Cute, Fun, Photos on the run,
I wanted a little point and shoot to take with me when I knew I wouldn’t want to carry around my big camera. I had only looked at a couple, and saw this one in the store, and liked the look, and the clarity it gives.
In owning it, I am not 100% sure it does what I expected, but for the price, and for what I want to use it for, it does GREAT!!! I can’t expect more from something that I didn’t pay alot for.. but… with that said.. this little guy does a WHOLE lot of things, that every time I sit and play with it, I find something new.
Some complain about no charger, but I have one in my camera box that CAME with it. So I am not sure. You can do it 2 ways, with your computer via USB or with plugging it in and charging it that way. The charging of the battery is done with the battery IN the camera. I also purchased This…”EZOPower Battery Charger with EU / Car Adapter + Accessory Pouch Case for Sony DSC-TF1, TX30, WX80, W730, W710, W670, WX150 Digital Cameras *Compatible with NP-BN1* (from Amazon)” as a just in case because people had said there wasn’t a charger. With this, I can now use in the car too, but so far, once I charge the battery, it lasts me all day.
I love the size of this camera, I love the shots that I have gotten. With any camera, you have to get to know it, and figure out the settings that you want, to get the result you want, this one isn’t any different.
I am NOT disappointed in my purchase of this camera/set.

I’m digging it.,
I was looking for a compact camera with great resolution and this does just that. I was comparing this with some of the cannon compacts and decided for higher resolution and less zoom and instead of lower resolution and more zoon from the cannon.
I’ve owned prior models of sony cybershot camera’s and this one does the job. Easy to point and shoot, easy to setup and has a lot of options ‘maybe too many for a compact’ but lots of options. Flash works much better than i thought i would for such a small flash. The 25mm lens captures the room well. The pictures so far are vibrant. I’m looking forward to using it more.
There were some poor reviews about battery life. It looks like it was last a few hours if just shooting pictures and I’m totally ok with that. I bought the kit form focus and it came with a spare anyways that will fit in your change pocket so if you’re going to be shoot a ton, take a spare. Overall I’m very happy and the kit was a steal vs buying the camera alone. I would recommend to a friend.

Incredible Deal!!!,
This was an incredible deal. I had gone into Best Buy to look at this camera. The camera in store (with no memory storage or extra battery) was as expensive as this complete package. I was a little hesitant about the deal as it seemed too good to be true, but I’m so glad that I went through with buying this camera on Amazon. The only thing that I am struggling with is the WIFI setting. It claims I have found an access point, but always that the signal is too low. I still find it easiest to just plug in the camera to the computer, so I’m not too concerned about this. I have owned sony cyber shot cameras before, and they have really made some great improvements with the many settings this camera has to offer. I am also a fan of the setting wheel rather than the menu keys as well as the zoom knob around the capture button. This camera has both of these qualities I like.
