Sony DSC-H3 Cyber-shot Digital Camera Review

The SonyDSC-H3 Cyber-shot 8.1megapixel 10x optical zoom digital camera is an amazing product for the money spent. I bought the camera from a Best Buy store for $299.99. The camera was ready to use right out of the box. Well almost right out of the box, I had to charge the battery first which only took a couple hours and that gave me time to skim through the instruction manual and install the 1GB memory stick duo memory card I purchased which you will want to do if you decide to purchase this product. You can purchase memory all the way up to 8 GB.

The camera has some very nice features such as the super steady shot. The super steady shot allows there to be a little bit of movement on the user's part and not have to be totally motionless, and still be able to take crystal clear pictures. Having the 10x optical zoom is amazing, I love being able to take pictures of things that are far away and having them appear as if I were up close to them. A 2.5" LCD screen is more than enough screen to be able to preview the pictures you have taken.

The camera comes with a rechargeable battery and battery charger. The battery is a lithium ion type g battery. Also included with the camera is a USB, A/V cable for multi use terminal which is neat having them both on one cable instead of two different cables. Some of the other accessories included is a shoulder strap which fits around the users neck which in my opinion is better than a hand strap because you can just let the camera hang from your neck and still be able to use your hands for other things and not have to risk dropping the camera or trying to find a safe place to sit the camera down. The camera also comes with a lens cap with strap, lens hood and adaptor ring, and a CD-ROM and instruction manual book.

The Sony DSC-H3 camera not only takes stunning pictures it also can shoot video with sound. The camera is great for beginners all the way to the most advanced user. The menu options are easy to navigate and very well labeled. The only thing that I am not pleased with is the time it takes for the flash to recharge between pictures, it is by no means as slow as some cameras but not as fast as you would hope for. Over all I would give this camera a 5 out of 5 rank. I highly recommend this camera to anyone wanting a quality product.
