5 out of 5 stars Great camera   November 20, 2008
R. Schultz (Stoddard, Wisconsin)
I love this new camera. I had a Sony at one time then went to a Kodak with the bigger LCD screen but the pictures on the Kodak do not compare to the quality and sharpness of this Sony. I was not happy that the date does not show up on the pictures, but it is very simple to add it on the computer. As soon as my daughter saw this new camera, she bought one too.

I purchased this camera for my husband's 40th Birthday. We love it! It been about a month and we've taken almost 800 pictures since. It has amazing features and I recomend everyone to buy it. I had been looking around for one for a while. I wish I could slip it into my purse but the finished quality is more important to me. The zoom is also amazing.

Got this camera a week ago, and am happy so far, I am not an experienced photographer by any means and I will admit that there is more functions than I can use, but it does come equipped with easy to understand functions for those of us that just want to take some good family pictures. I used it at my sons football game last night and had a little trouble with blurry pics when they were moving, I even tried it in the sports shooting mode and the pics justcame out dark. When they did stand still, the pictures were great. I do have some advice about getting that extra lithium battery for a back up. First of all I recommend it for those times that you need to get those important shots and the battery goes dead. This camera only uses the "infoLithium" style batterys, DO NOT purchase a cheaper one from other battery stores, you will get a black screen that tells you that you need to use only "infolithium batteries" and will have to return it as I did. I will tell you that Buy.com had the best price for this battery (sorry Amazon). If a lot of functions and settings confuse you, then this may not be the camera for you, but if you have some knowledge of camera function than this is a great buy. I will also mention that I had a little trouble finding a camera bag to fit this camera. Sony has a case that says it will fit, but it looks like there would not be too much more room for extra items that I like to carry with my camera. I did find a case at ebags.com from Crumpler called "the 3 million dollar" the best way to describe it is a small version of a book bag. it has great protection for the camera and is very comfortable to wear and has room for the extras I mentioned. Hope this review helps.
