Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W290 Digital Camera

Specifications: The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 is one of Sony's most popular compact digital cameras. It has a 12.1MP images sensor and a 5x Optical zoom (2x digital). This model has a wide-angle lens (5mm - 25mm) and can also shoot HD movies (up to 720p). It has a beautiful 3" LCD display that has 230'000 pixels. For connectivity, it has a USB port, component video output and video/audio output. It comes with 11MB of built in memory and for additional storage; you can insert a memory card.
Design: The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 comes in black, silver, bronze and blue. It measures at 3.9 x 0.9 x 2.2 inches and weighs at just 5.1 ounces. Sony products have always been very stylish and this model proves to be no exception. It has a semi-glossy/matte metal-like surface with soft rounded edges. The controls on this model are very simple with just a couple of buttons located on the right side of the LCD screen (unlike some other models with loads of buttons cluttered into a small area).
Features & Performance: Considering the price range, the quality of the images taken on the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 are pretty good. Nevertheless, when compared to the images taken on Canon compact cameras, there is something lacking in the quality of the images taken on this Sony model. In terms of performance, it is one of the best in its class, with a quick shot-to-shot and start-up time. The quality of the videos taken were very good, but unfortunately, you can't use the zoom feature while recording videos. It has the usual features found on Sony compact digital cameras such as the Smile Shutter Technology, intelligent auto mode, 13 photo modes to choose from and many other features. For a camera of this price range, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290 comes with a wide array of features and settings. I give this camera four out of five star rating.
