Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55 7.2MP Digital Camera $139.98 shipped

November 22nd, 2007

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W55 7.2MP Digital Camera can be had right now for $139.98 which include shipping for a camera that lists for $179. What you get is a nice all-in-one camera with 7.2 MP, more than enough at this price range, that takes clear and noise-free images at high speed, in a stylish brushed-aluminum package. It’s a small camera at 3 1/2″ x 2 1/4″ x 7/8″ (89 x 57 x 23 mm) weighing 4.2 ounces (116 g). While the pictures turned out great under regular lighting conditions with the Sony® Super HAD™ (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD and Sony Clear RAW™ NR (Noise Reduction) image processing technology reducing noise even with high sensitivity ISO 1000 you’ll still get some grainy pictures in low light conditions. Other downsides are that you’ll have to purchase Sony’s proprietary Memory Stick if the internal 56 MB isn’t going to be enough for you. Another problem may be the lack of optical image stabilisation so unless you have surgeons steady hands you may want to consider the Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX12 which is also available for under $200.

In all a great upgrade from the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W35 or W50 and a superb deal.
