Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H20/B 10.1 MP Digital Camera with 10x Optical Zoom and Super Steady Shot Image Stabilization
Customer Review: Absolutely a winner for a Point & Point Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
I never knew buying a P&S camera was so difficult. I've tested the Fuji x10, Kodak Z915, Samsung SL620, Samsung SL50, and a few under the $99 mark and none of this compares to my DSC-H20. My original budget was between the $100 - $200 mark but as it turns out I just can't get what I want in that price range.
My biggest complains with P&S cams is low light shots. It can be simply as in a room with low light and most of the cameras I tried could not get this right on the first attempt. Exposures are either not right or comes out not focused. With the H20, low lights are simply gorgeous and gets it done without all the hoops.
If you're looking for a keeper in the P&S market, I can say spend the money and get this one. What good is the saving if you won't be able to enjoy it, right?
Customer Review: Replacement Camera
Summary: 5 Stars
This camera replaced a Canon Powershot. After looking at the reviews on the comparable Canon, I chose this camera. Since my last camera was about 5 yrs old, the technology has improved so in comparison this camera is far superior so I can't really judge it against my old camera. I feel like it does take pictures faster although I typically have not used it for action shots. Pictures are crystal clear for the most part. Only blur I have found is with zooming out to the max.
Only con is what others have commented which is the need to remove the lens cap. Its a small thing and the camera will tell you if have you forgotten to remove the lens cap.
Really enjoying it and would buy another one should the need arise.
Customer Review: Best point & shoot I have used
Summary: 5 Stars
Having now used this camera for a period of time, I can say that it satisfies the needs of the amateur photographer more than any other camera I have owned. Because of its size and shape, I no longer have to worry about getting my finger in front of the lens, yet it is very lightweight and portable. Although it does not have quite the telephoto range of the competitive Nikon, it has a clearer lens. I think that within a price range, the longer the telephoto, the less the clarity. I recently used the macro function to photograph some objects about 5/8ths of an inch in size. The camera did a commendable job. All in all, I am very satisfied with the performance of the camera in a variety of situations.Customer Review: Excellent videos
Summary: 5 Stars
Camera has excellent videos (5 stars)which use the 10.1 x optical zoom. I compared it to canon sx 110 is. It has fallen three times since I bought it - no problems- (had the manual lens cover on each time). The picture are little iffy ( 4 star), esp I have noticed some out of focus ones when using io mode. The flash in the IO mode sometimes gets confused. It has 3 god pics in every 5 pics taken. But the good ones are beyond comparison. Not bad - but room for improvement. Pictures were better on the canon where every 4/5 were excellent focus on auto mode. Colors are excellent when in focus. Flash recharge time / battery life is good. I am using mark II pro duo sony 8 gb card.Customer Review: DSC-H20
Summary: 5 Stars
This camera has magnificent picture qyality along with speedy performance. I was searching for a megazoom camera that is also compact and i've compared many before i came to conclusion on buying this one. I've compared this camera with the Canon SX200IS and the Panasonic ZS3. With the 10x zoom, i was able to get a clean close up shot of the person on stage in a concert. This is the most bang for the buck camera you can get. With the other models, it might be a little bit more compact but is it really worth, on average, $100 more for something that has very similar performance but just smaller in size? This camera definately made me discover my hobby in photography.
