Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W30

Digital Camera Review

The new 6 MP W30 and W50 have some serious features, including Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 3x optical zoom lenses, ISO settings of up to 1000 and – surprise, surprise – optical viewfinders, which are pretty rare for cameras in this compact class. The W50 retails for $250 and the W30 goes for $230. They’re both available this month.
