Takes great pictures for a little compact camera. It even takes good short videos although you have to press a few menu items on the screen to get to that feature. The screen does get the fingerprints but I only really notice them when the camera is off. It's not an issue when reviewing pic's on the screen. You won't be dissappointed.

It takes great pictures and is the perfect size to carry in my purse. The touch screen gets dirty easily but it is easy to function. The screen is a good size. Easy to share your pics.

Sony Camera's sucks.

I have had this sony camera for a year now and I was very dissapointed witht the quality. Picture mostly have an orange glow. Forget about the steady shot it sucks. If you are shaking one bit the picture is not clear. That also goes for the person in the shot if it is moving than you can forget it. If you want my advice buy a cannon. They have better reputation and quality.

This is my first camera ever. It is actually very simple like any other camera, i guess. The cool features are: The touch screen of course!, also it has a smile detector, which waits until the person is smiling and takes the picture by itself. It also comes with a cable that lets you watch the photos on an HD TV and you can also watch videos, which is so much fun. The pictures come out great an so do the videos. Its a very good camera for first time users i think. It is also very stylish which is always a plus!! Hope this helps!

Touchscreen A Pain
- Reviewd on:

I previously had a Canon PowerShot (SD450), and I thought it was time to upgrade. However, I returned it after playing around with it and having no tolerance for the touchscreen interface.
Cons:
-- Touchscreen was difficult to use and annoying. It would not always register when I tried selecting something, so I would often have to touch the screen more than once. It requires going through so many clicks and menus to do simple tasks, which made my older Canon camera with normal buttons seem much faster in comparison. I also did not want to carry around the pen for the touchscreen, and using my fingers would leave fingerprints and be even less effective.
-- The lens does not seem properly protected from my fingers when holding the camera so that it is easy to put fingerprints on the lens, which I would assume could decrease the quality of photos.
-- The 3 inch LCD screen includes wasted space since it is widescreen and it doesn't make sense for everyone to shoot in widescreen. Therefore, the point of the touchscreen to free up more space for the LCD display is meaningless for most, as there are black bars on each side of the photo.
-- Need to purchase separate cable to view HD quality photos on tv.
-- Tiny zoom lever.
Pros:
-- Easy to understand manual
-- Small and thin. A true ultracompact.
-- Auto scene selection mode seems like a useful feature.
The cons listed above, combined with further research I found giving other compact cameras better marks, made me return this. I just bought a Panasonic FX150 after a lot of research, and I hope this one is better!
