I have used this Camera for over 1 Month now. It’s picture quality is amazing. It is easy to use and Auto function does everything for you. The zoom is excellent on it. It is worth the money paid for it. The only thing I would suggest is more internal memory. I got only 2 pictures on the internal memory on 10.1 MegaPixel.
This camera is amazing my first use was of my 10 year old son jumping and spinning seven foot in the air hitting his target and receiving his Brown belt in Karate. I and all of my family were AMAZED the quality of the pics and how he was caught mid air and captured his spin and landing. I researched camera’s for 4 months thru consumer rpts and numerous website, and it has been everything I expected and more.
My husband and I are going on our honeymoon (finally) and I chose to purchase this camera for our cruise through Alaska. So far, it a great camera.
Ever since my Canon A630 bit the dust a few months ago, I’ve been searching and researching a replacement. I tried several new Canon models and returned them the next day. Boy, Canon just doesn’t make point-and-shoots like they used to! They are at the top of their game for DSLR, but everything in the $99-250 range is crap. I initially shied away from Sony due to their memory cards not being SD, but I am so glad I gave this gem a try. This camera takes great pics, the zoom is fantastic, and there is virtually no lag time between pics. So many options – I have not even had the chance to try everything out yet! It has many settings, takes video, 10X zoom, 10 megapixels, etc. All around, a great buy!
I’m going to attempt to make a list of pros and cons, although I’m really struggling coming up with the cons.
Pros:
*Does not feel cheap or tiny. I specifically stayed away from ultra-compact cameras after I tried out a Canon and hated the way it felt in my hands.
*Very nice ergonomic touches with pads on the front and back for added support.
*Zoom is excellent.
*Picture quality is superb.
*Easy mode allows the camera to adjust automatically.
*Virtually no lag time, very quick recycling.
*Fantastic overall value.
Cons:
*LCD screen does not rotate like on the Canon A630. I would have loved to have the same option on this camera to be able to close the screen to prevent it from bumps and scratches. I’ll have to get screen protectors and keep it in a camera bag when traveling. Not really a con, but something I noticed as a user.
*Lens has a removable cover instead of a built-in automatic one. Not sure if the zoom is the reason for this choice, but on my A630, the auto lens shutter broke, so maybe this isn’t much of a con either.
*Does not take SD cards.
Overall, I am extremely satisfied with my purchase. This camera is a real deal! I would definitely recommend it to anyone who wants a portable camera that does not feel cheap, takes great pictures, and has a 10x zoom.
First of all, I got this camera at Staples for $208 out the door with a 8 gig lexmar card. I initially got the Lumix ZR1, while its a great outdoor camera , I was very disappointed on its indoor performance so I returned it and got the H20. Out of the box, the camera looks like a mini-dslr camera. It feels solid and buttons/dials are ergonomically positioned on my feeling/fit.
(Additional Information aside from other past reviews)
My Cybershot H20 with powerful optical zoom performs great outside and very good in low light conditions due to its decent built-in flash. It’s auto mode performs very well, though I bought this camera due to its manual control features which is it’s major advantage among other comparably priced cameras.
It’s lack of true wide lens and the quite annoying lens cap are the only limitations for me, but they’re not sufficient to discourage my urge to buy this camera.
Will I recommend this to a friend or family member? Definitely! Like I’ve said in the title, the Cybershot H20 is one of the best reasonably (or should I say cheap) priced digital point and shoot cameras.
