    The camera that works for you

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jun 26, 2005 | 156 out of 172 found this Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 review helpful

    Pros: It has everything I want in a camera

    Cons: Haven't found any

    I've had it only for about 2 weeks, but everything I've tried to do with it, works! It's a simple camera to use with sophisticated features. I'm 68 yrs. old and I can operate it with no trouble at all.

    What a bargain for me!

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Jul 18, 2005 | 67 out of 72 found this Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 review helpful

    Pros: Ease of use and many features

    Cons: battery life

    I bought this camera as a replacement for a Sony DSC-P10, which I broke. I wanted to get something similar yet better, and I did! This camera is fantastic. It does just about everything we used to do in a darkroom but without the chemicals. I can cus...tomize the settings or simply set everything to automatic for poin-and-shoot. It does drain the batteries a bit when everything is turned on and shooting movies or photo-bursts, but I still get a good hour out of the rechargeable batteries. Pricey, yes, in a way, but a great camera so far. I gave the support a 4 because of the complexity of the manual that comes with the camera. Read more Less

    Sony is getting better and better

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 5, 2005 | 26 out of 27 found this Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 review helpful

    Pros: Good, QUALITY photos for the price.

    Cons: no hot shoe

    This camera has everything and more. Easy to use, but still capable of fully manual modes. I work at a camera shop, and it's our top seller. Customers can believe they can get such a wonderful picture from a digital. The image stabalization is wo...nderful. When you get into the loger zoom ranges, you need it to get a good, quality photo. And, you can order tons of accessories for this camera through Sony. It's a wonderful buy, and it's a camera that won't be obsolete anytime soon. The only bad thing... doesn't have a hot shoe for an external flash unit. Read more Less

    Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H1 Digital Camera

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Aug 2, 2005 | 26 out of 28 found this Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 review helpful

    Pros: The whole camera is great!

    Cons: Manual could be better, but cd helps

    I hesitated to change from my Minolta Maxuum 7 35mm camera, because I like to take good pictures. I did not think digital did as well. I am glad I tried it! FANTASTIC! Excellent zoom, easy to use.

    Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H1 Digital Camera

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 9, 2005 | 15 out of 16 found this Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 review helpful

    Pros: Large LCD, quality

    Cons: Price, Size

    The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H1 Digital Camera has great quality. The pictures you take, when viewed, are like you're there. It's especially wonderful in the sun light. There's a great zoom, and it focuses great, a problem I've had with ot...her cameras. The only problem is, like other cameras, the time from when you click, to when it takes is a painfully long time, and causes you to miss a lot of great shots. It has some great features, but it can take a while to figure out how to get to them. The large size wasn't my favorite, but others use to this camera size probably won't mind. The LCD is WONDERFUL!

    Impresive Clarity

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Sep 20, 2005 | 8 out of 8 found this Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 review helpful

    Pros: Good Clarity, Decent Flash, good 12x optical zoom

    Cons: accessories hard to find

    hi all, Bought the DSC-H1 about a month back, after a lot of delebration. It has good color reproduction, Easy one handed operation for all the basic functions(Amazing) The 12x Zoom is really good and even at 5.1 Megapixel it compensates for shakey... hands. I whish it were a little cheaper though. Read more Less

    a gift I truly appreciate

    By Yahoo! Shopping User  Oct 14, 2005 | 9 out of 11 found this Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 review helpful

    Pros: easy to use for novice, image quality,

    Cons: size,

    My husband upgraded me after our son was born to this from the 4 mega pixel model. Friends and family are always commenting on the better image quality,and it's pretty easy for a novice like myself to use. I just miss the ease and "spontinai...ty" that my old model had. Read more Less

    Pros: Has an affordable Teleconverter option

    Cons: Does not support Raw format

    I have found that with the teleconverter lense that i found online for about $100, this camera produces professional quality pictures, especially if you are using it for wildlife photography
