Customer Rating:      Summary: Best Compact Camera I have owned !!! Comment: The "Super Steady Shot" is unbelievable. All the pictures I have taken have been blur free without using a tripod. Want a picture indoors without using flash to get that natural feeling this the camera is for you. Can't say enough about the auto focus. All the options you could think of. Amazon's FREE shipping arrived fast and packaged very well.
Customer Rating:      Summary: BEST OF THE BEST Comment: This is an easy product to describe... for its price its easily one of the most powerful cameras i ever had. Pictures are colourful, sharp and definetively BIG, 10.1 MP is no joke!
The Camera itself feels pretty solid and goodlooking, actually that was one of the main reasons that i bought it because i don't like how "Canon's" looks like no matter canons are great machines..
to me is a perfect 10/10.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Take a look at some pictures on line. Comment: I always like to wait until I have used a product before I say anything good or bad about it. So far I have been pleased with the camera. For the price of the camera the pictures I have taken and the movies I have made are very good. The only bad thing is pictures taken using the flash don't turn out very good. But you can take pictures in low light that do turn out good. For a look at photos and videos taken with the Sony DSCW170 on line use this link. Copy and paste.

Click on the Traveler Videos to see some videos taken with the camera. The videos will look a little choppy due to the web site's size limitation. You can also see some raw photos taken with the Sony. Click on Traveler Photos, look for the ones labeled rangerbob1957. The battery time is good even when making videos but is sure is nice to have a back up.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great little camera Comment: Great little camera, but packs a big punch. This camera has lots of features, but is consumer friendly. This camera comes highly recommended.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great camera Comment: I bought this camera to my dad for his birthday and I had to try it. I was amazed with the quality and features this camera has and its size. I took some picture in NYC using the HIGH ISO and the photos were with just a few noise. I took pictures of my girlfriend's cats and they were awesome. Also I took it to a big party and the quality in a dark disco was awesome. And finally I used it to take pictures and record the F1 GP the shots quality were good too. Very impressed with the quality of the movie recorded. My only issue is with the smile detection, some time it does not allow me to take pictures but I did not have time to explore the manual. I am wondering to buy another for myself.
