Great Camera 
2007-01-09
I bought this camera after reading the reviews on the internet and I am so happy to have bought this....I bought this as a gift for my brother and the pictures were just amazing....the battery life was great and after inserting a 512mb memory stick I could take almost 400 pics at a time....the onyl drawback was the flash recharge time but beside that this is a great camera to own....
Its ok but not the best 
2007-01-05
Hi: I've had this item for a little less then 1yr and I am having problems with the setting automatically changing when I am going to take a picture. Also pictures are coming out a bit blur and the zoom does not work well since the pictures are not very clear. I love the brand Sony but I think they can do better specially because of the price. Now adays you can find more variation of cameras at low prices. I am sending mine in for a repair since sony does not have any locations, so be careful.
The best camera I have ever owned 2006-09-10
I was given this camera for Christmas in 2005, and have never been happier. It not only takes great pictures, but the battery holds a charge for a really long time. It is compact enough to stick in my purse and take anywhere I want to go, and I never have to worry if the batteries are charged -- they always are! One feature that seems more and more difficult to find in digital cameras is the date stamp on the photo. I love this feature and accidentially purchased an Olympus digital camera that didn't have it. I owned a Sony digial camera before this one and loved it, but this one is even better.
Great Camera, Great Value 2006-07-06
I have got to say that this is one of the best purchases I have ever done. Besides the 150$ offer price that I paid for it, it is a great camera (of course, it's a Sony), specially for photo amateurs like me. I've been using for about four months and I'm very satisfied with it. Let's start with the pros:
- 4.1 MP for great pictures at maximum resolution (and 4.1 is enough for me)
- 2.5 inch, clear, bright, crisp (huge!) LCD screen
- If you equip a Memory Stick Pro, you can take camcorder-like video (I can take approx. 3 minutes of high-quality video with a 256 MB Memory Stick)
- It comes with powerful rechargeable batteries (charger included), which last enough for, say..., a birthday party, although I recommend buying an extra pair.
- Numerous shooting modes for a variety of lighthing conditions. It also has a Manual mode for those pros that know how tweak lens and camera settings.
- Sturdy construction, excellent Sony design.
Now, the cons:
- Hmmm... I guess a couple of things that annoy me is the time it takes for the camera to recharge between two shots in automatic mode (about 3 seconds) and the other thing is that the USB cable to connect the camera to the CPU is propietary on the camera's end, and now I think I lost the cable, and will probably have to buy a new one. Thank God I have a memory card reader, else I would have a great useless camera.
To sum it up, I love it, and defenitely recommend it if you look for a budget camera.
Nice camera for casual photographers 2006-05-01
Let me start off by saying that I usually never have anything nice to say about Sony since I have been burned by their products a lot, but this is a nice camera.
First of all, the overall quality of pictures are good and can be taken very quickly one after another, even with the flash on. However, I noticed that taking upclose pictures come out blurry sometimes, especially in low light.
The lcd screen is beautiful. Nice size but still to small to really cant enjoy your pics.
The menus are also very easy to navigate. If you are familar with digital cameras, you will have little problems finding the things you want, changing the settings, and viewing and deleting picutres. It is very straight foward and all makes sense.
I only have two gripes with the camera.
First of all, it is too big for my tastes. I prefer the ultra compact cameras that fit into your pocket.
Secondly, the use of memory sticks. I hate using memory sticks because only Sony products use these items. And if you have a PSP, dont count on using the same stick you use for your camera for your PSP. You have to buy a different version.
Overall, its a nice camera for point and shooting camera for its price. However, if you want more manual controls and better picture quality, this is not the camera for you.
Love this camera! 2007-07-18
I've had this camera for a couple of years and I absolutely love it! I have not had any trouble with it. I have found that rechargeable AA batteries last ALOT longer than alkaline. I am impressed with the picture quality and ease of use. I'd buy it again!
excellent camera 2007-06-20
i have had this camera for nearly one year now. i've had problems with lousy shutters in digital cameras before, but this one works great. sometimes there is an error on the flash feature of this camera, but other than that, it's perfect. takes fantastic photos in nearly all light conditions. i even bought a waterproof case for it and it takes fantastic pictures underwater and when wet (when there's beaded water on the outside of casing lens window).
great for the price too. overall i am very satisfied with this product and would purchase it over again-- which i have! i dropped the uncased camera in a lake last month and replaced it with one exactly like it. The new one works beautifully.

I've been a Sony fan as long as I remember, but this product is the worst Sony ever made.
Picture qulity is bad, it won't take a high capacity memory stick, it's big and heavy.
I'm looking for a diffrent camara now and this one is going to be my little girl toy.
Good Camera.

I like this camera for its colors, beautiful outdoor pictures, lots of options and settings. I've been using it for about a year with no major problems. The minor problems I've encountered with it are:
1. About 20% of pictures come out blurry, especially when zoomed in.
2. A lot of blurry pictures when using self timer option - even with a tripod.
3. Red eye problem is very common in low light conditions even with the eye reduction option.
3. The fact that you have to set time and date every time you open a camera to change a battery or memory card is very annoying.
Overall ist's a good camera and worth the price.
Great Camera Great Price 2007-01-29
the camera is easy to use, takes nice photos which print really well. It shows much more detail than a regular camera would. I would recommend adding a memory stick for extra memory.
