Pros Good quality pictures, Long battery life, Low price
Cons Uses expensive Memory Stick media
Recommended it? Yes

It's not everyday that I'm impressed with a particular digital camera. In fact, I come across several digital cameras monthly due to the nature of my hobby. Last month, I worked with the DSC-W50 to photograph some cars for a local automobile dealer. Having already worked with the DSC-W30, I wasn't... Read full review »

Pros Better than it's more expensive predecessors. Fixes key faults.
Cons Television real-estate hucksters. Camera? No cons, really. Good value for price.
Recommended it? Yes

I've been a DSC-T1 owner for about 2.5 years now I guess, and I've had a chance to run the DSC-W50 through its paces and see how they stack up.

Pros Shockproof, waterproof, compact, takes good-quality pictures.
Cons Shutter delay (as you would expect).
Recommended it? Yes

We wanted to buy our son a camera for his eleventh birthday, and even though he is pretty responsible, he does have two little sisters, so we knew that we had to buy something that he wouldn't be anxious about sharing. We looked at the "kids" cameras, but they weren't cheap, and the reviews said... Read full review »

I held the camera a few inches off the water and snapped some shots of my daughter splashing on her float.  "Aren't you worried about dropping that?" said the gentleman next to me."  I smiled and said, "Nope," and went on to extole our new camera
