Digital Cameras Photo Reviews of Sony Cybershot DSC-T1 5MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom
Customer Review: A real sweet spot in the digital camera world
Summary: 5 Stars
I have owned numerous digital cameras over the years, but the Sony T1 is the one I would pick if I could only have one. It is compact, turns on easily, intuitively, and quickly. Good battery life. High picture quality (at least for a non-pro camera). Slips into your pocket. No annoying retracting/extending lens. A great lens (Carl Zeiss is the kind used on Hasselblad cameras). 3x Optical zoom. Very large LCD screen - and it is VISIBLE in daylight. More features than most will ever use, but there if you need them. The only shortcoming is the small flash - it's only good out to about 5-6 feet - but hey, if you're further away than that for a picture of a person, you're too far away! This is a great everyday camera - I carry mine with me all the time, which makes it a camera that actually gets used, rather than just collecting dust in the closet.Customer Review: This is a Great camera!
Summary: 5 Stars
I read some of the negative reviews about this camera and I was reluctant to purchase it, even though I had read the good reviews. When I went to the store to see and test the camera, I was amazed that the picture quality was so good - and I knew the people writing the bad reviews were somehow wrong. I picked the camera up in the store, without reading any instruction manual, and took a picture in the store, which was then printed out for me on a HP 145. The picture was so clear... that sold me right then. I knew then that all I had to do was read and work with the camera a little and I was set. Have since taken the camera on vacation and I love it. My pictures overall are 100% better than I have ever taken and the fun and ease of this camera is great...not to mentin the wow factor if you like new little cameras.Customer Review: Problems Solved!

This is a follow up review to provide critical data not available at the time of my comprehensive review on March 5th.I experienced only two problems with this camera. One is redeye, and the other is the difficulty of emailing the 2MB files generated by a 5 megapixel camera.
The solution to both problems is a photo album product like Picasa. Turn off the redeye reduction on the camera, and use the redeye correction feature in your photo album software. Do this with any digital camera because disabling redeye reduction on the camera will eliminate the pause before image capture and will also leave pupils nice and large.
Picasa displays the pictures as thumbnails. I simply highlight the ones I want to email and Picasa will automatically shrink them to about 100K each and send them in a single email.
Customer Review: Beautiful Shots in a Beautiful Package
Summary: 5 Stars
This little jewel is fantastic! It is state of the art Sony design and takes excellent shots with the Zeiss lens! I was attracted to the small size but big features of this camera. It will fit easily in your pocket and the dock is small and easy to store if you travel. Sure, Sony only includes a 32meg memory stick but hey do you blame them? I bought the 256meg and it will take 100 pics at 5 megapixs. The 2.5 in display is fantastic for quick views. And the camera allows you to use fully auto features for ease of use or there are many custom features for those who so choose. The color is superb. I use Microsoft picture it software and never have to edit color. I would highly recommend this to someone looking for great features in an attractive sleek package.Customer Review: Look guys, ultra portables have limitations!

I own 6 Sony digital cameras - P50(2 MP), S75(3 MP), 77A(4 MP), V1(5 MP), T1(5 MP) & 828(8MP). To get over all the T1 technical limitations, here are my suggestions:1. SWITCH off the sharpening tool. This reduces digital noise tremendously.
2. Go to www.neatimage.com & get this Noise Reduction Software for free. It really really helps! For example, when I use ISO 800 for my V1 or 828, this software reduces the noise so significantly , it looked like I took it at ISO 100. Try it & see. Freeeee....!
3. All NIGHT photos should be taken at ISO 200 or 400 with the shapening tool off & fixed by the Neat-Image (as mentioned above).
