    Good Points: Great Looking, Does what is says on the 'Tin'


    Bad Points: You do get the odd occasional blurry image.


    General comments: Overall the Sony CyberShot DSC-P200 is a good camera, I have had mine for about 2 and a half year and it is great for what I need it for.

    The cost of repair is more than what I can buy a new camera for - thanks for nothing Sony.

    I have to say, on the whole I'm rather disappointed with the CyberShot P200, after reading such excellent reviews. What appealed to me most was the high resolution, battery life, feature rich, screen size and value for money. These did not fail to impress but disappointingly the picture quality and crispness left a lot to be desired.

    Nearly 50% of the pictures would appear clear on the camera screen but later prove blurred when enlarged on the PC. The camera required a very steady hand and an ...

    This Sony CyberShot DSC-P200 Camera is so typically Sony. It oozes quality. It's a joy to use and 7.2 Megapixels. Carl Zeiss lens! Amazing! Macro is pretty good too! If it were a laptop it'd be a vaio. What can I say?

    The great thing about his camera apart from it's superb design and ergonomics is that it's got an amazingly fast start-up time. The features are great (specially the pre-shot light) differing quality levels and I use it as a portable hard drive occasionally. The video qua ...

    The Sony CyberShot DSC-P200 digital camera has so far lived up to all my expectations, and beyond.

    The 7.2 mega-pixel facility means you can print crystal-clear prints on A4 photo paper, but most of the time the 5 mega-pixel setting is perfectly good enough for high quality images. As for reliability, the camera has never let me down. It has a solid metallic feel, which is sufficient to give a good hand-hold. I can't believe that some people feel the camera is now on the large side. If you g ...

    I purchased the Sony CyberShot DSC-P200digital camera before a trip to Floria last year. I am so so pleased with the quality of photos taken by the camera, which have fully captured the environment of Disney World and Epcot etc.

    The camera is a doddle to use. All the modes are on a dial on top of the camera, and I am so impressed with 'night-shot' mode, which enabled me to take a quite incredible picture of Cinderella's castle as it neared dark.

    I'm not a camera expert, but I can't see whe ...

    I bought a Sony CyberShot DSC-P200 camera after reading the many excellent reviews, the main attraction being the high resolution for the price. It is easy to use, although one minor gripe is the mode selection dial, which can be turned inadvertantly when getting it in and out of the case. This dial is also a little hard to read, but when you turn it the screen shows what setting you are on, so you can get around that.

    The camera feels solid and is obviously a quality build. It has plenty of ...

    I had the Sony CyberShot DSC-P200 digital camera bought for me as a present as I wanted one for around a year, but wish I didn't get it now I should have opted for a Samsung or Olympus etc.

    I first used it for 1 week and the flash broke. I had to send it back to a Sony Service Centre for repair. It came back 3 weeks later with a scratch on the LCD screen, so I sent it back again. 5 days later I received it back. The screen had been fixed, but now I had a big blob on the inside of the lens. So ...

    The Sony CyberShot DSC-P200 is first 'proper' digital camera, and one I'm happy to recommend to anyone. I paid a little bit more than I was intending to when choosing a camera, but I don't regret the extra spend at all.

    Firstly, it feels very solid in my hands. I've handled a few digital cameras before, and often they've felt a little bit 'brittle' or plastic-y, whereas the DSCP200 feels remarkably heavy for such a small camera.

    I don't know an awful lot about digital camera technology, bu ...

    The Sony CyberShot DSC-P200 is my first digital camera.
    I must say the quality is very good.
    I take pictures of fish, and the quality of the fish pictures have been excellent.
    I am very pleased with the camera.

    We have had the Sony CyberShot DSC-P200 camera now for 6 months and its proved to be excellent. Takes excellent quality pictures and video images. Easy to down load onto the laptop with Sony's memory stick.

    This is a great camera when there's enough light on the subject. The smart zoom is nice when you're not at full resolution, you get extra digital zoom without losing quality. The camera is pocket sized, and full resolution pictures look great. The flash is next to useless at anything more than 8'. I also wish it had a little better image controls. Very small in the way of in-camera fx. Basically b/w and sepia are all you get. Scene modes are hard to use. Auto takes pretty good pictures. Just rem ...
