Review on πŸ“· Review: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W230 Digital Camera - 12MP, 4x Optical Zoom, Super Steady Shot (Dark Blue) by Matheus Buck

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Can't believe how much storage this little camera takes!

The camera is nice, but with some flaws. The first is that I couldn't use my old SD card from a broken Panasonic, and the "Duo" cards this one uses cost half as much as a camera for the same GB! I liked the intuitive controls, but the icons on the camera wheel were so tiny that they would be difficult to work with. Also, the font size in the booklet that comes with the kit is very small. (Do they really have anything against people with bifocals?) It's also disappointing that the brochure doesn't explain how to transfer photos to a computer. (I tried it alongside my paints and it seemed like most cameras use their weird cable that has a release button on the bottom of the connector that goes into the camera. They should have told us that!) I was disappointed that I had to remove the battery from the camera every time I changed it and one review said it would mean having to reset the time and date every time. Leave it.

Pros
  • Robust design
Cons
  • Without automatic control
