Digital Camera Review

Another lean Cyber-shot T-model made its debut at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas. The DSC-T33 will go on sale in March for $450 (USD)—fifty bucks cheaper than its vanished predecessor, the Sony Cyber-shot T3. The T3 was announced last August, but never hit the market in the United States. Sony hopes to make it up with the Sony Cyber-shot T-33, which is nearly identical to the T3. Both cameras have 5.1 megapixels on their 1/2.4-inch CCDs. Both models share the same shooting options, 2.5-inch LCD, and 3x optical zoom lens. The only difference is the size.

Conclusion
The slim 5.1-megapixel Sony T33 will hit shelves March 2005 for $450 (USD). Its 1/2.4-inch CCD and Sony Real Imaging Processor are identical to its missing twin, the Sony T3, which never made its scheduled debut in the United States. These two digital cameras have the same large 2.5-inch LCDs and 3x optical zoom lenses, but differ in size and weight. The new T33 weighs 5.3 ounces, while the T3 is a heavier 6 ounces. The T33 is also thicker by a tenth of an inch. There aren’t many differences, so it’s good to see Sony coming out with a replacement for the missing T3. The Cyber-shot DSC-T33 is a strong point-and-shoot camera, offering ease of use to beginners as well as appealing to the crowd of users looking for style and portability.
