Sony Cyber-shot® DSC-W200 Digital Camera

Pros: Stylish, compact, fast, Optical Image Stabilization, low noise, 2.5" LCD, and an optical viewfinder
Cons: Default images are slightly soft, unintuitive menu system, low resolution LCD, and weak flash

The Cybershot DSC W200 is Sony’s "W" series flagship, a stylish auto-exposure only digicam that was designed to appeal to casual photographers and snap-shooters who value pocketability and dead simple operation. The consumer digicam market is ...

Pros: Great pics in low level light. Great skin tones
Cons: none yet.

I replaced my Sony DSC V1 camera with this DSC W200. My old Sony camera was very bad in low light and with the colors red and green. I took about 200 pictures when I got this camera and have seen great colors and clarity. I also was able to take low ...

Pros: small, sleek, lightweight, easy to use, crisp pictures (even in darkness).
Cons: short menu

I bought this camera after my Powershot failed a year and a half after I bought it. I absolutely love it!! I haven't had it too long, but so far it has done me well. It is compact enough for me to carry it in my small purse so I can bring it ...

Pros: Great size and battery life
Cons: Photos are fuzzy (lousy auto focus and steady-shot). Shutter delay is frustrating.

This camera takes worse photos than my previous 7.2mp point & shoot. Steady-shot is worthless. There is usually a 2 second delay between pushing the button and the photo actually being taken, so any non-posed shots are lost (animals and people move). I would return it if I could, so I should sell it on eBay.

Pros: -
Cons: -

Every now and then a camera comes along that makes parting with a kidney seem a fair swap, and Sony’s W200 certainly looks on paper like being a worthy candidate.
Backed by a 12MP sensor, everything here seems to have its purpose, with seemingly little room left over for frivolities. Manual exposure, spot metering, face-detection and Double Anti-blur Technology are driven by a Bionz image processor, and, as is typical on W series models, a viewfinder has been included alongside a 2.5in LCD screen. And despite a sub-standard 115k pixel resolution, even in bright conditions it exposes a much more accurate preview than many other compacts can manage.
Face-detection works impressively well, aggressively adhering its white frame to whatever face the camera encounters, while the camera feels solid and has good weight. Start-up and focusing times are equally impressive but possibly the finest aspect of the W200 is its interface, which improves on the versions seen on previous models and makes the camera a joy to use.
