The bad: No video outputs; few manual controls.
The bottom line: Solid high-ISO performance and a relatively wide-angle view are among the features that make the Sony Cyber Shot DSC-S600 a versatile budget-priced 6-megapixel camera for casual snapshooters. “

Sony Cyber Shot DSC-M2 - Review @ CNET
David D. Busch has posted his review on Sony Cyber-shot DSC-M2, a 5.1 megapixel point-and-shoot digital camera with 3x Optical Zoom and 2.5 inch Hybrid LCD screen.
“This camera produced attractive photos and movies. Colors look neutral and pleasing, especially in the flesh tones. However, exposures tend to favor the shadows, which means lots of blown highlights. As with the previous model, details tend to be masked by excessive compression artifacts. Backlit subjects produce chromatic aberration, which appears as moderate purple fringing.
The Sony Cyber Shot DSC-M2’s biggest issue is excessive noise, which is visible even at lower ISO speeds. While not too bad at ISO 64, by ISO 160 it became objectionable, and at ISO 400, the multicolored flecks took on a life of their own. Since this camera’s slowest shutter speed is 1/8 second and the electronic flash is so anemic, the DSC-M2 is probably not the best choice for nighttime or party shooters. “

Sony Cyber-shot H5 and H2 - Preview @ DigitalCameraInfo
Emily Raymond had her hands on the new Sony Cyber-shot H5 and H2, a point-and-shoot digital camera with 7.0 megapixel (6.0 mp for H2) CCD sensor, a huge 12x optical zoom (equivalent to 36 - 432mm), 2.5″ LCD screen display
“The H5 just might have it. The construction is lightweight and portable and still fairly sturdy. It has manual functionality and a few scene modes to boot. It has manual functionality and a few scene modes to boot. The new cameras have a wide ISO range from 80-1000, making low light photography possible without the use of the flash.
The Sony H2 isn’t quite as inspiring as the H5, perhaps because it is simply overshadowed by it. The H2 has a slightly smaller frame because of its slightly smaller 2-inch LCD screen. The 6 megapixel digital camera has the same 12x zoom lens and same modes and features, but the relatively small LCD has very poor 85,000-pixel resolution. “

Sony Cyber-shot DSC M2 - Review @ Steve’s Digicams
Steve’sDigicams has posted his review on Sony Cyber-shot DSC-M2, a 5.1 megapixel point-and-shoot digital camera with 3x Optical Zoom and 2.5 inch Hybrid LCD screen.
“I was pleased with the image quality of the M2’s 5M Fine mode. Outdoor images were well-exposed and sharp with true to life colors. Our indoor shots were also sharp well-exposed, although the M2’s limited (8 feet) flash range restricts subjects to small rooms and portraits of very small groups. Portraits had realistic skin tones, but red eye reduction flash mode proved ineffective in dim ambient lighting.
Image quality was good at low sensitivity settings, with an almost undetectable amount of noise in shadow areas at ISO 64. Shadow noise grows to a detectable amount at ISO 100, and at ISO 200 it becomes detectable in highlight areas. ISO 400 produces noticeable noise throughout the image along with some loss of detail, although the images are usable.”

Sony Cybershot DSC-S600 - Review @ Steve’s Digicams
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S600 has been reviewed at Steve’s Digicams. Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S600 is a 6.0 megapixel point-and-shoot digital camera with 3x optical zoom (31-93mm) and and 2″ LCD screen.
“The Sony Cyber-shot S600 is a very good all-around performer. It shuns ultra compact styling and the trend of providing a 2 1/2-inch LCD without an optical viewfinder, instead providing a versatile set of features that are useful in every day shooting situations; I especially liked the S600’s wide angle zoom range, very powerful flash and versatile range of sensitivity settings. With very good image quality, 6-megapixels of resolution, high-quality movies and an MSRP of under $200, the Sony DSC-S600 is a terrific value, especially if you shoot a lot of indoor family events.”

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-M2 - Review @ DCResource
Jeff Keller has posted his review on Sony Cyber-shot DSC-M2, a 5.1 megapixel point-and-shoot digital camera with 3x Optical Zoom and 2.5 inch Hybrid LCD screen.
“Camera performance was very good for the most part. The M2 starts up quickly, focuses without delay, and shutter lag was not a problem. The burst mode was impressive, though only four photos are taken. Battery life, while better than on the original M1, is still not great.
Overall the DSC-M2’s photo quality is very good. Images were well-exposed with accurate color and low noise and purple fringing levels. The only issue I have is that photos seem a little “muddy” at times, with details looking more smudged than sharp (you’ll especially notice this on things like grass, shrubs, and trees).”

Sony Cybershot DSC-T9 - Review @ ImagingResource
ImagingResource has reviewed the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T9, a very slim 6 megapixel (CCD) point-and-shoot digital camera with 3x optical zoom and 2.5″ LCD screen.
“The Sony DSC-T9’s images are slightly soft overall, escaping any strong over-sharpening or edge enhancement on the camera’s part. (Edge enhancement creates the illusion of sharpness by enhancing colors and tones right at the edge of a rapid transition in color or tone.)
… 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 shooting situations with aplomb. 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-shoot.”
