I really want to like this camera, I love the size, the features and the simplicity of it
-
The size is great, but very tiny compared to my old point and shoot
-
also I think the compact size is a strong selling point
-
Slow, slow, s

Reviews around phone (4.66 of 5)
-
If you have a smart phone that takes good pictures (and most do nowadays), this camera is a useless bauble
-
So, if you have a nice smart phone, this camera won't offer much additional.
-
Nowadays smart phone cameras are so good, I question the need to spend $140 on a little pocket camera like this
-
This model is very small and almost as thin as my smart phone
-
I like using a digital camera for events or places where i dont like to take my phone out, but i guess ill still be taking my pictures on my crappy little samsung phone

Reviews around price (4.54 of 5)
-
The delivery time was greatPackaging was great, price was great directions sucked.
-
I could not begin to talk about the many other features, a truly great camera at a very good price.
-
Not worth the price even at half.
-
Everything works great on this camera, price is great, but there is no macro focus.
-
Otherwise this is a great camera and I got it for a great price.

Reviews around point (4.48 of 5)
-
But the proof is in the pudding: this camera did not satisfy a no-experience point-and-shooter like my wife.
-
I would recommend this product to others looking for an affordable point and shoot camera.
-
but that does not take away from its performance as a very nice point and shoot camera.
-
Nice little point and shoot camera with the resolution to give my pics on Ebay a nice crisp look
-
Build quality (feel) and screen are weak points.

after some research, bought this one for my 14 year old to log with, it takes awesome photos, great video, good audio, is VERY small and has image stabilizer

Video quality not the best

It performs flawlessly and takes excellent photos and video.

The videos and photos were pretty good, but I got the camera too close before my trip,

Reviews around photo (4.19 of 5)

Haven't put it to use much yet, other than just messing around with some of the features while taking silly photos
-
I have had it for a couple of weeks now and every photo I took was terrible
-
I wanted a small, lightweight, easy to use camera that takes good quality photos
-
There is only enough internal memory to hold 3 photos, virtually useless

Reviews around image (3.89 of 5)
-
Panoramic images looked great with the image zoomed out to fill the screen on my laptop, but when you zoom in you can tell the quality isn't quite there
-
A few weeks ago I noticed while taking still shots the image was distorted with lines going through them
-
At first the pic's look perfect from the camera monitor but when you transfer the pictures to your PC or develop the pictures the color looks dull and the image is grainy
-
I have seen great image quality from Sony cameras before, and so expected the same from this camera
-
I just wanted something to take some quick, but sharp images

-
The Sony is actually easier to use, faster processing time and good quality photos for when a cell phone is not an option.
-
Which brings us to something else that is useless---Sony customer service
-
I know lots of people use their phone for pictures, but for me, you just can't beat a good Sony Camera!
-
Sony just keeps upgrading their products to better and better quality

I love this camera brand SONY, very good photos and the excellent Zoom!

Very nice camera with great telephoto lens and excellent photos.
-
I had a camera very simular to this and accidently dropped it and broke the lens after enjoying it for many years, thought this was the same
-
(The lens wobble is noticeable when the camera is closed; it doesn't affect the quality of the photos.
-
It has an amazing lens, works great in low light, is tiny, easy to use and takes much better pictures than my iPhone 4.
-
Very easy to use, seems well made, great lens, light weight, very good picture quality and plenty of useful features.

I recommend this product, I have compared its definition and color with my lumix

I can only do my small part by telling family, friends, and acquaintances about this outrageous forced extortion for more money for a shoddy product
-
I would recommend this product to others looking for an affordable point and shoot camera.

Great deal and product for the price - easy to use and learn!

Reviews around card cover (3.34 of 5)
-
Resolution is more than needed, so no problem with that, but the lens was not as crisp and sharp as I had hoped for.
-
The battery/card cover is rather flimsy and could easily be broken accidentally and it takes longer than I would have expected for the camera to get
-
okay, it's only when you start zooming into the photos you'll notice the slight noise that comes with the photo, other times the noise can be apparent straight away, along with the photo not being as sharp as it could
-
The battery/card cover is rather flimsy and could easily be broken accidentally and it takes longer than I would have expected for the camera to get ready for the next shot, no doubt to do with the 20.1 mega pixels.

During two rides (Ariels under sea adventure and the Monsters ink ride) i didn't like the lag that was on this camera during night shots
-
It is slow--long lag between pressing the button and getting the pic, so time for moving and blurring
