 Written on November 1, 2002 Summary: I love this camara As mentioned above, I love this camara. I don't know anything about the technical aspects of digital camaras, but a friend of mine who does said he was suprised to see how much the camara has for the low price. The pictures are incredible, I've had it for a month now and haven't noticed a single problem with any of the pics. Sometimes when using the scene mode, the photos come out a little fuzzy. The manual says it's because the exposure is longer and you should use a tripod. It'll be fine if you just find a stable surface to put it on. This camara also rules because it so sturdy. I dropped it onto a marble floor from about five feet. Just snapped the lens barrel back into place and it worked perfectly. If you don't have a USB port on your computer like me (I have a really old computer), you can by the Sony floppy disc adapter, insert the memory stick, and use it just like a regular floppy disk. I previously owned a HP 215 digital camara and this is in no comparison a much better camara. Written on October 31, 2002 Summary: Great pics, but 'delay' can be very frustrating! This is my first digital camera. I bought this to 'test the waters', before plunging into Nikon D/Canon EOS D series. Sony DSC P71 is a fabulous camera when it comes to color accuracy, clarity of pictures,ease of use, and good features at this price level. It comes with an international charger and NiMH batteries. Noise at ISO 400 is noticable, yet the indoor night time pics are very warm.. Now over to the undesirables..! 2. 16mb is a joke - suggest you purchase a 64/128 mb. 3. The most frustrating thing about this camera is the shutter delay. i.e the time it takes the camera to record the scene after you click. That one+ second seems like an eternity. If you have a two year old, forget taking a good picture in one shot. I usually end up taking up 10 pics to get a couple right. The other 'delay' is between pictures. I am not sure if this problem is isolated to Sony or all digital cameras in general. Just this annoyance has convinced me to put off buying a more expensive digital camera for a while. I switch back to my SLR when this 'delay' gets to me! If delay would not bother you, go for it! It is one impeccable camera. Written on October 23, 2002 Summary: Great Little Camera I've had my Sony DSC-P71 for a month and a half, and I think it's a wonderful piece of equipment. I have alot of experience with 35mm film cameras, but this is my first digital. As such, I found it a little complicated at first, but the instruction book is very easy to read and helps greatly when you need to find out about a specific feature or function. And the Memory Stick storage media is excellent -- small and relatively inexpensive, you can store loads of medium size high-res images on a 64MB stick. Uploading images to my desktop PC was a bit of a challenge the first time, but onve I got that figured out, the USB hookup makes it fast and relatively painless. I look forward to shooting lots of great pictures with this nice little camera! Written on October 7, 2002 Summary: SWEET! This camera is the most amazing camera I've touched! Crystal clear pictures! This camera lets you film too. It comes w/ a 16mb memory stick but I've upgraded to a 64mb so I can take a ton of pictures or capture a lot of film! There are many many features that are easy to use. The other day I showed pictures that I just took on my camera to my brother on my parents big screen television w/ the video out cord that comes w/ the camera. You won't be dissapointed! Written on September 5, 2002 Summary: Menus difficult; great model if you have a Vaio First, I would recommend using the side-by-side review feature at dpreview.com/reviews/sidebyside.asp. A friend sent me that link, and it was invaluable in trying to compare multiple models, once I had decided on a Sony. It's especially helpful when deciding on whether to opt for features like "movies", optical zoom settings, and so forth. I do *not* regret buying a Sony camera, since it is wonderful to pop out the Memory Stick, pop it into my Vaio laptop and have immediate access to the pictures - so much easier than the typical connect-the-camera and transfer-the-pictures routine. Since getting this camera, I find it's much harder to navigate menus than the previous digital camera I had (Kodak DC4800). The compact size, long battery life, and Memory Stick feature make this model well worth it! Also, you should absolutely plan on at least a 64MB Memory Stick if you are having your shots developed by Ofoto or similar, since you'll want the high/fine resolution for prints. The 16MB Memory Stick that is included with the unit is not nearly large enough, holding only about 9 high-res pictures. This model, if you get it at around ($$$), is the perfect combination of features, size (it's small and easy to carry), and price. Highly recommended, you just have to study the manual to figure out the menus. |
