Recommended it? Yes

What, you may well ask, is "The Gasman" doing in "Electronics", attempting to review a Sony digital camera. I won't even try to pretend that I'm an expert on this product. I received it as a birthday gift and I've been experimenting with it for a week. Taking pictures of everything and anything,... Read full review »

Pros This camera has a very high pixel ratio, designed to help improve quality.
Cons This camera is incredibly expensive and hard to use without a tripod. 
Recommended it? Yes

I have not gotten the chance to buy this product, yet, but I most certainly will! I have rented one and used it accordingly.
