| This is the second Cybershot we have owned and continue to be impressed with. It is easy to use (point and click as I am a technophobe), compact and lightweight. The pictures we have taken so far have all been good quality and even when zooming the quality does not appear to be affected. Would definately recommend it. |
great camera

| So far, so good. Small enough to fit in pocket. Love the onscreen editing function! |

| This camera is great for still pics, they are very crisp. The sound for the camera, however, leaves much to be desired. Even up close, you can barely make out what is being said when in play-back mode. When hooked up to my TV you have to turn the TV sound way up to hear it. This was definitly disappointing. Again though, the still pics are good, I'm a nanny for 3 young kids and get great pics of them with it! |
good quality, easy to use camera

The DSC S980 is the 2nd Cybershot I've purchased. The first one lasted 4 years before it was time for an upgrade. I tested the camera on a Disney World vacation before writing this review.
The camera itself is light and compact. It lacks a view finder (great for sunny days) but compensates with an above average sized LCD screen. It runs on a series K Sony lithium ion battery (included). I got about 250 pictures on the initial charge. The camera requires a Sony memory card (not included), which is not the same size as an SD card. Accessories include photo software (not yet tested), a USB cable to connect to the computer, a video/mono audio RCA cable to connect to the TV, and a battery wall charger.
The face recognition and image stabilizer work well. The camera has a number of user friendly settings ranging from an easy mode to somewhat more advanced settings for distance and lighting. I used the movie setting once - decent picture quality, mediocre sound quality.
Overall, a great camera for the price that withstood the rigors of a Disney vacation and gave me hundreds of good pictures.
