Digital camera reviews of Sony Cybershot DSC-S700 7.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom
Digital camera Review: Camera review
Summary: 4 Stars
Great little camera, ready to go out of the box, SONY quality, basically point and shoot.Digital camera Review: Decent Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
The camera is very good compared to the price, especially that I got it for $99.99 (Christmas offer). The camera rsolution is very good, has good zoom, and easy to use. It just needs a new user to figure out the different modes from the manual.
Digital camera Review: Disappointed
Summary: 1 Stars
I have owned three of these, and all three have malfunctioned. The first one worked for about three days, then just cut off right when it was turned on, even with new batteries. The second one did not function at all; and the third one had the same problem as the first. For the time that the first one worked, I was pretty happy with it... But I am now tired of all the problems these have given me and have moved on to a different brand. Sure, this thing might not be as expensive, but for about $20-$30 more you can get a much better camera that's actually RELIABLE.Digital camera Review: Easy to use, but beware

Sony Cybershot S700 7.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical ZoomOK, here's my impressions of this camera. I have never owned a digital camera before. I just wanted a simple point and shoot to take pics for Ebay. I do not care for bells and whistles. I just want to do what a point and shoot is for. I want to take it out of the box and take pics. There are many things to like about this camera. I dropped it twice on a wooden floor from a height of 3 feet and no damage, so it's built tough. The buttons are not very intuitive, but the manual is easy to read and understand. It is easy to load and use the included editing software. I especially like that when you plug the usb cable into the camera, the editing software automatically pops up and asks you if you want to download. Very handy! Someone mentioned it's easy to accidently delete pics. No it's not. You have to first hit the disp button, then the delete button, then tab up to highlight delete, then hit enter. It would be very hard to accidently delete a shot. There are several cons with this camera. One, the usb protector cover is very flimsy rubber, and it's only a matter of time before it breaks. There is little in camera editing available. You can rotate, resize, or reduce red-eye, but that's about it. The included software lets you do this as well, but only has a few more editing tricks. You can adjust brightness, sharpness, tone, or crop. There is an automatic feature which is somewhat usefull. If you're serious about your pics looking their best, you will need a professional software program. Here are my biggest dislikes, which is why I give it 3 stars. A camera should take good pics right? Well, this does but only if you have surgeons hands. There is no image stabilizer in this camera. My hand shakes slightly, and most of my pics have been blurry because of this. I thought a tripod would help, but the tripod dock is on the left. This makes it easy to tip the camera over when using this, which is how mine got dropped twice. It should be in the center. The shutter button needs to be pressed half-way to focus, and then fully to take the pic. This requires too much pressure, which again makes a steady shot difficult when your finger moves the camera. The low iso setting is useless for close-ups. Pics were dark and grainy. It would only be good for long shots where the flash won't work. I will be trading this camera for one with an image stabilzer. Since even most entry-level cameras have that these days, I'd say the DSC700 is seriously outdated. If you have steady hands, and can get this really cheap like I did, it's a good entry-level camera. But unless you have surgeons hands, I'd look elsewhere.Digital camera Review: Exactly what I ordered; nothing more......
Summary: 5 Stars
Shipment was quick and simple. Order came exactly as ordered, brand new condition. The camera is amazing quality; without the memorystick though it can only hold 10 pics = (. Camera did not come fully loaded, however it was exactly as described.
