    this was the greatest

    By jessica  Apr 6, 2005 | 30 out of 38 found this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 review helpful

    Pros: it works the best out of every camera that i have ever used

    Cons: i didn't find anything wrong with it "yet"

    i think that if you want a great camera that will last you for a really long time i think that you should get this because it is great. it never fails at least it never did for me. i think that if you spend the money on this i do not think that you w...ill regret what you got out of it. get it and see what happens i think that you will fall in love with it and never want to put it down. it is the greatest Read more Less

    Sofar the best

    By MichaelT  Apr 12, 2005 | 14 out of 19 found this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 review helpful

    Pros: All functions for serious amateurs are packed in this little wonder

    Cons: Handle with care when drunk - it's tiny and slippery

    This is my 3rd.digital camera and 2nd.Sony (my 1st.Sony was DSC P 9). Excellent example of workmanship and technology. Beautiful to look and it takes beautiful pictures too. I made comparative shots with my optical Nikon F80(28~105 mm Nokor lens)and ...surprised to find the quality of pictures very similar in terms of resolution and sharpness. All in all, P 200 is a technical wonder. Read more Less

    Additional info

    By Michael  May 10, 2005 | 8 out of 10 found this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 review helpful

    Pros: Excellent value for money

    Cons: None

    I just wish to clarify CVS20042004's comments. P200 is not 'All Automatic'. It has manual mode 'M', where one can adopt aperature priority, shutter priority modes to adjust depth of field and speed parameters. Besides, exposure co...mpensation (EV) can be manually adjusted at a jiffy. Thus it is suitable for both beginners and serious amateurs alike. Read more Less

    Pros: Easy to use, you can start quickly

    Cons: Zoom duirng Video mode

    Really it is a good Camera, I was comparing it for a long time with Sony T1, T3, T5 finally I selected it. I bought 1GB memory stick that enables me from taking long videos and large number of photos.

    1st digital camera

    By tom  Apr 21, 2005 | 5 out of 5 found this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 review helpful

    Pros: do not need to be a photographer to take great pictures

    Cons: none so far

    this is the 1st digital camera that we have purchased. received the camera 4-20-05 and read the instructions in 15 mins. and started taking pictures. downloaded pictures to computer and burned a photo cd in no time at all. have not had any prints mad...e yet but will post and let people know how they turn out. if you are a photo expert you will probably not like this camera because this camera does everything for you. no manual adjustments. everything auto. we as a family love this camera. thanks sony.

    I liked this Camera

    By The Gambler  Dec 22, 2005 | 4 out of 5 found this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 review helpful

    Pros: It takes good quality pictures and I also like the extra features.

    Cons: The first camera was defective it took reddish pics half the time so I went back to wal-mart and returned it and got another one. The support wasnt that good told me just to send it for repair. Not going to do this for a brand new camera.

    Overall it was a great camera dispite getting a dud the first time. Takes real great pictures. I have no complaints overall on Sony products. I have a Sony Vaio and I love it also.

    Great camera

    By h. halis  Jul 22, 2005 | 3 out of 3 found this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 review helpful

    Pros: compact, easy to use and carry on

    Cons: excellant pictures

    Two weeks ago i was in chicago and bought my third digital camera (1st Sony S85, 2nd Sony p10) T7.During my stay in chicago i took more than 400 pictures indoor or outdoor.Unfortunately, all of them were terrible.They seemed that were taken by GSM ca...mera in my mobile. low quality. My previous cameras which i am still using were great.I went to the store from that i bought it and told them the problem and changed my T7 camera to another sony model (sony P200). Now i am using sony p200 and it is great. And i came back to my country with my new third digital camera sony p200 which is great in everywhere.Also, in my computer i compared the pictures of T7 and P200 , there is significant difference between them. Sony P200 is not comperable to T7. It is easy to use and carry on in your pocket.Pictures in indoor are as very good-great as the pictures outdoor.It is also 7.2 megapicsel.I strongly recommend it if you need a digital cameca.

    Short life

    By StefanoP  Aug 15, 2006 | 2 out of 2 found this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 review helpful

    Pros: Shutter lag

    Cons: Short life, image quality

    After 6 months the power button started to fail and now the camera is not working any longer (not because of mechanical shocks). Besides this detail image quality is good but colors are not half as vivid as in my old 3 Mpixel Canon. Shutter lag and s...tartup time are great, I never missed a picture because of that. Movie mode is just great (considering that this is no camcorder). Recommended for people who change camera quite often. Read more Less

    DSC 200

    By Raj  May 10, 2005 | 2 out of 3 found this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 review helpful

    Pros: Compact, solid, good pic's

    Cons: buttons are small for big hands

    I really like this camera. This is my 3rd Sony. The others had to go due to quality issues so I will reserve judgement on this one for now. Pic's have always been great with Sony's. I particularly like the ability to pic the resolution depend...ing on needs and situation. Features are abundant but it takes a while to know how to use them all optimally. Overall a very solid camera Read more Less
