| This camera is a nice little thing, but much smaller than I had anticipated. This fits in my hand, which is great, but it's so light that it's more prone to shaky videos if you don't have a steady hand. The zoom lever is in a very inconvenient position, right on top, so if you need to zoom in or out, you are more likely to shake the camera. I like the touchscreen option, but because the screen is so small, it can be very difficult to hit the option you were aiming for in the first place... Overall, a nice product for somebody with really steady and little hands... But I will definitely go for something a little bit bigger next time. |
Sony products avoided for life

Camera is fine when it has worked, which was exactly 90 days ago. And i bought a 2 year warrantee!!!
My kid got the camera for Christmas with the 2 year extended warrantee for parts and labor
On 3/29, I called Sony because touch screen failed. still on sony's warrantee for parts, they had a tech walk me through tests. after testing they said send it in to sony but then decided that it should be send to CPS, the extended warrantee company. CPS received the camera in late April and finally the online site noted that "it was sent service center" on 5/6/10. It is 6/29/10 and I still have no idea when they will have the part and fix the camera.
So, between Sony's inability to furnish parts and their warrantee company ,CPS, to expedite a repair, I and my 2 teenage sons have vowed to avoid any Sony products ( 2 months to provide a new touch screen?).
The camera is fine as long as it never needs to be repaired. |
