Why I Love This Camera

byking_sal May 29, 2006
34 Helpfuls 35 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
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 »

Impressive camera, improves on a great line...

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. The DSC-T1 broke new ground with its deck-of-cards form factor, and, I must say, despite my aging Nikon Coolpix 995's vastly superior indoor flash... Read full review »

Canon Powershot A3300 IS

byHoward_Creech Jul 16, 2011
57 Helpfuls 58 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Easy to use, Very good pictures, and HD video
Cons Slight tendency toward over-exposure, can’t use the zoom in video capture mode.
Recommended it? Yes

Canon introduced several new digicams at the 2011 Consumer Electronics Show, but the compact Canon PowerShot A3300 IS (which replaces the very popular A3100 IS) may be the most interesting of the lot. At first glance, the A3300 IS doesn’t look like the culmination of almost 200 years of... Read full review »

Cons They don't have variety of colors.

I have a Cannon Digital Camera and I really like it. I think that Cannon is one of the companies that makes the best cameras, i bought a Cannon digital camera because my photography teacher told us that Cannon and Nikon are the best brands. I love how the pictures come out; the quality. The thing... Read full review »
