Sony DSC-W730/P 16.1 MP Digital Camera with 2.7-Inch LCD (Pink)

The Sony DSC-W730 is all I could expect from a point and shoot camera. We travel extensively, and my wife enjoys scrapbooking, So this light, flexible use camera is perfect for taking all types of photos. The mode of picture/pano/movie is easy to change. The 8x zoom is as much as anyone with normal photographing needs. And with the lithium battery and a 16gb SD card, you are good to go for the entire day. After years of carrying bulky Nikons and Cannons with various lens, this Sony, and others that I've had previously owned, is a joy to own.I really enjoy the panoramic mode, especially when traveling and taking photos of wide vistas of various types. I've taken great photos of PNC Park in Pittsburgh, The Red Rock Canyon in Las Vegas,the rainforest of the Eastern Caribbean just to mention a few. And there are online sites that will print them, or you can crop them to suit your needs.My only downside is the 16 megapixel images. The files are large, and to upload them to an online photo service takes more time than my previous Sony. A 6.5 meg picture is a lot of megapixels. Clear, sharp, absolutely, but my previous camera with 14meg was just as clear. The good thing is you don't need to shoot in the 16meg mode. You can reduce it to 10, and even further down. I would have wished the gap from 16 to 10 wouldn't have been so distant from each other. A 12meg setting would have been a better choice.In closing, if you're not some special effects buff, and the Sony does do some of that, like a fireworks mode, etc, but take photos of vacations, birthdays, sporting events, and all around general use, you can't find better than this Sony for quality and weight.

I was interested in upgrading my existing Canon point and shoot camera. I am very pleased with the features on the Sony and the ease of use. I like the higher zoom which is set according to the size of the prints you wish to produce. Menu is easy to follow without any reference to a manual. I can use flash in bright light with a simple push button on the camera without having to go into the menu as I had to do with the Canon. I use camera for 3 trips we take a year plus all the birthday parties and any other event I like to capture on camera. I then enter the memory card in my laptop, develop pictures by an on line provider and organize my pictures chronologically. Amazon purchasing options such as "open-like new" is fantastic.

I love this camera and use it on all my trips. I haven't figured out its different modes but with the basic mode it works well for me. Its easy to carry so I don't need a lot of space.The battery life is good. The quality of pictures is good. It works well in the dark and takes awesome pictures in different shades of light.I bought an additional memory USB to save the pictures while using the camera. It was very cheap like 12$. Overall a great product to have. Would recommend it to the friends and family.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my sister. It is pretty small and neat which is good. Fits nicely in the hand and the colour is beautiful. My sister isn't into anything too "techy" so she is happy with it's lack of features. However for me was a bit of a drawback. Also it uses the usual sized SD card so that meant having to go search for one. Fortunately they sell micro memory cards with the adapter to change the size. But take note of that! Good thing I opened the box and checked that before I gave it to her! That and the minimal feature made me give a 3 star score.

It's perfect for the amateur photog who liked to capture day-to-day moments. I take pictures for my personal blog, pictures of hikes, pictures of my friends' getting up to no good...and it works great. I've had it for a couple years and I'm very satisfied with it. The settings are easy to figure out. The screen in quite big so that's very convenient. And it's small enough to fit in your hand. I have a wriststrap attached to mine so I don't lose it. I've dropped it a couple times but it doesn't seem to be damaged. Like, the Ajax of point-and-shoots. And this is such a nice copper blue. I really like it. It's the pop of colour in my mostly-black world.

This seems like a nice little camera. It .. takes good pictures. I just wish that it came with an instruction BOOK . I still have not mastered the use of it, I should not have to print the instructions it should have came with them.

Funciona bien y a muy buen precio

I really like this camera. It takes awesome photos for a small camera. I like it because I can carry it in my purse and always have it at hand. I am not a technical savvy person. This camera is easy to use as well as getting the pictures off the camera. This is my second Sony camera, I had a earlier version of this camera that I loved also, but I dropped it with the zoom lens opened. I decided to get the same camera, but an upgrade with a better zoom.
