Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P10 Review

by Alan Stafford

- What's Hot: The Cyber-shot DSC-P10 is perfect if you want as much resolution as you can get without having to play whack-a-mole with a lot of buttons and menu selections. It operates quickly and very quietly; it's one of the quietest cameras we've tested recently. Like most Sony models, its menus are mostly easy to decipher and, like the lens, quick. Most pockets will accommodate the P10--it's small and light, especially for a high-resolution model. An illuminator helps the camera focus in dim settings. You can capture 640 by 480 movies; that's high resolution compared to other digital cameras, most of which only go to 320-by-240.

User Reviews for Sony DSC-P10 Cyber-shot Digital Camera (Sony-DSCP10)

Reviewed by: Piasan

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: There are none

Weaknesses: Think of anything and it is sure to be a weakness for this camera

Overall Evaluation: Here are only a few comments:1) Even though I read the instruction manual thoroughly, most of the pictures are out of focus.2) If I take pictures outside in sunlight, the exposures are so washed out you can't even make out what the picture is supposed to be. (Like shooting 400 speed film in bright sunlight with a time exposure)3) Flash pictures made indoors appear to be time exposures with background lighting taking preference over the flash.4) The battery is a proprietary item and is hard to locate a dealer that carries them.This camera is truly a piece of crap. Unfortunately I paid a good price for this worthless piece of trash.

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Long battery time. Easy to use design.

Weaknesses: Blurry shot problems. Slow between shots. Limited options.

Overall Evaluation: Would not recommend this to an average user. Fortunately, for me, this was a hand-me-down from my parents because they experienced blurring problems. I get them too. Have used this on a wide variety of applications and have not been impressed with the results. Results are satisfactory in some cases, but never spectacular.
