What's great about it:?Great picture quality, easy to use and small What's not so great:?I haven't found anything yet! "I had a sony cyber shot before and had it for a few years, I dropped it a few many times and recently died. from Bestbuy.com I dropped the camera from about 3-4 feet to the ground and it won't work. I can toss my cell phone across the room and it would still work. from Amazon.com If you are a canon user for past few years do not get this camera. I owned two canon cameras in last 5 years and then deciced to go for Sony this time. I am badly dissapointed on the picture quality. from Amazon.com I needed a second still image camera for business since we share a single one in the office, which often results in delays. I was so happy with the Sony Cybershot DSCW80 that I bought about two or three years ago, that it was a no-brainer to upgrade to this newer, higher megapixel version. from Amazon.com The picture quality on this camera is excellent, especially for the price that u pay for it. It is definitely well worth the price. It's very easy to use and also taking pictures at night is no problem at all, u can take a picture when it is very dark and the picture comes out like u took it during the day. from Amazon.com I needed a point and shoot camera with a larger LCD screen and a longer battery life. This camera satifies both of them. from Amazon.com I purchased this camera for my daughter to replace one that a small child dropped. The Image Stabilization and face recognition is great because she has small children she tries to capture with it. She really enjoys it and gets a lot of beautiful pictures. from Amazon.com I was very disappointed with the DSC-W230. About 80% of my picture taking is outdoors at parks or on trips. from Amazon.com I absolutely love this camera! I looked around to find a good review for weeks before buying it but I couldn't find more than 2 or 3 reviews. As soon as I opened the box I fell in love with this camera. from Amazon.com I have been using the Sony DSC-W55 7.2 Mega Pixel Cyber Shot for over a year now, and have been very pleased with it. I wanted to upgrade to something that would provide me with more pixels, and hopefully better pictures. from Amazon.com
