Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200

I used to own a dcybershot-u a really tiny 2mp camera. But when this was no longer enough i needed to upgrade to a more powerful versitile camera. I did some researh as to what cameras were out at the time and what they could or could not do. Choices are pretty much the same, all having varied features but mainly the same, the only differences showing up were the brand, price, and designs. So based on these i hunted high and low on the internet to find my ideal match, and i found it the Sony DSC P200. So i went off trying to find the best deal on it. But just before i purchased this super little camera in black i found a red version! Which i immediately ...  Read the complete review

I bought the Black limited edition version. Although the designs are essentially identical, the contrast of the controls on the back make them MUCH clearer. The shiny black finish is also "V" cool! Firstly the Battery life - 3hr 20mins for a Completely Dead to Full charge. Then theres a battery moniter on the LCD that tells you exactly how many minutes of use are left! Apparently a full charge gives ~200mins of usage - thats 1 min for every 1 min charge. in picture review mode, it says ~350mins - pretty good! Second - Ease of use. Theres what can only be described as a "simple mode" - depicted by a green camera on the mode dial. ...  Read the complete review

This is great quality for a compact camera. Even now, I find it has a couple of settings (spot metering and a f/2.8 aperture) that better my DSLR! (A DSLR is one of those big flashy cameras with interchangeable lenses, for those that don't know.) At 7.2MP you can take holiday snapshots that can still produce quality reproductions and enlargements. There are a range of different "scene" modes and I like the way that they're all navigated from one option on the selection wheel, rather than clogging up the wheel by putting them on there (although it took me a while to realise they were there - should have read the manual more). There's also a ...  Read the complete review

I owned a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 for nearly two years during which time it experienced a thorough testing, and travelled nearly 60,000 miles. It is light and compact, but its 7.2Mega pixels provides a high quality picture, both for still shots, and video. One of the things I liked best about this model was the big (2 inch) LCD screen that was reasonably easy to see even in bright sunlight. Other great features include the zoom that gives a better quality picture than you might expect for a camera of this price. There is very little I can say against this camera, but in the interests of a balanced review, here are a couple of quibbles. You ...  Read the complete review
