Digital camera reviews of Sony Cybershot DSCW80 7.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom and Super Steady Shot (Silver)
Digital camera Review: Have decided to give up on my DSC80
Summary: 1 Stars
I am not sure about all the "positive" reviews on this camera. Maybe it is the particular one I have got, but I do see some very negative reviews. I grew up in a photo studio and know enough about cameras. Only ~1 out of 3 pictures I took with this camera turned out reasonably good. Majority of the pictures were blurry and grainy, sometimes even in well-lighted settings. Overall quality of the pictures are not nearly as good as my ancient Canon G2 (3 or 4 MP? I bought it 8 years ago, unfortunately battery died 2 years ago). What a waste of many cozy moments! I have decided to trash this piece of junk and get a Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ5, which I hope will work better. Don't think I can return my Sony to Office Depot since I bought it 9 months ago.Digital camera Review: I give this ONLY 2 stars NOT 4!!!
Summary: 4 Stars
I think this camera takes good pictures with nice features on it, but everytime I take pictures (let's say I've taken about 25 pics) and go back to review the pictures later some of the pictures won't show up, but it'll say "file corrupted" with a blue screen instead. When I load the pics on the computer the picture that had that message would either show up distorted or not show up at all. So I took the camera back and exchanged it for another thinking it was defective, but the new camera does the exact same thing. Does anyone else have this problem? This is soooo annoying! Imagine having a nice picture that was a once in a lifetime shot and get ready to review it just for it to be a corrupted file! That is soooooo annoying not to mention pisses me off!!!! I'd say consider another camera if you can, but if you can get this camera at a discount price this camera just might be worth it, but I should have kept my Kodak.Digital camera Review: Lots of features and easy to use
Summary: 5 Stars
I'm an over 60 female and was shopping for my 3rd digital camera. I was looking for a camera that was compact, easy to use and took great pictures. The DSCW80 is all that and more. My hands sometimes shake, especially when I get tired, and the image stabilization in this camera completely solves that problem. The LED screen is large and easy to see, yet unlike most digitals, I have a viewfinder to fall back on in situations where I might have difficulty seeing the screen well. Great for these tired old eyes. Best of all, unlike my previous cameras, this one offers many features while being very easy to use. I don't have to wade through numerous menus to get to the most frequently used adjustments. This camera is everything I had hoped for and more.Digital camera Review: My wife loves this camera!
Summary: 4 Stars
This camera is easy to use and has a nicely sized screen. I bought this for my wife as a replacement for a cheaper 3 mp camera she had. One really cool thing about it is that it seems to auto balance the light in photos so you have a more consistent tone from edge to edge. It also takes great pictures in low light situations if you flip over to low light settings. Great value camera!Digital camera Review: No regrets here...
Summary: 5 Stars
This camera is incredibly user-friendly, and more importantly equipped with fantastic features. In its price range, I don't think it could get much better...
