Sony Cybershot DSC-T9 6MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Image Stabilization Zoom Reviews

Summary: Nice Camera, but breaks easily
Comment: This was a nice camara until it reached 2 years of use. An error message came up, focus seems broke down. Camara was not dropped or anything. I searched online, and found a lot people having same problem, some saying by hitting the side of it might get rid of the error message, but it didn't work for me. Don't buy if you looking for something that you can use for a longer time period.

Summary: Don't Do It!
Comment: I have had this camera for a year an a half. In that time it has taken many photos for me, most of them good, the rest blurry or overexposed. (blurry even when using the stabilizer. It's a big problem). My main problem with this quarrel is that about a year ago, a little bump caused some screws to come out of the camera and then the casing actually began to separate. Now, Sony took it back under warranty, fixed it, and returned it. A couple months later, a couple other screws went missing for no apparent reason. Again, sent back, returned fixed. Now, it's started doing this really annoying vibrating thing sometimes when I'm trying to take photos, which causes them to come out very, very blurry. I have no idea why it does this, and am currently shopping for a new camera. I heard the newer Cybershots are better, but am cautious to buy Sony again because this experience was so bad. I shouldn't need to buy a new camera after having this one for less than a year and a half, even less when considering it spent about two months of that being repaired. Oh, another thing, the flipdoor will come open in your pocket or purse, and waste battery. Luckily, the battery life is good, but it's still irritating and can't be good for the camera.

Don't do it, find another camera.

Summary: Dissapointing
Comment: Hi,

Ok, so the camera was AMAZING the first two days until I dropped it into the toilet in its case. Now, obviosuly this is my fault. It dried out and I brought it in to a camera specialist who said it was fine but I feel the pictures were not as clear. So now it is just sitting here on my desk and I can't use my $400 camera. But the camera was great...i don't recommend buying this porduct online. You can't send it or take it back.

Summary: Good but beware of limitations
Comment: I have had this camera for 8+ months and used it extensively. I have had plenty of experience with many other digital and film cameras.

Its main pros:
+ small size (internal zoom helps)
+ good looks
+ silent operation

Cons:
- very noisy images, smudged by the camera's noise reduction
- very bad and overly strong flash, overwhelms subject indoors
- useless red-eye technology
- relatively short battery life

Basically, this is a cool party cam. For most images, esp. indoors, I need to edit with Photoshop or some other program to eliminate red eyes and fix exposure due to flash issues. The images cannot be sharpened (unlike say a Canon) because of the aggressive smudging from the noise reduction algorithm.

I like this camera but many a time I wish I had bought a Canon digital elph instead.

Summary: Awesome Camera!!!!
Comment: I just love this camera! The quality of the photos and videos are excellent. The battery life has never been a problem at all. It's very easy to store in it's dock. The videos are great and so convenient that I find myself taking more videos with this camera than with my video camera.
