Summary: My DSCW170 Review
Comment: I purchased this camera over a month ago and have taken a couple hundred pictures with it so far. The picture quality is incredible for such a small "pocket" camera. The camera itself appears to be well made. The battery/card compartment is nicely laid out. The door to this compartment looks/feels like it is a little cheap. Although I haven't had a problem with mine what-so-ever, I believe if you weren't paying attention while opening or closing this door, you could force it easily enough and possibly break/damage it. This is the only possible problem I can see having with the camera other than dropping it.
I really like the big disply in the back and the "stable" feature. It REALLY cuts down or just about eliminates blurry pictures. The camera I had before this was the Sony Cybershot DSCS730 7.2MP Digital Camera with 3x Optical Zoom. That camera was ok, but I had blurry pictures it seemed 1/2 the time.
I really like and use the Red Eye fix feature in the camera which takes the Red eye out after taking the picture and while reviewing your pictures. The "smile" feature the camera has really works and is quite incredible. I've used it with family or group photo's. The camera wont take a picture until one person which you can select actually smiles. Very cool....I didn't think this feature would actually work, however it does, and does well.
Another nice feature I like and use frequently is the ability to plug the camera in to the TV and watch the photo's. It comes across on the TV like a computer screen saver. The photo's come and go and there's even music if you want it. Or you can just manually scan through the pictures on the camera and watch them with the family on the TV instead of all huddleing around the computer monitor.
Finally, if you have big fingers, I think this camera could be a little difficult to operate. Some of the buttons and the dial in the back could be hard to operate.
Unless something mechanical happens to this camera, I think I've finally found the right "point and shoot" camera for me.

Summary: Good deal on DSCW170
Comment: I was impressed how fast my camera had been delivered. I ordered it in the morning - between 4 and 5 am on Wednesday, and on Friday I had it delivered! Amazing! Camera works great. Well, Sony is trying to keep its brands up to the mark: no matter what products are. Excellent brand, nothing else to add.

Summary: Sony Cybershot DSCW170/R 10 with 5X Optical Zoom
Comment: I researched and compared cameras for a couple of months before deciding on this one. I also have a Sony Cypershot 15Xzoom DSC-H7. We bought a Nikon Coolpix L18 for our son, which I would NOT recommend. To me Sony's are the best! My little red Cypershot is GREAT! To this day, I still haven't sat down and looked at the manuel, but it's so easy to use, takes great pictures and it fits in my pocket or purse. I'm sure once I really check out what all the features of this camera, I'll find it even better! Thanks!

Summary: Excellent point and shoot
Comment: I had the 7.2 MP cybershot and this is an excellent upgrade. I am still able to use my base memory sticks and the quality of images have been great.

Editorial Reviews:

The Sony DSC-W170 features an enviable 10.1-Megapixel resolution, Carl Zeiss 5x optical zoom lens, and Sony's Double Anti-Blur solution for crisp, clear images with a sophisticated, compact body. A large, bright 2.7" Clear Photo LCD display includes an anti-reflective coating that provides for excellent visibility to help you compose, view, and share photos with superb clarity and color reproduction, even in bright sunlight. In addition, Face Detection technology, Smile Shutter, and Intelligent Scene Recognition elicit stunning detail from special moments. High-resolution images can be enjoyed in 16:9 High-Resolution Mode simply by connecting the camera directly to a Sony BRAVIA HDTV or other compatible HDTV with an optional cradle for optimal HD playback. Because an off-center subject can make your shot more interesting, a 9-point auto-focus measures the focus at 9 precision points instead of 5 for a greater creative freedom to compose your image. Super SteadyShot(R) Optical Image Stabilization compensates for shaky hands and minimizes blur with optical sensors that detect camera movement and send correcting signals to a stabilization lens. Shutter Speed - Auto (1/4 - 1/1,600) / Program Auto (1 - 1/1,600) Aperture Range - Auto (F3.3/F8.0 (W), 2 steps) / Program auto (F3.3/F8.0 (W), 2 steps) with ND Filter White Balance - Automatic, Cloudy, Daylight, Fluorescent 1, Fluorescent 2, Fluorescent 3, Incandescent, and Flash Movie Modes - MPEG VX Fine with Audio (640x480 at 30fps), MPEG VX Standard with Audio (640x480 at 16fps), Presentation (320 x 240 at 8fps) Scene Modes - Beach, High Sensitivity, Landscape, Snow, Soft Snap, Twilight, and Twilight Portrait Flash Modes - Auto, Forced On, Forced Off, and Slow Synch In-Camera Editing - Red-eye reduction, soft edge filter, cross filter, partial color filter, and fish-eye filter
