  • Great for simple photography, very rewarding!

    Perfect camera for simple point-and-shoot needs! I've had one of these all my life, & and my family has shot so many great memories of these little guys. Unfortunately, the family one broke recently, so I decided to buy a new one! This camera is from the 2000s, so I wouldn't recommend it if you want to do proper photography. But, I personally love using these cameras for parties, gatherings, etc. It is so easy to carry in my bag, or even my pocket! & in my opinion, it is so much more rewarding to snap pictures with this than my phone. I love the quality of the pictures it makes, & and I've captured so many new memories with this simple camera.

  • EASY TO USE WITH EXCEPTION

    + SIDE= easy to use; great pictures; plenty of features for a small camera. - SIDE= The Memory Stick storage device is useless because it is a proprietary item to the camera. In other words, if you have a built in Card Reader, chances are good you won't be able to use the reader...you MUST buy something totally different adding additional cost and frustration to relatively easy-to-use camera. Very bad idea from Sony!
