  • Abstract:  The Sony DSC W50 ticks all the right boxes. It scores highly for ease of use, low shutter delay, competitive pricing and picture quality. It is also one of the ever decreasing number of pocket sized digital cameras offering a viewfinder.

  • Great value, great overall performance, very good response times, extremely easy to use, small camera body
  • Probably will need to buy a second battery, LCD could be sharper, continuous-shot mode is somewhat limited
  • The Sony DSC-W50 digital camera provides a nice mixture of price, features, performance, and size, making it one of the better current models aimed at beginning photographers.The DSC-W50 offers 6.0 megapixels of resolution, which is enough for high-qu...

  • Very good image quality outdoors, Excellent Multipattern metering, Excellent colour rendition, Compression choice at all image sizes, Fast to operate and react, Excellent ergonomic design
  • Sensitive to noise at and above 200 ISO, Image compression a touch too strong at the highest image quality, Flash a bit too weak, Mediocre software
  • The Sony DSC-W50 belongs in that group of very compact cameras that are no bigger than a deck of cards. This particular model offers a 6-megapixel resolution, a Carl Zeiss 3X optical zoom, and a generous 2.5-inch monitor. The DSC-W50’s body is ...
