Sony DSC-W120 Digital Camera

The Sony DSC-W-120 Digital Still Camera s a very lovely introductory digital camera for the young relatives, or for somebody who wants to ‘point & shoot’, & end up with a lovely, crisp & clear picture. This camera is wonderful to use, with a mode dial that clearly tells you on the 2.5 inch High Definition LCD screen exactly what that mode is lovely for. You can also take movies with this camera, but i have not, & probably won't use that mode, since i have a lovely camcorder for that purpose.

This camera is very simple to use, & to upload pictures onto a computer, or view directly on a TV set (in high definition too!). You can focus on up to two faces, all babies, or 2 babies & an adult, etcetera, & leave the camera be. When four of the people that you have focus on smiles, a burst of 5 to 10 pictures is taken. The ultimate next step in simplicity if you are trying to get a picture of a smiling kid (i tried this so I know it works - you can use it to get a smirk from a dog!). This only works as long as nobody that you focused on moves any significant distance (more than a foot).

The handy mode dial on the side of the camera takes you through all of the shooting modes, & the purpose of the mode is explained on the LCD monitor for you, for simple usage. there is a very noticeable ’shake-free’ function, eliminating hand shake. The flash can even be set to only work, at whatever level is required, when it is required to make a crisp picture. The ISO level can be changed up to 3,000 (in automatic mode), shutter speed, spec value, white balance & automatic focus all make for wonderfully crisp, clear & colorful pictures. The blues of water can be enhanced using the ‘beach’ mode, to the point that the water looks better in the picture than in real life!
