Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T1 Digital Camera Review

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T1 is a quintessential point-and-shoot camera, intended for a higher-end audience that wants both strong digital still and video imaging and performance, combined with a sleek and slender design. This camera has an impressive CCD (5.1 megapixels at 0.42 inches), a huge 2.5-inch LCD screen, and a 3x optical zoom, though no viewfinder. The Cyber-shot boasts a Sony Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar Lens and a Real Image Processor, making the DSC-T1 capable of capturing both digital still images and video/audio footage, with video footage coming in at a superb 30 fps. Its overall dimensions are 3.625 x 2.375 x 0.8 inches, for a total cubic volume of approx. 6.9 inches –about the size of a credit card. The layout is logical and sparse, allowing for immediate results with little confusion. It has a retail price of US $499.95.
