Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T100

Digital Camera Review

Jun 18, 2007 - By Emily Raymond
2.2 The Sony T100 spices up the ultra-slim digital camera market. It comes with 8.1 megapixels, a 5x optically stabilized zoom lens, face detection, and even high-definition output. The trendy and glittery T100 has an enormous 3-inch LCD screen and automatic exposure modes with a smattering of manual controls that makes it appealing to point-and-shooters. It costs $399 and stands at the top of the Cyber-shot T-series lineup.
