Pontos Fortes: Large 2.5" LCD,compact size,loaded with features,easy to use,fast on/off.
Pontos Fracos: none except that it only comes with the 32MB memory card, and the 256MB is about 60 dollars.
Resumo: 2005-01-04 16:42:23 this is a great camera! i take photos with it all the time.
it is very compact and looks shiny and stylish. it is loaded with features like a large 2.5" LCD. it is very fast at turning on and off. it takes photos pretty fast.the only thing that i dont like is the 32MB memory card that comes with it. the 256MB is about 60 dollars and the 1 gig is 300 plus! i was surprised at the amount of money memory sticks are. other than that, i would recomend this camera to anybody.

Pontos Fortes: Size, controls, ease of use, features
Pontos Fracos: Only 3x optical zoom; placement of speaker (extremely minor)
Resumo: This is my 2nd digital camera. It is one of the best purchasing decisions I have ever made. I call it a hidden gem. The quality of the pictures is excellent & features, including manual control, is great. What really sets it apart, though, is that there are additional lenses available.
The menu structure is easy to follow & even when I haven't used the camera for a few days, the camera remains easy to use.
I am only a "middling" photographer, but, because of its tremendous versatility, I have captured far better pictures than I could with my previous camera. I have already recommended this to several other people and one of my clients went right out and bought the DSC-W1 and is equally ecstatic with her purchase.

Pontos Fortes: Excellent photo quality, 2.5 inch LCD screen, long lasting battery life (2 AA Nickel Metal Hydride), very compact, very competitive price.
Pontos Fracos: Mediocre flash range, camera bag not included.
Resumo: I've waited 3 months for this camera to be released from Sony. I've read numerous reviews on this, which all gave it "Highly Recommended". I finally got my hands on this baby and I did not regret waiting one bit. The LCD screen is the biggest I've seen in a digital camera (same size as the DSC-T1). The picture quality is excellent and the shutter lag is very very minimal. This camera has lots of manual settings. I like the fact that it offers so much in such a small package. Taking pictures with the zoom is a breeze. The only thing I didn't like about it, as expected, is the mediocre flash range. It's acceptable but produces red-eye at times. But come to think of it, mostly all digital cameras produce red-eye with flashed pictures. I highly recommend this camera. You won't regret it.

Pontos Fortes: Small Size, Photo Quality, Pre-Set Modes & Manual Adjustments. Standard Memory Stick and AA Batteries.
Pontos Fracos: Shipped with only a 32 mb memory Stick, for taking 5mp photos and video you need more memory
Resumo: Fantastic point and shoot camera! The 32 mb memory Stick is not adequate for this camera, so I added a 1gb Memory Stick Pro and it worked as advertised. Would recommend this camera for anyone looking for a small point and shoot digital camera.

Pontos Fortes: "BIG" LCD screen, ease of use, endless feature options, close-up photos, and of course PRICE
Pontos Fracos: small memory card, difficult battery release door
Resumo: My first purchase and use of a digital camera. This is one great camera for the price and what it has to offer. I was up and using it in no time at all. The movie option is great as long as you have a large memory card and record in standard mode otherwise the download to a device to play is quite large. Only thing I noticed when the batteries are low is that the lense motor slows down to a crawl and acts differently than with fully charged batteries. Sony has made a great little camera in the DSC-W1.

Pontos Fortes: Size, LCD, AA batteries, movie mode and black & white modes are GREAT - use 'em all the time.
Pontos Fracos: Flash is weak, zoom inadequate at times.
Resumo: I spent a LOT of time investigating digital cameras online -one would think I was buying a car or something. Anyway I am a novice camera user and remain very impressed with this little guy. I would certainly recommend it. The movie mode is great for 'vignettes' or small movie snapshots. I also use the black and white a lot. I also didn't think the LCD would matter very much, but it does: I never use the viewfinder. I appreciate the large size of the LCD when passing the camera around to friends to view pictures and movies.
Hint #1: Immediately jack up the megapixel resolution to 5 so that you can capture moments in the best resolution possible. Then, bypass Sony's ridiculous profit margins- for memory cards buy SanDisk instead. The 512 MB is fantastic - you will get a lot of memory space. I saved $75.00 this way - $150 vs. $225. The 32 MB is inadequate for daily usage. I use it as 'emergency' memory when my 512 has filled up on me and I need an extra pinch of memory to get me through the moment.
Hint #2: Do NOT buy the Sony camera case. They charge a ridiculous price for a shoddy version. Go for a Lowepro - I paid ten dollars and it is very sturdy - also has a nice inside pocket to keep memory cards.
Hint #3: Buy a separate set of rechargeable batteries you can swap on the go. The AA battery format is a huge plus.
Picture clarity is great for the size and price of the camera. The camera and case are small enough that I WILL take it anywhere, and have. In other words, it is a convenient model.
I did find that for indoors the flash was inadequate at a distance. The zoom could also have been 4x or 5x.
All in all I am quite happy with this model - but stay away from buying Sony brand 'peripherals' unless you like spending money.
This camera fulfills my needs. The only reason it does not get five stars for the above drawbacks. Otherwise, a great job by Sony and their third-party peripheral competitors!

