Sony DSC-W800 Digital Compact Camera (20.1 MP, 5x Zoom, 2.7 LCD, 720p HD, 23 mm Sony G Lens) - Black

I searched everywhere for a compact camera that would take decent quality photos. This Sony DSCW800 is an excellent camera. It measures approximately 9.5 x 5.5 cm and has a nice weight to it. The screen measures 5.5 x 4.5 and the digital settings are very easy to follow onscreen. I love the look and feel of it and the quality of pics are awesome. The only draw back is the camera comes with very basic set-up instructions. Detailed instructions can be found easily on the Sony website The camera has a very impressive battery life. I average 20/30pics per week and I don't need to charge this for weeks at a time. Here's a couple of pics. I hope you find my review helpful UPDATE: I would also like to add that this camera has an impressive battery life. I average 20/30 photos per week and only need to charge this every few weeks.

My last cheap digital camera was a Sony and it lasted for years. This has a larger screen, which is slightly grainy, but once loaded on the computer the photos are superb. There are a number of options on the menu to increase quality to maximum. For me, it is ideal for general shots for keeping in touch with family and friends on Facebook. Very lightweight. The macro function is automatic. Had no trouble in low lighting, and the flash seems well distributed giving a nice overall shot. You have to disconnect a lead from the charger to download onto your computer, and you must also download Sony's own downloading programme (which is a bit basic) as per the instructions given. The video aspect is fairly good for general purposes. Does not come with a memory card or protective bag. I used the old memory card from my previous camera. A quality pocket camera which delivers what you'd expect for the price.

Excellent little camera for the cost. Have used it a number of times and have absolutely no issues with it. Pictures are crystal clear given that they are 20m pixels. The only downside I have experienced (as with all digital cameras) is the size of each picture/file - in this case typically over 7mb which can cause a bit of an issue if trying to email them. I use it to take pictures of items in a charity shop in France (Fripaffaires) so tend to reduce the size before uploading them. It's small and easily fits into a pocket so from that point of view is easier to handle than my DLSR. Overall, very pleased.

Delivery took less than 24 hours. An ideal camera for the technophobe you just point and click for excellent results and the high resolution 20Mb means that you can blow up small portions without losing definition. Although when I installed one SD card the camera had difficulty recognising it but was OK with a new 8G card bought separately but then after only a few hours when it was turned on it tried to focus and was unable to close the lens and jammed !! but I contacted Amazon and they've arranged a replacement - I hope the new one will be trouble free and the original was a one-off faulty camera. The service from Amazon was first class - the replacement arrived within 24 hours and so far it's working perfectly. Update 4th Dec 2016 : No problems at all so the initial glitch with the faulty camera was a one off problem. The replacement has been perfect.

I was looking for a new digital camera to take with me on journeys, and this seemed to fit the bill! Pros: Great for outdoors, photos are very crisp and vibrant. Small and compact, easy to take out and about. Easy to function, and no complicated menus/buttons to worry about, just press and go. Easy to transfer images from the camera to my PC. Cons: The battery life could be better, I find myself charging it a lot after not using it for a while. The camera quality isn't as great indoors/with artificial light. I find myself not using the zoom function a lot as it diminishes the quality of the photo. All in all, it's a good camera for the price you pay. You are not going to get a better camera unless you up your price range a lot.

This camera only lasted 18 months before the software packed up. It is in for repair which may be OK if the price is right. It started off being a good camera but ended up being a nightmare. My advice is to try a Nikon A10 which has , so far , more robust software . Nikon are camera makers and it shows up in the software . I have replaced the Sony with an A10 so we will see how long this one lasts. The Nikon is more expensive but I hope it will be worth it . I don't believe in all these insurance policies you can but to extend the warranty . I have bought many things that have lasted and lasted . Had I paid for insurance on all thses it woulde have cast a fortune by now. I do not recommend this camera , there is something lacking in the software department, it is not robust enough. I was a programmer once upon a time and can tell the signs of lacking robustness. DO NOT BUY THIS CAMERA , BUY A NIKON OR A CANON . 12th Sept 2019 Having complained to Amazon about this camera ( which was 18months old when the software packed up ) and told them that warranties are not legally binding and that you can expect a Sony camera to last much longer than 18 months they sent me a brand new camera for no charge. WELL DONE AMAZON . Also I had sent the broken camera to the Manchester repair company using the Amazon system whereby they reimburse you for the postage and the return postage if you decide the repair cost is not worth it . In the event I had the broken camera returned and in perfect working order for no charge. WELL DONE AMAZON. The fault was , in my opinion, was the software because the new software on the returned camera had had it's date changed . This indicates that the software had been reinstalled . It remains to be seen how long these cameras last.

Petit et passe partout, facile à transporter et a utiliser, c'est un produit que je recommande! La qualité des photos est bonne et la batterie tiens très bien. Très contente de cette achat

Câmera atendeu as expectativas

The camera was in very bad shape, deep scratches and poor packaging, no charge for the battery no manual. Not even worth 10% of what is I paid for it. Still waiting for my money back. After I return it .

tutto ok
