Very GOOD Sony compact digital camera

I've always liked most Sony digital cameras but I could never afford too many of them unless they were on sale. So I got this older Sony DSC-HX7V compact digital camera in very good condition to replace another Sony compact digital camera that had a much smaller zoom and didn't take really good photos. So, this Sony digital camera is really good. I quickly snapped a few indoor and outdoor photos and the photo quality is superb with good outdoor lighting! The video quality is good, as is the stereo sound. The menu system is quite thorough and pleasant. You can change the background color of your menu pages with 3 different colors. Kind! PROS: >> Good lens with 10x optical zoom >> Nice menu layout >> Excellent daytime outdoor photo quality without flash >> Excellent video quality >> Uses standard SD, SDHC or SDXC cards >> Only negligible lag shutter >> Good size rear view LCD>>Manual photography can be taken here>>Powerful built-in flash>>Has built-in GPS for those who use it [I don't use GPS for photography at all] CONS:>>Average outdoor photos Low light >> No EVF, rear LCD viewfinder only >> Burst mode can take up to 10 photos, but there is about a 20 second delay while those photos are "processed" before you can continue recording. It's not burst mode like my Canon or Panasonic Lumix digital cameras, it's just Sony. All in all, this compact digital camera from Sony will fully fill the bill for any travel I may be taking in the near future as it is the perfect digital camera. so I can take them with me when I travel. Good enough for taking family photos, photos of relatives, photos outdoors, and for the animals outside that are a bit further away, the zoom will zoom them in a bit so I can get an even better photo. I have a few extra batteries, an NP-BG1 and an extra charger so I always have at least a few fresh batteries ready to go when I travel or attend local events. Overall, I would give this compact digital camera from Sony 5 out of 5 points with a valid rating. No major problems. And it was a "very good air conditioned used camera" which I use and appreciate as I got it here at Revain.

Pros
  • Like everything before
Cons
  • Definitely bad product
