Excellent Camera For A Great Price!!!

Pros Great quality, excellent video, durable, and cheap!
Cons Cannot zoom in video mode.
Recommended it? Yes

I am extremely satisfied with my digital camera. The pictures are as clear as I would ever need them. Even when I blow them up to fit an entire page, the printed image is not pixelated at all! The Sony Cyber-Shot has convinced me that 3.2 megapixels is absolutely enough. The Cyber-Shot also... Read full review »

SONY DSC-P72...Very good but not simple

byhalyardz Dec 14, 2003
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Light, easy to use for basics, fairly good optics.
Cons Moderately complex, display not accurate to PC output, software low average.
Recommended it? Yes

As with most DSCs it takes some time to learn all the functions and the results. Prime negative for us is that what you see on the display, in terms of contrast, colors, and brightness, ain't what you get once inside the PC.

One clear negative of the software that comes with the P72 is... Read full review »

Takes time to learn how to use, but it's worth it!

byhbuxton Jul 28, 2003
2 Helpfuls 3 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros It has tons of great features. You can even choose to make your picture black/white.
Cons It was difficult to learn to use all the great functions that it provides.
Recommended it? Yes

This is the first digital camera that I have owned. It has tons of features which were hard to learn to use in the beginning. And yet, I am a true beginner so, if I could figure it out, anyone can. You can set it to auto, but the pictures are better in quality when you manually adjust the lighting... Read full review »

Pros Great picture quality. Excellent low-light performance. Easy to use.
Cons Night shots aren't the greatest. Sony software is kinda weak.
Recommended it? Yes

Great performance for the price. This camera has plenty of features for the point and shoot picture taker. Easy to use with plenty of automatic modes. Plenty of user adjustments available. Nice zoom. Good size and weight. I got 150 pictures on one set of batteries with the screen turned off most of... Read full review »

Poor quality camera

bymtlion Dec 17, 2003
3 Helpfuls 4 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Compact
Cons Blurry pics, dark even w/flash, movie feature useless
Recommended it? No

This is my second digital camera. My previous was a low-end Sony. The DSC-P72 cannot begin to compare. Pictures cannot be taken indoors - the pictures are too dark even with the flash. The smart zoom indoors ends with dark and blurry pictures. More times than not, the picture is not the sharp... Read full review »

A Sony defect which is being ignored and probably not even reported

byhelgie Jul 24, 2005
1 Helpfuls 2 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros lovely pictures and simple to use (short term only)
Cons Yes - a total con!!!!
Recommended it? No

This is the second of these cameras I have purchased. One for my son and one for my Son in law. Beautiful pictures until as described by so many (without any warning) the lens would not open. This is most definitely a Sony problem and is not being addressed. A ridiculous amount is being asked for... Read full review »

Pros great outdoor shots
Cons see above
Recommended it? No

Okay, it takes nice pictures, really nice pictures, well, at least sometimes it does - and that's about it.
Here's what I had problems with:
1. You have to wait several seconds between pictures.
2. Don't even try standard batteries - there is a reason it comes with NIMH batteries... Read full review »

Pros none
Cons bad quality
Recommended it? No

A few weeks after purchase a Sony digital camera DSC-P72 (from a reputable store) it stopped working. Sony service center refused to fix it (actually it offered a repair for three times its original price!) saying the camera had water damage. They blamed me! Though I always handled it with great...

Sony Cybershot is fantastic!

1 Helpfuls 2 Helpfuls Was this review helpful? Comment
Pros Excellent photo quality, video movie mode is fantastic - even the audio records very well!
Cons Long wait between shots - I've missed several photo ops waiting for the shutter.
Recommended it? Yes

This digital camera is compact but not too small; it is a good-looking camera with no bulging parts like some other digital cameras, and the functions are easy to use. Read full review »
