    4 Stars Sony Cybershot - great camera for the every-day photographer 09/06/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Looks good, good quality pictures, good range of functions

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Slight delay sometimes when taking photos

    Under no circumstances do I profess to be the next David Bailey; I do like a good camera though to capture those all important moments that we will treasure in years to come. Likewise, I am in constant search of that perfect image to print, frame and have hanging proudly on my living room wall. Much to the dismay of proffessional photographers I'm sure, I feel the need for them is dwindling in this day and age - with modren technology and cameras such as this one, the average person (potentially) has the ability to create an almost professional looking photograph without the need to re ... more

    5 Stars Quality camera for the casual user 04/04/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Looks good, takes good pictures, is a good size, IS CHEAP

    Disadvantages Disadvantages None for me

    I can't say I'm as technologically proficient as some of the others reviewing this product on the site, but I can say, for me anyway, this is a very good camera. Although the camera is not primarily in use by me - this is my sister's device - I've had time to come to grips with it and it's a pretty impressive model. We've been using this for about a year now, since an inferior camera took a slight fall during a drinking session and immediately got itself destroyed. With this camera, for everyday use like photographing day trips, holidays and nights out, I've still to come across any negatives ... more

    5 Stars Great Little Camera Review with images 01/08/2011
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Picture quality brilliant for the price, sturdy, light, nice looking

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Video not great, features can be confusing

    Sony are renowned for making quality products. This product lives up to these expectations, although there are a few niggles. First and foremost, this takes fantastic pictures without having to adjust any settings. If you want a point and click camera (which is what I wanted) then this would be a great choice. I have attempted to use the other settings, however I found them to be more trouble than they are worth. The pictures are outstanding in the mode the camera comes out of the box with and any tampering didn't get me any nicer pictures. The zoom is very good for the size of camera, it ... more

    4 Stars A Well-built Sony Digital Camera 23/02/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages see review.

    Disadvantages Disadvantages see review.

    Two years ago I bought this Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W510 camera to replace my outdated Samsung camera. Functionality: I'm not a technician. I just list the functionality of Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W510 in a short brief. Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W510 camera has a Super HAD CCD 12.1 Megapixel sensor. Compared to new camera it's just a basic supply. However it can meet your basic demand and give you good quality picture without any distortion. Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W510 camera has a built in flash, 4 x optical and face recognition. You can easily plug into your PC to transform pictures. It takes SD cards and a ... more

    4 Stars Say 'Cheap Cheese' With Sonys Reasonably Priced Camera 25/08/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good price, nice design, easy to use

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Battery life not the best on the market

    ~Technical Info~ 12 Megapixels 4x Optical Zoom 2.7 inch LCD Screen SteadyShot USB Cable ~Review~ I decided to buy a small resonably priced camera because I wanted one that was slightly better than my camera phone. Also I tend to just leave pictures on my phone or transfer them to my computer and never actually do anything with them. When they are on a camera I am more likely to print them off or make an album out of them. For the price there were a lot of options to choose from and I have to admit I was drawn to this one mainly because I like the look and feel of it rather and any technical ... more

    4 Stars The Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W510 - Suitable for New and Experienced U 29/10/2012
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages Good Range of Beginner Features

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Video not great - features can be confusing and hard to understand.

    One of the things that first impressed me with the Sony cyber-shot DSC W510 was the good range of ‘newbie-friendly’ features. This Includes things like face and smile detection amongst others. There are advanced features for the more experienced user such as manual ISO selection, exposure compensation plus metering and focus modes. The cyber-shots 4 x optical zoom is a strong selling point, starting at an impressive 26mm equivalent wide angle extending to 104mm. The camera itself is ideally suited for landscape and travel photography, this being mainly attributed to a superb wide angle ... more

    5 Stars Best value camera... EVER! 13/01/2013
    User recommends the product

    Advantages Advantages So so cheap without compromise on quality!

    Disadvantages Disadvantages Not too great in low light

    received this camera for Christmas from my mother. She isn't a technology sort of person and I suspect she bought this because of its very low price. However, she made a fantastic decision! The Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-W510 gives amazing quality images without knowledge of photography needed. However, for those with more knowledge in the art, it offers additional features for them such as the ability to adjust the ISO manually. One of the things I usually dislike with cameras, even if the images produced being perfect, is the LCD screen used to frame the picture being too low resolution. The screen ... more
