To be honest I mainly just leave it on auto adjustment and it always take a good photo. This year whilst on my honeymoon I decided to try out the beach mode, and whilst photos looked good on the playback mode, once I got home and put them on the tv/computer I realised that they were really dark - I assume the setting tries to do this in case there is a lot of s...more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55: Sony Cybershot DSC-W55 - Fab! (220 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

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

Crowned ReviewSony Cyber-shot DSC-W55: Cheap Shot! (939 words)

Back in the soft-lit days of my rapidly diminishing youth (admittedly, not actually *that* long ago), I toyed with the idea of being a photographer. I also wondered whether I was sufficiently able to be a painter, writer, graphic designer, cartoonist, filmmaker, architect or dice inspector. As it turned out, I wasn't. Whilst I was discovering that I wasn't quite good enough at taking photos, I bought several SLRs for varying sums that I later regretted, as I never felt like I was doing justice to the near-endless range of things they could do. In my relative old-age, then, I've discovered conventional point-and-click cameras are rather more to my liking - I ...  Read the complete review

I'm by no means a pro (nor regular) photographer but I purchased a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55 about three years ago for those occassions where a camera is required - holidays, birthdays/weddings and nights out with my girlfriends. With this in mind, this camera fitted nicely into my budget at around £130. The requirements that I had for a digital camera were also probably different to more serious photographers - I needed it to be easy to use and lightweight (so that it fits easily into my handbag). This model ticked both boxes! How The Product Looks: To me, this is a stylish camera. It is slimline and lightweight so fits easily in even my smallest of ...  Read the complete review

I put my W55 before holidaying in Australia and found it to be very versatile. I took photos in the blazing sunshine, and the pitch black of caves (literally, you couldn't see anything til the flash went off!), I took family shots and I took shots of cricketers during the Ashes in Perth. The shots were always crisp and clear, even with the action shots with little blurring involved. It wasn't always easy to see the screen in the direct sunshine, but there is also a traditional view finder to help in such circumstances. There 7.2 mega pixels don't really make any difference when looking through your photos on the LCD screen (which is a good size at 2.5 inches) ...  Read the complete review
