Reviews

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T90

    Looking for a touchscreen camera? The T90 should be on your list as it packs a heck of a lot of features into a pretty stylish case.

  • Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-WX1

    The WX1 features the Exmor R CMOS sensor, and has a 2.7-inch LCD screen and a 5x optical zoom, available from October.

  • Sony Ericsson C903

    The Sony Ericsson C903 blew our minds with its excellent photo quality. Its plastic-y body and lack of Wi-Fi connectivity reflect its low price, but it performs like a more expensive model.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W190

    With 12.1 megapixels and a 3x optical zoom, the W190 is a fairly standard point-and-shoot from Sony, with a couple of extras like Smile Shutter and face detection included.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W230

    At a reasonably low price for budget shoppers, the W230 has quite a few nice features. Unfortunately, the camera has a lens that is not too sturdy, below par image quality and a battery life that will disappoint.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W180

    With a 10.1 megapixel sensor, the W180 is a fairly standard compact camera, as it has a 3x optical zoom and a 2.7-inch LCD screen.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T900

    The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T900 is a good, fast snapshot camera that's also very attractive and extremely compact. Its battery life is a little short and some will find the photo quality unworthy of the price tag. You're paying for the great design more than for great photos.

  • Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290

    The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 is a compelling package. Unless you're extraordinarily picky about your photo quality, it's a great pocket camera at a reasonable price with a solid combination of features, usability and design.
