Review on Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W230 12 MP Digital Camera With 4X Optical Zoom And Super Steady Shot Image Stabilization (Dark Red) by Michael Hughes

Revainrating 4 out of 5

LOVE the burst function

After buying a $500+ Olympus camera and being very frustrated with the digital quality (although I've had good luck with Olympus before) , I decided it would be better to have a small camera that I could fit in my pocket to take all those unmissable shots. The best thing about this camera is the burst mode. If you have the normal camera mode, green camera on the watch face. Go to the menu and set the shutter to burst. Then you can take 4-8 consecutive photos at the touch of a button. Then I can get great shots of my kids and my uncooperative husband, the first shot always seems so difficult and then they lose quite a bit for the perfect shot. Finish it off with my Creative Memories Memory Manager software (HUGE bang for your buck in photo storage and editing). I can clone one image onto another and get a near perfect photo. I did this with a group of men (who we all know don't cooperate) and got a great end result. I also did this with my daughter's baseball team and got a great shot of the kids. The fun features are worth the price and it's great to slip into your pocket or purse.

Pros
  • Best in its niche
Cons
  • Not sure
