Digital camera reviews of Sony Cybershot DSCT7 5.1MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom

Digital camera Review: A Great Camera for On-the-Go Photography
Summary: 4 Stars

I have to say I love this camera. It's so easy and handy, and it's cover makes it so easy to take pictures quickly, and to capture those "kodak-moments". Without flash, sometimes pictures come out a little grainy, but usually they come out very good in bright light. The flash is great for taking pictures, even in complete darkness they come out like it was daylight. I have not ever had a malfunction with the camera, and the pictures are very easy to upload to a computer. I would deffinatly recommend this camera to younger customers who use cameras on the go, and want a small portable camera that doesn't bulk up when you turn it on.

The only downsides to this camera is that sometimes it turns on in my bag, but usually after a minute of no usage/activity, it turns off automatically. Another downside is the battery does not last for that long, although I have never had it run out of battery after only a day of usage, but usually if I don't charge the battey for a week, it does not have much battery left (but that might be becaue I use it a lot).

So I deffinatly recommend this camera. Sure, not to those who want amazing landscape photographs with incredible zoom, but just to those who like taking pictures of friends, family, ect.

Summary of Sony Cybershot DSCT7 5.1MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom

Sony DSC-T7 5.1-megapixel camera brings super-compact size to a new level. The camera is 3/8 inches thin at its narrowest point and 5/8 inches thin at its widest. That's a stark contrast to its integrated 2.5-inch LCD display (that's among the largest size screens in this class). Images are sharp because Sony uses a Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens with 3x optical zoom. The innovative Real Imaging Processor in the DSC-T7 not only improves picture quality and clarity but also improves camera response time, decreases shutter lag, and improves battery stamina. With still and movie modes, and a special docking station to make charging and transferring images easier, this digital-camera is perfect for you and your family. Captures VGA (640 x 480) high frame rate (up to 30 frames per second) audio-video clips with length limited only by the capacity of the media. Video mail mode captures smaller file sizes suitable for email. Multi-mode electronic-flash Stores all images on Memory Stick(R) Duo media; captures VGA audio-video clips (length limited only by media) - Tested to support up to 1GB capacity Can transfer images to a Windows PC and/or a Macintosh computer Dimensions - 3 5/8 x 2 3/8 x 5/8 w/LCD Cover; 4.1 Ounces
Sony's DSCT7 5.1-megapixel camera brings super-compact size to a new level. The camera is 3/8 inches thin at its narrowest point and 5/8 inches thin at its widest. Despite its small size, the camera still includes the quality features you've come to expect from Sony digital cameras, including a large, 2.5-inch LCD display, a Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens with 3x optical zoom, and enough megapixels to help you capture detail for photo-quality prints up to 13 x 17 inches.

1/2.4-Inch 5.1-Megapixel Effective Super HAD CCD
Super HAD (Hole Accumulation Diode) CCDs provide excellent image quality by allowing more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity, and reducing noise.

The Sony DSCT7's display
The T7's super-size 2.5-inch display is much larger than the 1.5-inch displays common to ultra-compact cameras.
2.5-Inch Hybrid LCD Monitor
The enormous 2.5-inch LCD provides a high resolution view while shooting, with transmissive/reflective Hybrid design for extraordinary brightness in direct sunlight and large, easy to read menus. Unique in such a compact camera, this large screen makes it easy to share image playback with friends.

Clear Photo LCD
The DSCT7 includes Clear Photo LCD technology which provides higher resolution, contrast ratio and brightness. Images in the LCD will have up to a 40% improvement in color reproduction than previous models.

Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens
The Vario-Tessar lens is specially produced for compact cameras and provides rapid auto focus with appealing zoom range. Utilizing a highly transmissive optical grade prism, the lens is housed entirely inside the camera body, and does not need to extend for use.

The Sony DSCT7's super-slim body
The Sony DSCT7 is a mere
5/8 inches thin.
Super Compact Slim Body
The ultra-compact and thin size (9.8 millimeters) of the DSCT7 makes it the perfect camera to tuck in a pocket or purse for high-quality, high resolution photos almost anywhere.

Real Imaging Processor Technology
The innovative Real Imaging Processor in the DSCT7 not only improves picture quality and clarity but also improves camera response time, decreases shutter lag, and improves battery stamina.

The Sony DSCT7's interior
This compact body contains Sony's Real Imaging Processor, a Carl Zeiss 3x optical zoom lens, a 5.1 MP CCD, and more.
3x Optical/2x Digital/6x Total Zoom
3x Optical Zoom helps you frame your shots for better digital pictures. And Sony's Precision Digital Zoom provides an additional 2x magnification without the jagged edges of other designs, resulting in smoother images.

0 to 12x Smart Zoom Feature (Up to 12x at VGA Resolution)
Smart Zoom intelligently uses the full CCD to let you zoom into the portion of interest by cropping the image size, thus avoiding the image degradation of digital zooms.

14-Bit DxP A/D Conversion
Sony's 14-bit Digital Extended Processor captures the range between highlight and shadow with up to 16,384 values, for extended dynamic contrast and detail.

Magnifying Glass Mode
With its extraordinarily close focusing capability (1 centimeter) and oversized LCD, the DSCT7's Magnifying Glass mode can display images at over 3x actual size. This powerful capability opens up new possibilities in macro photography.

5-Area Multi-Point Autofocus
By evaluating 5 separate focus areas of the frame, Sony's Multi-Point AF system can intelligently focus on the subject and avoid mistakenly focusing on the background.

AF (Autofocus) Illuminator
Briefly illuminating the subject, in low or no-light conditions, the AF Illuminator helps establish a positive focus lock.

Multi-Pattern Measuring
Independently light-metering 49 points of the frame, Multi-Pattern Measuring establishes the optimum exposure, even when highlight and shadow isn't centered in the frame.

Memory Stick Duo Media
Digital. Powerful. Transportable. Memory Stick Duo media is compact, portable and rugged, connecting a variety of hardware and software applications.

Scene Selection Mode
With 10 Scene Modes, parameters can be matched to the shooting conditions. Choose from one of the following: Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Soft Snap, Landscape, Beach, Snow, Fireworks, High Speed Shutter, Candle, and Magnifying Glass.

Multi-Burst Mode
Captures 16 consecutive 320 x 240 frames as part of a single 1280 x 960 image which plays back sequentially in the camera or as a single image on your computer. Selectable 1/7.5, 1/15, and 1/30 second frame intervals provide convenient motion analysis.

MPEG Movie VX Fine Modes
Captures VGA (640 x 480) high frame rate (up to 30 frames per second) audio-video clips with length limited only by the capacity of the media. Video mail mode captures smaller file sizes suitable for email.

Pre-Flash Metering
With a momentary pre-flash, the camera illuminates the subject and sets exposure through the lens for accurate flash metering. Adjustable flash level and red-eye reduction ensure great flash shots.

Rechargeable InfoLithium Battery
Supplied NP-FE1 InfoLithium battery; Provides reliable power for continuous shooting, without memory effect of other battery types.

Camera Desktop Stand Supplied
Placing the DSC-T7 on the Camera Desktop Stand and using the supplied multi-connector provides a quick and easy connection between the camera and a TV for easy viewing, or a USB supported computer for MPEG video and still image transfer.
