Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S700 review: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S700

 

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S700

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S700 has respectable performance for its class.

Unfortunately, it has some issues with photo quality.

Other models do budget better than the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S700.

Sony Cybershot DSC-S700 Digital Camera Review

 

The S series from Sony is offering compact affordable cameras different from the ultra-compact stylish ones not just because of the design but also because these have less shooting options. The S700 in particular is a 7.2 megapixel camera with 3x...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S700 Digital Camera Full Review

 

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S700 was announced in mid January of this year.  The S series from Sony is their affordable, entry level line.  A previous model, the S600, ended up doing very well in the market.  The S700 is a 7.2 megapixel camera with 3x...

Respectable performance for its class

Unfortunately, it has some issues with photo quality

In the highly competitive low-end camera market, it takes a bit more work to stand out from the crowd. Unfortunately, the frill-free Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S700 can't quite keep up with better same-priced models like the Canon PowerShot A550 or Sony's...

Consumer review (newegg.com)

Great Pics - Great Price

 

Have found that 3mp setting gives the greatest bang/pic quality with 1gb pro duo card

Just got back from three week vacation to Scandinavia and Russia - took all outdoor pics on 'Auto' and most indoor pics on 'ISO' - 99% came out great - the other 1% were due to me moving camera too soon - Doh

None I have found - except with lack of viewfinder - outdoor viewing of lcd is very challenging
