Great Camera

Review by Anthony L., 2010-08-21

Love this camera...not an expert at taking pictures, but this camera makes it a breeze. More than a simple point and shoot...has several different modes to adapt to your shooting preferences. Simply the best as far as I am concerned.


Sony cybershot Dsc-H20

Review by fs, 2010-08-14

I did alot of research on cameras...I finally decided on the sony.....this camera takes awsome photos....I searched for accessories on Amazon and found an extra battery, carrying case, memory stick and protective film for lcd screen.... very cheap on Amazon...when you set the camera to easy ...just press the button ...and it does it all for you...the features to take a nice photo are amazing....the H20 blows away my last digital camera ...which was a sony dsc p72....I highly recommend this camera if you can find it


Great Sony Camera

Review by Carol Oliver, 2010-07-31

I have searched for a small portable camera to use on trips where my Canon EOS and lenses become cumbersome. I have gone through about four small digitals in four years -- Nikon, Canon, etc, but finally found one that takes excellent shots and has great manual settings too! The supplier through Amazon.com (bought it used) was timely and the product was in excellent condition! Would use him again!


An Excellent All-Around Camera!

Review by Mohammed Sayed Ashour, 2010-06-21

Let me at first list the pros and cons I've found on the Sony DSC-H20:

Pros:
1- Amazing picture quality.
2- Amazing 10X zoom.
3- Very Easy to use.
4- Manual mode so you can control the shutter speed and aperture.
5- Macro mode is great!!
6- Very clear LCD screen
7- Great 720p HD stabilized video functionality even in low light it captures a very good video.


Cons:
1- Bad picture quality on ISO 800 and 1600.
2- you can't fully control the aperture in manual mode. you can only benefit from changing the shutter speed.
3- maximum aperture of 3.5.
4- Low battery life. you've to buy another one to save your day.
5- the sound of the video isn't that great.
6- it doesn't shoot RAW.
7- doesn't come with a bag.

I've been using this camera for a almost a year now. it was my first digital camera. and I absolutely LOVED IT!! it worths every penny! it has a great video functionality that's extremely helpful when I travel and be with friends and wanna capture those great moments. the stabilized 10X zoom is AWESOME! I can shoot at 10X and don't get shake images. the image quality is great! pictures are very clear. but it also has some few disadvantages. the 800 and 1600 ISO are bad and noisy. I find that camera useless at night. and it doesn't have manual focus which made me very uncomfortable. but it auto-focuses very well!. the maximum aperture is 3.5 and I don't have full manual control over aperture. the battery life isn't that good. I had to buy another battery to be able to use the camera in a whole event. it also doesn't come with a bag. and it's a little big to be put in your pocket.

a final word, I really enjoyed using this camera and it helped me much developing my photography skills.
it's excellent for walking and traveling. an excellent walk-around camera if you want a point and shoot that's capable of doing extremely good things. but not if you want manual focus and high ISO capability.
I guess I'm keeping it even if I moved toward a DSLR. at least for it's amazing video function and the zoom range. I loved it!
Highly Recommended :) :)


EXCELLENT!
