Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55 ... Duo - sleek silver / The slim, compact DSC-W55 model sports 7.2-megapixel imager and precision Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lenses. It combines traditional, eye-level viewfinder with large LCD screen for easy framing and viewing of photos. The W55 camera makes a splash with a 2.5-inch LCD screen wrapped in a metal body. This model features 3x optical zoom capability, blur-reduction technology (ISO), and substantial internal memory for shooting without a media card. Its storage capacity can be expanded further with an optional Memory Stick Duo or Memory Stick PRO Duo flash media card.

Newest Review: ... flash and focus settings for all types of lighting conditions, etc. Of course, you won't be able to take distant landscape ... more

 ... pictures in dark conditions but that's something you only expect from a very high end photographer's camera anyway. It is sleek and small and the cover that it comes with is great because it helps avoid scratches. This camera is just a great way to remember life when looking at the crisp clear pictures. I highly recommend this model or any Sony Cyber-shot for that matter, because they are very high quality and reliable cameras. (you know what your getting and it doesn't disappoint)...more

Hello Well, I have got bad experience with Sony, in the past I bought 2 different models from them, I always got out of focus and blurred images so I change to Panasonic Lumix, now it is time to give a Sony a new opportunity Is this a good camera or what?, well, its a cheap, light and small camera, but it can't get 5 out of 5. Playing around with the camera I realize it doesn't have a microphone built-in, so there is no way to record sound in video mode, don't try to use these feature if you are serious about video, but why do they put this options if you can't hear anything? The LCD display is 2.5" with a display format of ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Sony Cyber shot DSC-W55..... Must have (341 words)

I just came back from holiday last month, which was fabulous. Before i went i bought this camera for £130. I was able to capture my favourite moments using this slick new camera from Sony in the DSC line. With 7.2 megapixel it produces brilliant quality pictures that you can hang in frames, plus you can take video clips upto 3 hours long depending on how much free memory there is. Theres a 2.5 inch viewfinder LCD to see the pictures that you are taking. Its crystal clear and doesn't strain the eyes. Theres 3x optical zoom and 6x digital zoom which is really useful when you want to take photos of far away things. It even retains the quality of the ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55: Sony Cybershot DSC-W55 - Fab! (219 words)

I have had the Cyber-shot W55S since last summer 07. We have it in the pink version, i had missed out on another brand's limited pink edition and went for this as it is to share with my 4 year old. It is a stylish design and the shiny finish and colour is appealing to the eye. With 7.2 megapixels,the photo quality is excellent and images are very clear. The large 2.5-inch LCD screen displays pictures clearly with a 'play' button to switch to and from 'capture' to 'view' modes.You can flip through the images easily. There's an option to take images in various light settings plus you can set it on a timer and also make short videos. It has a CARL ZEISS ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Give the DCS-55 a try. (91 words)

I had bought the DCS-55 2 month ago, and i founded as a perfect camera ,espcially the back design. Just be carefull when you recharge the battery, it must be empty at all. For the price together with the quality, you can't really beat it. So far I have had no problems and have taken many great photographs. So if you want a good, cheap and reliable entry-level camera, and you can still find one, give the DCS-55 a try. ...  Read the complete review

This camera wins in all categories that matter from ease of use, to excellent view finder, to great pictures and long battery life - very sleek, fits anywhere easily and does its job while looking good! The camera can take so many amazing out standing photos that has been great to show family and friends. This camera is great for anyone who loves taking photos or who just wants to remember their memories. The settings on this camera are hard to figure out at first but as you play with camera more it becomes easier and a lot more fun to have. There are many settings for the seasons, weather, time of day, and whether you are indoors or outdoors. When changing ...  Read the complete review
