Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T9 Digital Camera First Look Review

“Arguably the best model yet in Sony’s diminutive Cyber-shot “T” series, the Cybershot T9 delivers good picture quality and a great feature set in a rugged, super-compact all-metal body. The 6.0-megapixel CCD is an nice feature in a camera this small, and the large LCD monitor is quite impressive as well. The T9 showed good image quality, with good color, and high resolution. Its image sharpness and noise levels aren’t quite up to the level of the best full-sized 6.0-megapixel cameras out there, but they’re very good for a subcompact model. Relative to competing full-sized digicams, the Sony T9 does have rather limited low-light capability and marginal flash power, but that’s to be expected in a camera of this size. The T9’s flexible exposure modes and features give the camera the versatility to handle most common snapping situations with aplomb. The camera’s light weight and portable size are perfect for travel. New features such as the Steady Shot option and the ability to download music for slide shows are interesting additions to the T-series as well, increasing the T9’s value and usefulness. Overall, the Sony Cybershot T9 is an excellent option for busy consumers looking for a tiny digital camera that performs very well as a point-and-snap. The Sony T9 is an easy Dave’s Pick.”

So says the The Imaging Resource review in their Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T9 Digital Camera First Look Review. I don’t know if the world is ready for a digicam as fashion accent, but lots of people do want a small and especially slim digital camera.
