Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S600

Picture Quality / Size Options
The image size can be changed with the button in the bottom right corner of the camera. The image size button doubles as the delete button, so both icons are next to it. Users can select from the following image sizes: 6M, 3:2, 3M, 2M, VGA, and 16:9. The maximum image size is 2816 x 2112 pixels. Each of the sizes can be saved in Fine or Standard quality, although these options must be found in the menu.

The S600 offers lots of image size options uncharacteristic of a cheap camera. The 3:2 mode makes accurately framed 4 x 6-inch prints and the 16:9 mode can be used for wide screens. Ironically, there is no A/V cable to connect the camera to a widescreen television, so this size is completely useless.

Picture Effects Mode
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S600 has several picture effects, but they can only be used in the recording mode – users cannot add them later in playback mode. Basic Black & White and Sepia modes are offered. Contrast, Saturation and Sharpness all have High (+), Normal and Low (-) options. There are live views in the color mode menu, but not in the contrast, saturation and sharpness menus.