Pontos Fortes: Compact, Large LCD screen, Great battery life, Very good picture quality
Pontos Fracos: Insufficient memory card
Resumo: Let me start by saying, the reason this camera isn't getting 5 stars is because I don't think there's a camera out there worth 5 stars. That being said, this has been a great camera so far.
Battery life is something that I find very important, and this camera excels there. The camera comes with rechargable AA batteries and a charger. I've read that they're supposed to have a really long life, but I haven't had a chance to see for myself. The reason for this? When I got the camera, I couldn't wait for the batteries to charge so I put in some Duracell batteries. They haven't died yet!
The only thing I can really complain about is that you have to budget in another ~$100 for a good sized memory card. I think I paid a little under $100 for a 512MB Lexar Memory Stick Pro. I highly recommend this camera, this camera is worthy of the high praise.

Pontos Fortes: Very large 2.5 inch LCD to review photos instantly with clarity. Extremely user friedly. Great flash photos with true colors better than the Olympus c-3000. Great movies. AA battery is a big plus.
Pontos Fracos: In low light setting the photo is grainier than the Olympus c-3000 using the same exposure. Not really a weakness because I always use flash.
Resumo: What is good or bad ? All relative. So I am doing a 2 camera comparison so I won't confuse you with these words. Countless hours have been spend to test them, hopefully this will help people make an intelligent decision. My previous job involved digital camera chip development so I had some exposure on digital imaging. The quality of the photos starts with a good ccd sensor than the colors are processed before it is stored in memory. I am comparing this Sony with my old Olympus C-3000. With the flash on the Sony camera produces very true natural colors compared to the Olympus which looks some what yellowish on facials. The natural color is very important for me because half the photos I take are at night with a flash. Without flash some darker subjects becomes faded but the Olympus still shows a fairly readable image. In bright light settings the camera can not produce the details at the over exposed areas of the photo compared to the Olympus which still retained some image data at the brightest area of the photo. The reason is mostly because the way the colors are processed. Sony had to sacrifice some details to better the image quality in other areas. This is not noticeable for most people because they think the photo is over exposed but if you lower the exposure the subject becomes under exposed so that won't fix the problem. You have to do a side by side comparison to know that Olympus is better in this respect. As far as the shutter lags goes, I have been told that Sony and Kodak are the fastest at about 1.2 second and Olympus and other cameras at 2.0 seconds. After a side by side comparison this proofs to be not completely true, there is barely any noticeable difference in shutter lag both in low and bright light. It feels like Sony is a tiny little fastest but no more than 10%. Without the proper test equipment, I won’t comment further. For those soccer moms and dads the trick is really to hold the shutter button down half way and get the camera to prefocus before taking the picture. You should not pay much more money for the 10% improvement. Most digital cameras can prefocus and you should cut lag time down by about 70% which is a ton better thant he 10% improvement. Especially in low light setting the lag time increases dramatically because it takes the camera longer to focus, so learn to prefocus. This camera is great for those moms who is got too many things to do and forget to charge the camera. You have got to get a camera which uses AA batteries and this camera uses only two of them. All batteries discharge even if you don't use them. Lithium Ion batteries are discharged in about 3-4 weeks so when you need them the most, often they are dead. Alkaline batteries take 3 to 5 years to discharge. They are great backups and they are always ready and can be purchased when you need them. Don’t ever buy a camera that uses proprietary batteries you will regret missing those photos with dead batteries. Also that is how the camera companies ripe people off by selling their proprietary batteries. Olympus, Sony and other manufacturers are getting into using proprietary batteries so be aware. Enough said about image quality and batteries but I think they are the most important issues of buying a digital cameras. Anyway after looking at the low light image quality of the Sony, I was going to take it back. But the more I use it the more I fall in love with it. Sony got the ease of use and features down to a science and makes it impossible for me to return it. It has this very large 2.5" LCD so I can review and share photos without downloading. I think the largest LCD Olympus make is the C-7000 at 2.0” and the C-3000 is only 1.5 inch. From the menus to the buttons. It feels like they are always there when you need them. Movies are great, you can email to your friends and they don’t need any software to see the movies with Win 2000 and up. Originally I was going to get a 10x optical zoom for some of my kid’s events but I figure out that a 3x zoom in a 5 mg camera is actually a 5x optical zoom in a 3 mg camera. You can enlarge a 5 mg image and zoom in than crop and still get a 3 mg resolution. So this camera is like a 5x optical zoom 3 mg camera. Don't get the 10x zoom unless you don't care about the bulkiness and the weight. I tried the macro function last night, the clarity is amazing with no noticeable distortion. You can focus on your finger nails at about 3 inches away with auto focus. My old Olympus need to focus at about 10 inches away unless I use the manual focus which really is hard to use. Another thing is that I love the sound of the shutter because it gives me the picture taken confirmation signal clearly and you can even turn the sound off at meetings. Oh, I discovered another feature on this baby, it has auto shut off. You will be in love if you run to the store and get one. My thumbs up for Sony.

