| I absolutely LOVE LOVE LOVE this camera! It takes great pictures no matter what the conditions! I purchased a 2gig memory for it and can take tons of great pics and video. The battery lasts a really long time and its easy to charge. The charger doesn't have a cord so I leave it plugged in the kitchen and just put in the battery every few days. The different settings & menus are easy to get to and easy to see even without my glasses on that big screen. I cannot say enough good things about this camera. If you need a pociet sized good quality camera, buy this! |
Tiny, light, and great photos

I already had a small 7 megapixel camera - a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 when I began looking for something smaller. My current camera was the size of a pack of cigarettes, but it was bulky in my purse. I wanted something smaller and lighter. Also, I was going to Hawaii and I wanted something I could snorkel with. My current camera didn't have any matching underwater case to go with it. The DSC-T20 does!
I was already used to having a high quality camera with me all the time, with very fast response to pressing the button. So to be honest even though the DSC-T20 was higher on the megapixel range, I was at first a bit annoyed by its response time. It takes about a half second before it gets the green focus rectangle and lets you take a picture. It might not sound like a lot, but when you're taking pictures on the fly, it can really get to you. With the DSC-P200 I could literally point, click and move the camera again in one movement and the picture would be great. With this one, there was a noticeable lag between wanting to take the picture and having it taken.
Now, that being said, it is SO nice to have this light, easy to carry camera with me. The other one was small - but heavy. This one is much smaller and lighter. I could carry it around with me on my wrist as I went from place to place and it was hardly noticeable at all.
I really liked the fact that the whole front is shielded by a sliding panel, and the camera turns auto-on when you manually slide that panel. It made it very easy to pop it on and off again.
On the other hand, I don't like how they set up the menus. On the old one, a spinning wheel let you instantly switch between camera and video. This was very handy. On this DSC-T20, you have to go paging through a menu in order to move from one to the other. Quite a pain. You can pop between macro mode and flash mode with the easy buttons on the face, which is good and the same - but for some reason the buttons are harder to use. The DSC-P200 had a slightly larger center button, slightly larger side buttons and the buttons were separate pieces. This DSC-T20 has just a single circular unit that is hard to move.
The images seem great. I've used it for large landscapes, tiny origami, faces, and everything in between.
Still, all in all, I am very glad that I got the DSC-T20. Its small size was perfect, and it is great to have an underwater-capable camera. If you want to see photos from this camera, I took over 1,000 photos in Hawaii on my LisaShea.com site. Enjoy! |
Great small camera with big abilities.

| The image clarity, detail, and color with this camera is amazing. I used it Cancun, and the images could be in a major magazine. Extremely satisfied. I did not see the negatives I read about in other's reviews. |

This is the most fun camera I've ever had. It's easy to use and does a lot of amazing things for such a little camera.
The pictures are clear, the shot is taken immediately without a delay,
it's easy to erase, easy to change the amount of light going into the lense to brighten up a cloudy day, and the lense cover/on off switch was a great idea.
The color pink makes it easy to find in my purse, and the weight makes it so I can take it everywhere easily. I'm going to Paris and Rome in November and it'll be very convenient to get great shots.

Cute camera, becomes very cute once you get familiar with it. It is a good machine also, works great and does many things. However, I can tell sometime the pics come out blurry. The best is in regular lighting. If it's indoor or dark, use the flash and u'll have nice pictures. Or you will end up with a "painting- like" feel for your pictures. I can not tell if this is a ad or a no so bad part, but I don't know if any other camera will do better.
Other than that, it is loaded with cool features and believe me it is cute. I travelled to Europe and everybody has a type of Sony but none this kind. And I can tell the way they were looking at my camera.
It takes great movies , good quality, good sound. I also dropped it on the concrete sidewalk. Te picture was very very blurry. I turned off and on again and everything came back perfect.
I have this camera for few weeks and so far so good in GOOD LIGHTING ONLY> I didn't play with ISO settings yet, but I think it won't work too great.
Fits easy in any pocket, doesn't scratch or get dirty, easy to tunr on and take cool pics. Lots of them, everywhere...
