Some of my friend have buyed a Digital Cam and... I was a little bit jealous... So I go to the nearest shop and I found this little cam... I have fall in love! :)
First of all, it's really easy to use! Sony made the little perfect cam in order to take good picture! ( so that I can take good picture ! LOL ) The picture quality is really good and the cam offerts some utilities in order to arrange a picture. There is 5 level for the picture VGA, 1, 3, 3:2 and 4 mega/pix.
The zoom goes to 6 to 18 mm ( Sony Lens/optical 3x ). Most probably perfect for someone that want to take a few good picture. If you need more zoom, there is an digital zoom of 3x ( 3 + 3 = 6 ) that you can do. We're losing some quality here, but... WHO CARES when the picture is to big for the pc screen ! :) ( When you resize the picture, the picture is beautiful! ) " Nobody needs a movie poster for EACH picture they take :) "
The video quality is very good... ( if you can have a 128 stick or more ). There is a little thing sad about the video, I am not able to zoom when I film!
You can see the pix one by one by using the hud( i guess that is the right word ) at the back of the cam. Or you can use the "multi pix " by screen in order to select the pix that you want.
The screen on the back of the cam is big enough for this type of cam. I can't imagine a bigger screen.
The memory stick of sony is fast. What I mean by fast? There is no need to wait more that 2 sec. if you want to see an old picture stored on the stick. The best thing to buy with this cam, is propably the memory stick pro 256 or more... ( This will be an another review... )
One thing that I HATE... it's the panel that protected the DC connector, USB connector and the connector for the TV... Is more than fragile. Each time that I need to open this, I am scared to broke my little lovely cam ;)
The DSC-P73 is powered by 2 little batteries... I must recharged after 1 or 2 month... and I believe them when they say : 210 minutes of works or 420 shots. It's really hard to put them down ( the batteries )
It's will be three month that I use it... And... For a little cam of 4.1 mega/pixel, heaven is really near ;)
In my city, the price for this little cam is 359$... So... I'm just a little bit mad ... to see how much you'll can buy it ! :s
Well, if you want to give a great gift... ;) don't be shy, take this one!
