Sony DSC-W50 review at imaging resource
Posted by Steve on May 12th, 2006
The Sony DSC-W50 digital camera has been reviewed at imaging resource. The Sony Cybershot DSC-W50 is a 6 megapixel ultra compact digital camera. It is equipped with a 3 times optical zoom and large sized 2.5 inch LCD display. With the W50 Sony introduces a greater light sensitivity, combined with color noise reduction.
The review verdict:
“It’s a very responsive camera, with low shutter lag in daylight conditions, and excellent shot to shot speeds. It also sports very good battery life, a very capable movie mode, and excellent download speed. […] The bright 2.5-inch color LCD monitor is excellent for framing and reviewing shots, and the overall design and layout of the W50 is user-friendly and hassle-free. If you’re looking for a good “take anywhere” camera with great versatility and good color and tonality, the Sony DSC-W50 deserves a close look. […] We suggest that you ignore the ISO 800 and 1000 settings on the camera, as the image quality there is really marginal even for snapshot-size prints, but if you look at the Sony W50 as an ISO 400 camera, it competes very strongly, making it a Dave’s Pick in its category.”
