Sony Cybershot DSC-H2 6MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilization Zoom Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)[...]
This camera lives up to all of the expectations set by these reviews (as well as others) and the reviews on Amazon. I could do a write up, but the reviews posted on the sites above go into far greater detail than I could ever do and show comparison photo's to boot. What I can do is give you my reaction to this camera now that I have it in my hands...
PROS:
1 - Super easy to use, out of the box experience. Pop in some AA batteries and you'll be shooting photos in just a few seconds.
2 - Speaking of batteries they are the AA batteries you already have in your house. I have kids so I am already using rechargeable batteries.
3 - Image quality is great!
4 - Supplied software is fantastic for storing photos - I love it already.
5 - Fits very nicely in your hands.
6 - Very intuitive controls. You can jump from full auto to full manual with ease.
7 - Very quick shutter lag.
8 - Nice burst mode.
9 - Functional image stabilization
10 - 12x optical zoom is superb; 24x digital zoom actually works with no image degradation.
CONS:
1 - Low light focusing is too soft. You will need to manually adjust for this in very low light situations (like taking a photo of cereal boxes inside of a kitchen closet with no light on).
2 - Higher ISO settings are too noisy (anything above 200). The built in flash will correct for this in many situations, but not all of them. They could have used better algorithms.
3 - LCD could have been larger, but it is not worth paying extra for (for example the H5).
OTHER:
1 - There have been some reviews here that have lamented the "special" USB connection on the cable. To be accurate the cable supplied by Sony has a standard USB interface for the PC end and a standard micro-USB for the camera end. The micro-USB interface is the exact same one used by my Blackberry phone, my SanDisk MP3 player and my Cannon PowerShot camera. There is nothing special about it.
2 - Some have commented about this camera is not able to write to non-Sony memory sticks. While this was true for the first batch of these cameras that were released, Sony has since provided free downloads to correct for this. The newer cameras come with this new software already installed. I have a non-Sony meory stick in my camera and it works just fine.