Pontos Fortes: >Great MegaPixel count for the money
>Easy to view Screen
>All metal body made to (pysically) last a long time
>Hystogram feature is pretty swell
>USB 2.0 compatable
Pontos Fracos: >Battery Charger that comes with the bundle charges slowly. I would like an AC adapter instead
>3x zoom could be inadiquate in some situations that arn't point and shoot
>No option to save under tif
Resumo: First thin that I suggest you do when you buy this camera is purchase a memory card with some actually storage. The 32mb memory stick is inadequate. Maybe a 256 or a 512 would be more suitable for this camera if you plan on taking a lot of high resolution pictures.
The focus isn't as sluggish as other ulta-compact digital cameras (Nikon 5200), however it could be just a taaad quicker.
Movie mode is of high quality (640 x 480) and records with sound. The 640 x 480 resolution requires a memory stick "pro" card, but movie mode doesn't require a pro card. For instance, the sick that comes with it is capable of movies, however there aren't as high in the quality rating.
I’m looking forward to the longtime ownership of this camera.

Pontos Fortes: Small size, picture quality, ability to connect easily to TV or computer to review pictures, ability to use AA batteries in an emergency if rechargeable ones fail.
Pontos Fracos: None that I am aware of at this time.
Resumo: Bought this camera shortly before leaving for vacation. Used it for many pictures, both inside and out and they all came out great. Small size allows me to keep it in my pocket or purse and have it available in a moments notice. It turns on and is ready to shoot in a flash and the shutter lag is non-existent. I find it easier to use than my other digital camera, the Sony DSC-85.I would have given it 5 stars, but I haven't tried everything it is capable of doing so I might find something I am disappointed in later on.

Pontos Fortes: Quick on/off, minimum shutter lag, sharp pictures, good video, larger LCD, small size.
Pontos Fracos: Manual mode not flexible, only two aperture settings for each particular zoom setting.
Resumo: Comparing the DSC-W1 to the couples of digital cameras I used before, my feeling is that this camera has quick on/off; fast auto focus even in the dark; quite sharp pictures and true color saturation in normal conditions, white balance did help in different lighting conditions to get natural colors tone. The video quality in 640X480 30F/s is excellent with tripod. The larger 2.5" LCD is a big plus for me because it make it much easier to see all the settings comparing to 1.5" or 1.8" LCDs unless you have very good eye sight. I also like the AA NiMH batteries and its life. The camera is small and easy to carry around, but a little bit heavy.
The down side: there is no fast action sport mode, to shoot fast action you need manual mode. However, the manual mode is limited. it allows you only two aperture settins in different zoom: Wide angle f2.8/5.6; Tele f5.2/f10; and there are some other settings between for example f3.8/f8.3 ... for zoom in between.

Pontos Fortes: Huge LCD screen makes taking photos and movies much easier, likewise viewing and editing is much easier, very easy to operate, great movies and pictures, good printed manual
Pontos Fracos: Software is good only for copying files to the PC and making a CD, really pathetic
Resumo: I had planned to buy a more complicated camera, the Olympus 5060WZ. However when I saw this one I liked the features and after using the heck out of it for 2 days, so far it performs great. The Olympus is really intended for experienced photographers. If you're looking for something in between point & shoot and a camera like the 5060, get this one - you won't regret it. [I'll update this after I've used it for awhile longer.]

Pontos Fortes: Fast picture-to-picture speed.
Large LCD.
High quality construction.
Some manual settings, and optional lenses.
Extremely high quality video.
Pontos Fracos: Taking indoor pictures need some manual adjustments.
Resumo: I need to use the flash in many indoor siutations, even though it seems fairly bright. Also, the flash may not turn on even though a fuzzy icon flashes. The fuzzy icon shows up to warn the user when the camera selects a low shutter speed, which may cause fuzziness in the picture if the camera is not set on a tripod.

Pontos Fortes: Large LCD viewfinder, uses AA batteries, compact, 5.1MP
Pontos Fracos: Stock Memory Stick is only 32MB. Flash is a little weak.
Resumo: This is my first digital camera. The W1's 2.5" LCD is great for viewing shots on the go. You can pan around and zoom in on your shots looking at the LCD viewfinder to see even more detail.
The jury is still out on action and night shots which I find are the hardest to take with this camera. The weak flash and my inexperience have made it a challenge to getting a good shot. Daytime shots and stills look great.

Pontos Fortes: Love the 2.5" LCD display and the AA batteries. High quality
construction and design. I replaced a Sony 1.6 MP Mavica with this camera and what a difference!
Pontos Fracos: The software lacks and a memory stick greater than 32 MB should be included.
Resumo: I truly love this camera. I enjoyed my Sony Mavica, but this camera is light years ahead of it. I have yet to purchase a Memory Stick Pro for movies, but so far the still picture quality is excellent with the standard Memory Sticks.
