Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50


$400.00 Released February, 2008

Product Shot 1 The Pros:Decently priced for the features (15x optical zoom, 3" tiltable display). Fairly lightweight despite its sturdy, durable build. 3" LCD display is tiltable and offers great clarity in a number of situations.

The Cons:Really limited internal memory--15MB. Built-in lithium-ion battery has very limited life. Zoom lever is terrible for fine-tuning zoom levels.

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50 is part of the company's point-and-shoot line of cameras and features a 8.1-megapixel Super HAD CCD along with a Carl Zeiss 15x optical zoom (30x digital zoom) lens. It comes equipped with many of the standard Cyber-shot DSC components such as Smile Shutter and Super SteadyShot technolgy as well as Face Detection (which automatically controls flash, exposure, white balance and focus settings for accurate colouring).

Susan: #sony_cyber_shot_dsc_h50 This review says it has a built-in battery. Where? I have owned this camera for several years and I absolutely love it. I have no knowledge of a built-in lithium-ion battery. Also, this article says it is a 8.0 megapixel. The Sony DSC-H50 is a 9.0 megapixel.

I would recommend this camera to everyone. It's the best camera I have ever owned and, I have owned several top name brand cameras, only to find I go right back to my Sony DSC-H50. Nov 5, 12
