Sony CyberShot DSC-H5 – Review @ CNET
CNET have published their review of the Sony Cyber-shot H5, 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), and 2.5″ LCD screen display.
“Photos from the Sony Cyber Shot DSC-H5 had natural, accurate colors that were neither over- nor undersaturated. As with the Cyber Shot DSC-H2, manual white balance provided the most neutral results with our tungsten test lights, while the tungsten setting came a close second. The auto setting turned in slightly warm photos with our lights, though it did a good job in daylight. Exposures were generally accurate. Very modest purple fringing turned up in high-contrast areas, but it was less prevalent than in shots from the DSC-H2.”

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H5 – Review @ DCRP
DCRP have published their review of the Sony Cyber-shot H5, 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), and 2.5″ LCD screen display.
“Camera performance was above average in most areas. The H5 starts up in an average 2.2 seconds, but once you’re up and running everything is snappy. Focus times are quick, shutter lag was not an issue, and shot-to-shot delays are minimal…Overall the DSC-H5 produced very good quality photos. The photos were well-exposed with pleasing colors and low noise levels considering the resolution of the camera. Sharpness levels were right where I like them — not too sharp, not too soft. My only complaint is that purple fringing levels are higher than I’d expect these days.”

Sony CyberShot DSC-T30 – Review @ DPInterface
DPInterface have recently published their review of the Sony CyberShot DSC-T30, a 7.2 megapixels (CCD sensor) point-and-shoot digital camera with Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 3x Optical Zoom lens (38-116mm equivalent), built-in image stabilisation, and a huge 3.0″ LCD screen.
“Barrel and pincushion distortion are not noticeable. There is little chromatic aberration (color fringing) and the T30 had very slight problems differentiating the two purples. The image quality of the Sony Cyber-shot T30 is very good and deserves my acknowledgment.
…In case you haven’t gotten the point yet, I like the Sony Cyber-shot T30 (very much!). While it’s not the perfect ultra-compact, it is perfect for most shooting conditions. It’s a great overall camera and I highly recommend it to those who want pocketable performance.”

Sony Cybershot DSC-H2 – Review @ DigitalCameraReview
DigitalCameraReview have recently published a review of the Sony Cybershot DSC-H2, a 6.0 megapixel CCD sensor point-and-shoot digital camera featuring a 6.0 megapixel CCD sensor, huge 12x optical zoom (equivalent to 36 – 432mm), and a 2.5″ LCD screen display.
“Overall, I was impressed with the image quality of the H2. Colors were accurate and a bit “punched up”. Images showed good detail at varying focal lengths with good sharpness out to the edges. The auto white balance did a good job in mixed lighting and skin tones looked natural and not too reddish.In tricky lighting conditions (shady areas with bright sunlit areas), the camera had a tendency for overexposure. If you notice this, just bump down the exposure compensation until the image suits you.”

Sony Cybershot DSC-T30 – Review @ DCRP
DCRP’s Jeff Keller has recently published a review of the Sony CyberShot DSC-T30, a 7.2 megapixels (CCD sensor) point-and-shoot digital camera with Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 3x Optical Zoom lens (38-116mm equivalent), built-in image stabilisation, and a huge 3.0″ LCD screen.
Photo quality was very good in most situations. The T30 typically took well-exposed photos with accurate color and low noise levels. Speaking of noise, you’ll be able to make large prints through ISO 200, and maybe at ISO 400 as well (noise reduction software will certainly help here). The ISO 800 and 1000 settings weren’t very impressive, with lots of noise and noticeably worse color saturation. Purple fringing levels were above average, and redeye was a big problem as well. The T30 probably isn’t the best choice if you shoot under unusual lighting, as my macro test shot hopefully showed. If you do a lot of that then you’ll probably want to find a camera with a custom white balance feature.”. “

Sony CyberShot DSC-W70 – Review @ DPInterface
DPInterface have recently published a review of the Sony CyberShot DSC-W70, a 7.20 megapixel CCD sensor point-and-shoot digital camera with 3x optical zoom (equivalent to 38 – 114mm ), and 2.5″ LCD screen display.
“Well, no problem up till ISO 400. Things are sharp and colors look natural. At ISO 800, the colors look less vivid but noise is still fairly low. At ISO 1000, there’s quite a bit more noise and things are smudgy. There was chromatic aberration (Color fringing) throughout the range.Barrel and pincushion distortion were both not very evident. Red-eye was in some people photos though. The image quality of the Sony Cyber-shot W70 is very good though at ISO 1000, things look less usable compared to that of the W50.”

Sony Cybershot DSC-H2 – Review @ ImagingResource
ImagingResource have recently published a review of the Sony Cybershot DSC-H2, a 6.0 megapixel CCD sensor point-and-shoot digital camera featuring a 6.0 megapixel CCD sensor, a huge 12x optical zoom (equivalent to 36 – 432mm), and a 2.5″ LCD screen display.
“Typical of consumer digicams, the Sony DSC-H2 does tend to oversharpen its image a bit, but exposure is usually quite good, with or without flash. Sharpness can be adjusted in the menu, as can contrast and saturation, so the user has some control over how the camera renders its images. Actually, “control” is probably the best way to describe the Sony H2, because it offers a very simple interface, yet perhaps the most control over light gathering of any camera in Sony’s lineup. It’s that huge focal range that gives you such a feeling of power: With just the press of a button, you’re suddenly all the way across the house to where junior is making a silly face, and you’re more likely to get a sharp shot with the help of the Super SteadyShot.”

Sony Cybershot DSC-W30 – Review @ CamerasUK
Cameras.co.uk have just recently posted a review of the Sony CyberShot DSC-W30, a 6.0 megapixel (CCD) point-and-shoot digital camera with Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar 3x optical zoom lens (38 – 114mm equivalent), and a 2.0″ LCD Screen.
“The outdoor landscape shots are good without ever quite achieving the highest marks. Colours are strong and the camera does a good job of handling contrast in the lightest and darkest areas of each shot. The sharpness of a shot is one of the most critical factors in my opinion. Here the camera does well compared to many others, but does not quite challenge the better compact models. In fairness when you consider the price and design of this camera I think perhaps I am expecting too much of it. “

Sony Cybershot DSC-S600 – Review @ Cameras.co.uk
Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S600 has been reviewed at Cameras.co.uk. 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.
“Starting with the outdoor landscape type shots I have no major complaints. Focusing is good and there is only minimal loss of sharpness as you move out away from the centre of each photo. Areas of contrast are handled well and the camera handles dark and light areas without much of a problem. It also copes with glare from the sun too… The indoor portrait is excellent. With many cameras at the lower price end of the market you find indoor and lowlight photography is a serious weakness. The DSC S600 produces a well focused and well lit shot. There is a touch of red eye, but this is actually less than the majority of digital cameras tend to produce. “
