  Strengths: small and compact

  Weaknesses: weak shots, you have to stand absoulatly still otherwise you get a horrable really blurry shot. IT SUCKS, DONT BUY IT!!!!!!!!

  Overall: i have been looking to buy a new camera for a while. I looked at the cybershoot and it looked awesome. But dont let looks fool you. Its a waste of your money, features arent clear and picture quailty is really bad.

  Strengths: Small and easy to operate

  Weaknesses: Poor flash, poor picture quality

  Overall: Easy to store in your pocket but in my opinion it is not worth the money. My old Olympus d450 takes better pictures as well as my $149 Kodak (this takes amazing pictures}. The biggest problem with this camera is that pictures tend to blur in moderate to low light levels. Plan on about one third of your pictures coming out. As for the flash if it is not within 8 feet don't even think about it. If I had to rate this from 1 to 10 I would have to give it a 6.

  Strengths: smalllots of features5.1Mpquick picture taking2.5" screen

  Weaknesses: short battery lifeneeds a lot of adjustment for really good pictures - you must delve into all the settings and can't rely on auto modeweak flashno tripod mountpics not so sharp in low light

  Overall: a bit pricey, but if you look around online you can find it cheaper. I would probably get a different camera - there are so many great quality 5MP cameras out there for ~$300 that are better quality. It can take great pics, but you really have to know the adjustments because the automatic settings can't always be trusted. Once you get to know the settings and try different settings in different situations and practice you can get good pics. it's not too hard to get around in the advanced settings and you can get great pictures if you know what you're doing. Don't let the sleek sexy looks fool you, this is not a simple camera!

  Strengths: Size - Very small, smaller than the pics do justice for. Very solidly built. Good battery life. Very good picture quality.

  Weaknesses: No tripod mount. Size requires VERY solid handling when taking pictures (anything more than minimal movement will result in minor to sever blurring).

  Overall: I have read many reviews and this is a responce to many: Red-Eye is not an issue with this camera. Red-Eye reduction on the DSC-T1 defaults to off. Turn it on and your set. The flash is *NOT* weak. There are many different settings to this camera, though fairly intuitive you must read the manual. For dark settings you should be within 10 feet of the subject you are taking a picture of. The video quality on this camera is fantastic. The detail on day picutres is great.
