Digital Camera Review

May 06, 2005 - By Emily Raymond
Digital camera manufacturers seem to be adding to the confusion surrounding the "need" for megapixels by equipping compact consumer models with increased resolution. Sony's version of this powerful compact camera is the Cyber-shot DSC-W7, a 7.2 megapixel digital camera in the "Wide LCD" series. Sony also packs in popular features such as a 2.5-inch LCD screen, 3x optical Carl Zeiss zoom lens, and 32 MB of internal memory. After the success of the earlier W1, Sony decided to expand the camera into an entire series marked by their large LCDs. The W7 packs in a lot of megapixels on its 1/1.8-inch Super HAD CCD and couples it with a Real Image Processor. Automatic, manual, and scene modes are all located on the mode dial, which is housed on top of the thick, durable metal alloy body. The boxy camera retails for $449.95 and is offered in black and silver casings.
