Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX1 ... Duo, MS PRO-HG Duo - silver / The DSCWX1 W series Cyber-shot camera delivers superior image quality thanks to an "Exmor R" CMOS sensor and "BIONZ" imaging processor. The "Exmor R" CMOS sensor is high-speed and approximately twice as sensitive as conventional CMOS sensors and boasts 50% less noise than previous versions. The WX1 also features Sony's super wide-angle 24 mm (35 mm equivalent) fast f/2.4 "G Lens" for superior image quality. In addition, the integrated sweep panorama mode allows you to capture the full picture every time!

To achieve its delightfully compact form, Sony slimmed the WX1 way down, sparing no effort to reduce dimensions to a bare minimum. But don't let its small size fool you. This lithe little Cyber-shot boasts outstanding operability thanks to controls logically positioned and easily identifiable for maximum ease-of-use.

All Sony Cyber-shot cameras feature a high-speed "BIONZ" imaging processor that delivers brilliant, lifelike images. High resolution, natural color, smooth tonal gradation, minimal noise and fast processing - a potent combination for photos as rich and vivid as your imagination.

 ... drawback here is that it takes like Double that time for the Buffer to process and clear the images before you can shot again. Frustrating at times But a Small price to pay for such capability though. The 'Sweep Panoramic' mode has been much talked about by Sony. Everyone kind of knows how it works by now. It's the only function I find that I can't really Rave about. Thus far. For me the results it produces are...ok. I find the images though Wide are way to Squashed for my liking. I found if i turned the camera Vertic...more

Premium Review Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX1: Sony WX1 ROCKS !! (677 words)

Ok. Well I feel compelled to write this brief review as I have had the opportunity of having the WX1 for a few days now. So far REALLY IMPRESSED by this camera. First. I was surprised. It's small. Surprisingly Small That's a plus as it allows for discretion when you don't want to make it obvious that you have a camera with you. It's mobile phone size . Actually lengh wise it's Slimmer even. Width is understandably thicker though. The 24mm lens is really handy. The w300 had a 35mm wide end and this was annoying as it meant a lot 'stepping back' or 'clipping off' of scenes...Not so with the WX1. It's 24mm 'G' lens is Wide and believe me you will ...  Read the complete review

Premium Review Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX1: Sony buzzes its way to being returned (349 words)

This is a great looking camera... and I anticipated good things. You see Sony had been bragging about their new Exmor R sensor and how it performed so well in low light. It also was going to deliver some cool party features and HD video. Well, they were right about the Exmor R. It does perform well. The camera has lots of scene modes. One of them is called Twilight mode, where it takes six photos without flash and combines them into one. In my test it worked very well. There is also a neat thing called Sweep Panorama. Normally when you want to take a panoramic photo (you know, the long thin photo of a landscape) you have to take plenty of photos, then put them ...  Read the complete review
