Pros & Cons

Update Pros and Cons

Pros

Photo quality is much more crisp than my a95. Colors are not always as vibrant as i like, and some colors just seem a little 'off' only complaints are the over-vibrant picture output in auto mode and the old school lens cap that you have to take on an... Read More

Easy to use, easy to understand, auto function does everything for you. Takes fabulous photos if you use it correctly in a given situation. The macro mode is my favorite mode.

Tiny camera has 10x optical zoom that works well. Easy to use, even for the very beginner. It zooms like i wanted and the pix are crystal clear.

Although it does not have quite the telephoto range of the competitive nikon, it has a clearer lens. Stabilized lens elements allow people with shaky hands to get good pictures.

Very nice ergonomic touches with pads on the front and back for added support. It feels solid and */dials are ergonomically positioned on my feeling/fit. It is a bit heavier than i was expecting, but that's ok.

Cons

The easy setting is useless for scenery shots because it has no manual override. I have to adjust it lower whenever i plan to use it otherwise it washes out the color of the subject. If i get sidetracked editing some photos and leave the camera on the... Read More

Memory stick duo is slow and proprietary. This is not even sonys latest and greatest.

Unless the subject is perfectly still, chances are the picture will be blurry. The default color and light intensity settings greatly overexpose the pictures. Therefore, the pictures are over exposed and under saturated in color.

Quality

Excellent camera, very good product, high quality in the photos and video

The image stabilization works great and produces clear shake free images.

Suffering growing pains, much like automobiles did at the early 20th century, the problem with many digital cameras is form over function.

Needed to replace the camera my wife broke and stumbled upon this.

Price

The price was great for all the camera holds.

I bought this camera a year ago for about 1/2 the current price and it takes great photo's.

I only paid $100 bucks for it used.

I got this camera for 220 bucks on amazon about a year ago, and ive seen it retail for 500.

Shipping

Two days into the trip i found myself in an electronics store searching for a compact camera that could still deliver quality.

So i returned it after a day and decided to try this camera after paying attention to all the reviews on amazon & cnet.

The problem was that when i finally found it on amazon it could only be delivered in the us so i had to wait for a friend with ... Read More

Packaging/appearance

My sony cybershot was stolen in a home burglary this past yr and i thought i wanted to upgrade so i got the sony alpha 55.

The best thing about it though the camera was still in the same box and the accessories were still in the plastic packaging.

There are two things worth mentioning that hurt the overall package.

Competitiveness

The h20 telephoto pictures from its 10 to 1 zoom lens are better than any 35mm telephoto pictures i've ever taken and i used 35... Read More

After much research, i had decided to buy one of the most affordable canon cybershot cameras.

I've tested the fuji x10, kodak z915, samsung sl620, samsung sl50, and a few under the $99 mark and none of this compares to my dsc-h20.

I switched from minolta in the film world to cannon and now shoot the digital rebel.
