This camera has been wonderful since I got it. It took me some real long hours researching the details before I found it here. Here is some of the data I found out so maybe it can help the shoppers that are unsure of its stats (I found these on the web):
Resolution: 10 Megapixel
Optical Zoom: 4x
Focal Length: 35mm-140mm
Lens Aperature: F3.5-F4.6
LCD size: 230,000
Onboard Memory: 15MB*
Movie resolution: 640x480 VGA
Battery life: about 225 shots (depends on flash and other uses)
Dimensions: 3.8" X 2.4" X 0.6"
Weight: 126 grams (4.44 oz)
* this will give you about 1 photo at max resolution (maybe 2). Buy a memory stick!
What you find in the box:
* Cyber-shot DSC-T77 camera
* NP-BD1 rechargeable lithium-ion battery
* Battery charger
* Station plate (for the optional camera dock)
* Paint pen
* Wrist strap
* USB + A/V cable
* CD-ROM featuring Cyber-shot software, Cyber-shot Handbook and Step-up Guide
* 55 page basic manual (printed) plus 171 page full manual (on CD-ROM)
Now for the review: Realize that this has a very small lens physically. The amount of light that can come into that lens when shooting is a good deal less than a 35mm DSLR camera. That being said there are those that argue that this is not a "true" 10 megapixel camera. All I can say is that the photos are excellent. You may have to use the flash a bit more than with a standard 35mm camera due to the smaller lens size.
The uploading is very easy. Its a Sony so the included software is very well made. Easy to use and intuitive.
All in all a very nice pocket camera to take everywhere with you on your vacations.
Thank you for reading my review.

| Still new but have used quite a bit. It's a great camera -- does everything I need and more. Photo quality excellent and the camera is intelligent enough to keep me from screwing up the drill. Well worth the price. |

I bought this camera for Christmas, but I am just getting around to writing my review now. I love it and would highly recommend it to anyone. Rather than repeat what many reviews here already say, I will just highlight some of the pros and cons....
Pros:
- Very small! Easily fits in pocket
- Not slow at all
-Easy to use and figure out
- Works best in bright natural light
Cons:
- Lens is in upper right hand corner (not center) , so if someone not familiar with the camera is taking the pic, you usually get a pic of their finger.
- Proprietary battery and memory stick are a major drawback since you must buy from Sony. Would prefer the more universal SD card.
-Pics not so great in low light
- When you do need the flash it is blinding.
- Slide lens opener is a bit awkward since the camera is small.
Overall all though, I'm just nitpicking. For the most part I love this camera, I just want to help others make an informed decision. |

This camera is an improvement of the T70 which is a great camera,
they made it thinner and lighter it is truely a pocket camera.
With more mega pixels and a 4x zoom this camera is hard to beat. |
