Bottom Line:

Comments about Sony Sony Red Cyber-Shot Digital Camera:

I purchased this camera about 2 weeks ago, and its performance is good. I like the HD 1080i, the pictures are fantastic. In the sunlight the LCD is not very bright and a small problem in low light, however, if you stay within the flash range the picture are pretty good. I would recommend for a point and shoot camera.

The best point-and-shoot camera can get

Bottom Line:

Comments about Sony Sony Red Cyber-Shot Digital Camera:

I've had Sony DSC-W50 until loosing it. So the situation made me search a new point-and-shoot camera. Being satisfied with all Sony products I had so far I turned to DSC-W170 that seemed to offer more functions than its predecessor. The only noticeable improovement in my opinion is shorter lag times between the shots. Otherwise I don't see much difference between the pictures I've got with the old and new cameras. If you are really looking for face detection, nice optical zoom, good pictures in low light, other advanced features better find a digital SLR. This is a good point-and-shoot camera, but still it is just a point-and-shoot camera.
