Sony Cybershot DSC S60 Digital Camera Review

Review:

With a clear attention on performance, Sony’s DSC S60 digital camera brings refreshing changes in the standards for a model digital camera, in terms of speed, quality and battery life. The Sony DSC-S60 produces amazingly perfect pictures, using its 4.1 Mega pixel engine, and the other extra features include an efficient 3X optical zoom with Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens, 32 Megabytes memory, and a big 2-inch LCD monitor.

Sony was very thoughtful in including Real Imaging Processor technology, to provide better efficiency, faster movie making and an extended battery life of almost 120 images, while installing two "AA" type batteries and around 550 shots, while using a NIMH rechargeable battery.A patented Stamina technology assures you extra camera performance at an affordable running cost. Pictures taken using this digital camera are stunningly beautiful and absolutely in correct focus. Sony DSC S60 offers a really smart auto-focusing and auto/manual exposure system, which urges the camera to make necessary adjustments to capture satisfactory images even in difficult lighting situations. There are several preset auto options available with the camera for quickly selecting the best setting for the shooting conditions.

Incorporating the best features of a digital camera, Sony has assured its customers an efficient system with a beautiful new design, very large LCD, a good manual exposure control and the extra feature of Cyber-shot Station compatibility. 3X Optical Zoom helps you frame your shots for better digital pictures. And Sony's highly sophisticated Precision Digital Zoom provides you an extra 2X magnification, without the rough edges of other designs, resulting in smoother and clearer pictures. By intelligently evaluating 5 different focus sectors of the frame, Sony's Multi-Point AF system can purposefully focus on the subject and avoid accidentally focusing on the background at any cost.

You can always capture images without a flash memory card with its 32 MB internal memory. Though this is not sufficient for an active photographer, you can always use the slot for optional Memory Stick, or Memory Stick PRO media (of any capacity), and further the 32MB of internal memory can be copied to optional external Memory Stick media. Use the optional CSS-SA Cybershot Station camera dock to transfer your images and recharging the DSC-S60's battery. It is all so easy to connect the camera to your computer to transfer all those pictures.

Recommendation:

The Sony DSC-S60 digital camera is very light, rightly priced compact camera, which is sure to serve beginners with its easy controls and features. DSC-S60 produces high quality still shots that make it a perfect entry-level compact camera. Sony DSC-S60 is significantly faster and shoots better video clips than any other competing brands of the same configuration. Plainly speaking, Sony DSC-60 is an exceptional camera, capable of providing immense consumer satisfaction and high quality results.
