The DSC-W7 digital camera combines the some of the most desirable characteristics of a fully featured camera in a compact metal-alloy body wrapped around an impressive, 2.5-inch LCD.

Powered by Sony's Real Imaging Processor circuitry, this camera delivers extraordinary performance, including lightning-fast camera response times and extended battery life with approximately 380 shots between power charges.

This model comes with a full 32 megabytes of internal memory (30 megabytes available). As a result, it is bringing new meaning to the term "worry-free" digital photography. Even if you forget to bring a memory card, or your Memory Stick media card runs out of capacity, you can still take great pictures thanks to the camera's built-in memory.

The camera sports a Carl Zeiss Vario Tessar 3X optical zoom lens that fully extends in about a second, as well as large 2.5-inch color LCD screen for optimal picture taking and viewing.

    The BIG Picture!

    Pros: Fantastic features, every feature imaginable, supurb quality.

    Cons: None so far

    With the DSC-W7 Sony has introduced an amazing piece of technology in a beautifully designed and and crafted package. At 7.2 Megapixels and about the size of a pack of (non filter non king size) cigarettes, the W7 occupies a lofty and lonely position... in the melange of compact digital cameras. Sony went for the best and has collaborated with Carl Zeiss for their unsurpassed Vario Tessar lens system. Sony provides the best and largest (at 2.5") LCD in the business providing all the information one needs to master just about any shooting condition. The W7 features extremely fast recycle times and has a multi-burst shoot mode capable of 16 shots per second. The W7 uses rechargable NiMh AA batteries so there's no hassle with proprietary batteries. Sony claims 380 shots from a single charge so batteries should never be a problem. Virtually unlimited programmability with a plethora of presets for particular or difficult shooting situations (everything from on the beach, backlit night portraits, florescent lighting, to skiing in the mountains and many others). I highly recommend getting the HVL-FSL1B slave flash which will extend the W7's range and capabilities for night shots. The W7 includes Pictbridge for interface with a printer without using a computer but I won't know how well that works until I receive my (yet to be released/shipped) DPP-FP50 printer. Having the ability to turn off the sound is a nice feature for nature shoots. Menus take a minimal amount of time to learn however, the W7 is NOT for people who's clock on their VCR flashes 12:00!. If you are techno-challenged do yourself a favor and get one of Sony's less full featured point & shoot Cybershots. Technology is continuously on the move but for the time being, I believe the DSC-W7 sets the industry standard for high resolution compact cameras Read more Less

    Pros: great photo quality

    Cons: picture blurs if hand is not that steady, so work on that

    I received this camera yesterday as an early Christmas present from my parents. Although initially I wanted the SD 450 from Canon, my parents bought this one for me. Still, after using the camera for a while I was actually delighted with the results.... The best feature however is that you can use it as a camera as well as a camcoder with full sounds. Love that! A 1GB memory card runs a long way with 1000 pics and over 1 hr of video. The battery life is good too. All in all I am very happy with this camera. Read more Less

Pro Reviews: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W7

    Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W7

    This compact camera takes very sharp photos and displays them on a large, bright LCD. The $449 Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W7 offers 7.2 megapixels, which is plenty for a point-and-shoot camera. It sports a 3X optical zoom and a big, 2.5-inch LCD and forgoes extensive scene modes in favor of some manual controls. Read more
