Small package size, extensive options, quality images
8 of 10 found this helpful I've owned the camera for only a few weeks and haven't yet taken the time to sit down and become familiar with its full capabilities, but I've used it in a number of settings have have so far been satisfied with the entry stage performance.
The camera body it small and sturdy which makes it easy to transport, and comfortable for casual shooting. Sony also has a stylish and functional leather snap-on jacket case option which has a shoulder strap to increase the safety and ease of transportation.
As for use, I find the power button a little small and oddly located, but the shutter button/zoom rocker, mode dial, and option/setting wheel/buttons on the back are accessible and intuitive. There are a large number shooting modes, and an even larger set of setting optons. It's here that I find the number of options boarding on the edge of diminishing returns. There is so much content that the menu becomes a bit lengthy to navigate, and ensuring repeatable usage requires a bit of a time investment. I got burned on a large number of pictures before I discovered that I had toggled the focus into manual mode by inadvertently pressing the center menu button during shooting. I guess that's the cost of being a beginner user with advanced configuration.
That said, I had some gem photos that were extremely easily shot. I haven't analyzed the quality on a microscopic scale, but from a point, shoot, and review on a 15" display I was very happy with the visual quality.
