📷 Sony Cybershot DSC-T500 Digital Camera - 10.1MP, 5x Optical Zoom, Super Steady Shot Image Stabilization Review

We just tested the new T500 on the arrival of our new baby. Both the stills and the HD videos captured by the camera were great. The camera performance is excellent. The touchscreen is intuitive, the options are plentiful (if you're willing to tinker with them), and the output quality is excellent. are fairly quick to drag and drop (admittedly mostly due to video use) and the included dock is required to connect the camera to your Mac (or PC).
