 Great little camera! February 27, 2008
Ive had my Sony DSCW30 for a little over a year now and it's one of the best little point and shoot cameras that I have ever owned. And I have had several:Nikon, Olympus, Cannon. Its a great little quick point and shoot, very quick power up and small and compact. Takes almost as good of pictures as my Sony H1. Ive taken it on several trips and its been nice to have such a small powerful camera in my pocket or the little belt pouch. Yes it does not take quality pictures like my DSLR, but its not made to. A very nice little camera and its not made of plastic, very sturdy built camera. GOOD JOB SONY!
GREAT PRODUCT February 6, 2008
This product has worked amazing for me. I have taken it to washington DC to San Fransisco and has taken amazing pictures for me. I used this camera for a Digital Photography class in a college and my work was just as good as people with more expensive cameras. It also took great pictures indoors and outdoors. The only slight bad thing was when using natural light the you need to turn flash on. I've also dropped this camera near 15 times and still no problems

For a point and shoot camera, I expect this thing to take decent pictures consistently. It doesn't.
I bought it for my girlfriend just over a year ago, and I still feel a little embarassed. Most of out pictures are taken at night, and indoors. To get a decent picture of a face or person I usually have to try almost every setting.... Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Portrait, Soft Light... then Flash Auto, Flash Off, Flash On, etc.
By the time I get a good picture, I've lost the moment and have to delete 6 or 7 all black or all white pictures plus some blurry ones. There are times when I take 4 or 5 pictures from the exact same place and the come out totally different, too black, too white, red or weird blurry.
I use my Nikon D40x for quality pictures and end up using my phone for candid shots instead of dragging this Sony arround.

I read all the reviews for this camera when I was trying to decide what new camera I wanted to get, and I was a little hesitant at first because there seemed to be a lot of people who found points of disappointment in it, but I'm glad I ended up making the choice that I did because this camera is GREAT. Looking at the other reviews, I realized that the people who were disappointed were the people who wanted more than a point and shoot.
If you just want to take pictures of your friends and good times, this is a GREAT camera. You have to hold it steady, like any other camera, and the flash can be a little bright, but that's easily adjusted with all the special features it has. It's incredibly easy to use, you barely even need the instruction manuel - especially if you've had a digital camera before - and I think that it's a fantastic price for what it is.
A couple other reviewers mentioned the size being a problem for keeping it in their pocket, maybe it's just because I had an older Sony digital but this thing is tiny! It easily fits in my pockets without hampering anything... of course tight tight jeans do seem to be in style lately but I'd think that kind of clothing would make it hard to fit ANY camera in it.
This camera is very light, it's incredibly easy to use, and it takes great pictures. It's a point and shoot, just don't expect it to be anything it's not supposed to be and you won't be at all disappointed!

With the credibility of Sony its the best digital camera available at the cheapest price. I bought this camera recently and it works perfect. No blurry images, excellent flash and complete redy-eye reduction. I highly recommend this camera.
