.
- Other Thoughts: Buy this camera. Buy it from Newegg. They make a perfect combo!
- Pros: Great color choices. Takes excellent pictures.
- Cons: Battery cover is flimsy
- Other Thoughts: With a little knowledge this camera takes pictures like no other Point and Shoot I have ever had.
Cute
- Pros: Great design. Takes good pictures. Great camera for most people. Very good built. Bought it for my cousin, who was about to buy a horrible camera solely because of the Sony brand.
- Cons: Doesn’t shoot raw, which is an important feature for me. But since most people don’t shoot raw, it’s really not that big of a negative. Also it does not come with a memory card. (SD Card.)
- Other Thoughts: To the person who complained about not being able to charge the battery through USB power. I hope you didn’t take away any eggs because of that. The review should be focused on how well the camera performs, not a rare feature that most cameras probably don’t have. Even if this camera did have such a rare feature, which is rare because technical reasons (USB power is too poor for most batteries), I would much rather charge the battery through the charger which is a whole lot faster. I once saw someone give an external hard drive 1 egg because he didn’t like that they switched the power button from back to the front. The person didn’t even own the hard drive, because the model had just been release that day. Giving a product a low score for such issue does a disservice to customers.
