Sony Cybershot DSCP100 5.1MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom Reviews

Summary: Amazing little camera !
Comment: Our job requires us to take photos almost everyday, so we have tried and worked with many digital cameras in the past years. We bought the DSCP100 like a year ago, and we have been more than pleased with it. The size of the camera is great, the quality of the body is amazing. Battery life is great too. It takes very good pictures, and starts working immediately, so you will not loose that special scene.... Because all of the above, we simply can't stop using the little DSCP100. Sony got it right with this camera !

Summary: beware the floaters visible in landscape and sky backgrounds . . .
Comment: The Sony dscp100 is such an appealing camera - small, easy to operate - that my shutterbug wife ordered a second one.

The reason to order a second one: little black dots began appearing in both viewfinder and photos - in compositions that had a light background such as a sky. So she found a new old-stock model - both have the Zeiss lens - and was happy for a few weeks. Now the second one has the dots. They resemble human eye floaters. Yes; we're sending the seond one back for warranty work.

Summary: Awesome little camera
Comment: I love this camera, I've had it for almost 3 years and haven't had a problem yet. I still have the original battery in it and it still charges great. It's a perfect camera for first-time digital users because while it does have a lot of different settings, its easy to figure out and they dont get in the way. It also has given me a basic understanding of other camera's, I use my friends camera's and can usually figure out how to use them. It's easy to take wherever because it fits easily into a purse or pocket. I love this camera, it was definitely a great buy.

Summary: Outstanding Camera
Comment: Reasons to get this camera:
-- It is durable (it has a metal frame)
-- It should last a long time
-- It has a good resolution
-- The MPEG Videos are not limited to a particular length
-- The videos record sound
-- It focuses automatically (easy to use)
-- Uploading photos is quick (no tedious software like with Kodak)

I gave it five stars because it was nearly perfect. The one flaw (at least with my camera) is that sometimes the screws fall out. Fortunately, it is not a serious problem because you can tighten the loose screws, and easily order more from Sony if you lose any of them.

Summary: Decent camera but...
Comment: I bought the Sony Cybershot DSCP100 5.1 MP Camera after much researching on the internet about digital cameras because it was my first one.

I like the size and shape of the camera. It can easily fit in a small purse or pocket, which is nice for the price.

However the pictures turn out blurry unless in bright sunlight or with a flash, where I was previously not used to using one.
I also took this camera on a long backpacking trip into the Grand Canyon and it must have gotten bumped, though i don't remember doing such, because now the zoom occassionally has issue coming in and out.

Also I did not find the shutter lag to be very quick.
