Are There Really Digital Camera Deals On The Internet?
A question I asked myself before is whether a major manufacturer of digital cameras can make one that costs less than $250 and works like it should. The company I'm talking about here is Sony, and the model is Cybershot DSCW200, an ultra compact camera, which costs a bit too much for the category that it's in.
You probably want the best possible camera, at the smallest possible price. Your best option would be to look for it online. There is no need to drive from one shop to another or to call sales people. Instead, sit at your desk and search for what you need.
It's just too much for an ultra compact digital camera, so ignore the marketing here. Those that use ultra compacts will either upload the photos to Facebook or Myspace, or they will view them on the LCD directly. This can be accomplished with a 6 megapixel camera easily. With 12 you can get a very large photo, which is something that people will never get to use.
Considering the price of the camera, I expected a lot more from the LCD of this camera. Too bad that Sony went the cheap way here and put only 115,000 pixels on the LCD, which is 2.5 inch. The quality of the picture looks grainy on the LCD and seeing it from an off angle doesn't work that well. If you want examples, the cameras that Canon produces in the same category have 230,000 pixels on a 3 inch LCD.
When you are looking for discount digital camera bargains, do not forget to compare the older models with the newer model cameras. In many cases, you can find an older camera that offers all the features and functions of some of the newer cameras.
The review is not over yet though. There are plenty of things that are wrong with this camera and you can see them all below. Insufficient zoom from the zoom lens. Too many megapixels, which nobody uses and which get the price high. The flash is slow to recharge. Can be used easily only by people with small hands. If you want face detection, you need to use the auto mode, but it doesn't always work even then. If you're making a video, the zoom will not work.
A bargain is only a bargain, if you get something you need and it performs as well as promised. So, don't just consider price in your digital camera shopping adventure. Be an informed consumer, and get the best bargain that's right for you.
