Excellent for tne novice March 8, 2010 Goose (Wisconsin) This is a camera I purchased for my wife who has problems with setting the camera to the proper shot mode. Put this camera in auto and she's ready to go. All of her shots turned out great. She lost the blury pictures and the dark figures with the bright background. Easy to off load pictures so she can do that herself now. It is bigger than her last sony but she claims this is easier for her to hold steady and the hand hold makes that possible. As far as battery life goes we are getting approxmittly 150 to 175 pictures per battery. However these are batteries she had from her last camera. Overall we are happy with this purchase.
Great Camera! March 6, 2010 Shanel L. Seger (Northern Lower Michigan) I was very nervous about buying a new camera that was this much money, but I am very glad I did! I had an old Sony Cybershot, and wanted an update.
My main thing I was looking for was a Sony camera that zoomed in while filming, and this is the cheapest one I could find. Although I haven't had the chance to do much filming with it, I am very happy with it so far! I took it to my little brother's basketball game and got some amazing photos! I couldn't believe the clarity, and they weren't blurry! I also love how far it zooms in. I got some awesome shots of some bald eagles and they were across a field! I am looking forward to taking this to concerts with me and trying it out.
Although this camera is a little more bulkier than I'm used to, it's definitely not as big as I was expecting. If you're questioning whether this is a good camera for you, I recommend going to Best Buy and looking at it in person. But be sure to buy it from Amazon, it's cheaper and the free shipping was SUPER fast!
Sony is superb! March 5, 2010 G. Hertel 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
My first digital camera was a Sony Mavica (MVC-FD73) --remember? The one that recorded to 3.5" disks. I loved that camera but became unhappy with the low resolution. My second digital was an HP. I was unhappy with that one because it had such a slow response time. Not a good feature when you're trying to capture pics of active grandkids -- also, I missed the 10x zoom of the Mavica. I read all the reviews of high zoom cameras and decided to go with the Sony Cyber-Shot. My good experience with the Mavica was the deciding factor in purchasing the Cyber-Shot. I have not been disappointed. The camera is easy to use, takes excellent pictures, has an almost indetectable click-to-record delay, and has many other good features. I was very impressed by the clarity and color of the pictures. I also like the feature that allows you to select the resolution from the 480x640 size to a 10 Megapixel file. With a 4 GB memory stick, there's room for hundreds of 10 Meg images or thousands of lesser-sized images. The camera also takes videos and with a 4 GB stick will record for several minutes. The ease with which I was able to show the pictures and videos on my TV was impressive. Transfer to a computer is equally simple. I have had the camera for about a month and am still learning about some of its features. I am very pleased with my purchase.
much improved from the h5 February 27, 2010 rj (chicago) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
this is my 3rd sony digital camera and each one has improved from the previous model. the sony h20 has intelligent auto which knows what type of picture you want to take and sets itself accordingly. compared to the h5, i lose 2x in zoom (10 vs 12), but the size is cut in half. i thought it would make a great backup to the h5. it looks like the h5 is the backup to my h20. i will write more when i return from new zealand and australia and let you know how the h20 faired.
