This was the best investment of a camera that I have ever done. I bought this camera on sale one day. I have LOVED it every since. Easy to use settings, great picture quality. I have never had a picture that printed grainy or blurry. Any size that I wanted to print too came out looking wonderful! Image Quality This camera takes great pictures. I can blow up the picture to any size I want and it prints awesome! Performance Easy to use. Love every picture that has been taken with it. Ease of Use Has great simple, point and shoot technology. But it also has the manual setting for all the big photographers out there. Durability I have had my camera for almost 10 years now. I LOVE it. It is still going strong. Never had any problem out of it. Battery Life The batteries that I had come with it are still the ones I use today almost 10 years later. They are starting to get to where I need to charge them most often, but they have lasted a long time! Portability It is a little bit bulky so if you are wanting a camera that is for every day use this might not be the one for you. I have a smaller point and shoot camera that I keep in my bag for every day pics, but I pull this one out when I know that I need great pictures.

It's a good camera for a beginner or intermediate photographer. It takes high quality photos and good quality videos.  I recommended it to my sister, who bought one too.  I use mine every day for just taking snapshots of the kid and cats, but I take it with me and use it along with my 35mm Canon when I shoot weddings, proms, baby and family portraits, and my freelance stuff.  I actually find myself using it MORE than the 35mm now, because film is expensive and the quality of these digital pix is so good.

I purchased my Sony Cybershot 4 years ago and am still very happy with it. It has an easy to use auto setting for point and shot picture taking and several additional settings for more advanced photography. The quality of the pictures is great whether I'm using them digitally or printing them out. Being a busy mom of 3 this camara has taken a beating and has held up to numerous vacations, along with my kids wanting to play photographer. Although it is easy enough to use that my 11 year old is able to take quality picture with it also. The cons are that it is very bulky and heavy. If you're looking for a small compact camara to put in your purse or pocket, this is not for you. Also the steady shot feature can be a pain if you're trying to get pictures of active kids as it does take time to process the frame.

I was looking for a new Sony camera and decided upon the Sony Cybershot H2.  I had read a few good things about it and decided to purchase it.  Bad mistake!  I have been very dissatisfied with this camera from the get go.  The shutter speed is very slow, the pictures all come out very blury--even with the steady shot on.  I would not recommend this camera to anyone!

This has got to be one of thw worst cameras I have ever owned.   When I first got it, I was excited, as I've always had Sony products, and with the exception of one DVD player, I've never had an issue.  Enter the DSC-H2. While it worked great for the first six months, the trouble begin shortly thereafter.  The Auto-Focus (AF) quit working after 6 months.  I had to PAY to ship it (under warrenty even) to have it "fixed".  It then worked ok for the next year until, just 3 days after the warrenty ran out, the AF broke AGAIN. I also have had issues when I turn the unit on and it won't start right - tells me to turn unit off then on again. Another issue with this camera is VERY SLOW lag time between taking pictures with and without a flash, although with a flash is a very long wait while the flash charges. I would not recommend this camera at all, nor any of the Sony line of cameras.

**Sony - Cybershot H2 Digital Camera is the best camera which I owned ever. ** **It takes pictures with good quality.It has a terrific zoom and it offers a good level of control for a beginner.It feels great in the hand and very easy to operate. It has nice size for the zoom and was well designed lay out. Another important feature is its weight. It is very low in weight than any other digital camera having almost the same features. Compact in size. ** **Pictures taken speed is also very good. ** **Another important feature is its video taking capability. No need to purchase a camcorder as with a high memory stick you can take good videos with great quality.** **Other features are really good. For taking pictures it has day mode, night mode, motion mode, sports mode, auto flash mode.It has a big LCD screen which enables you to view the picture nicely before taking.** **If I had one complaint, it would be the lens cap.My previous camera had automatic ones, and it can be a minor annoyance to remove it, but I'm being pretty picky here.**

I've had this camera for 2 years.  This is the 3rd digital camera I've owned and 2nd "zoom".  This camera is an improvement over the other zoom digital I owned, a Kodak 5 megapixel 10x optical zoom.  The pictures are definitely better throughout the zoom range.  When I bought this Sony, the only other camera I considered was a Canon S2 IS.  The two are pretty close quality wise.  This Sony can be used by 1st timers as a point and shoot, and others can use more maual settings.  Add ons include the usual assortments.  I like that this camera uses 2 aa batteries.  One can always use rechargables  that is cheaper in the long run.  The only thing that keeps me from rating this camera higher is the propriatary memory.  Memory sticks are more expensive than sd cards.

This takes wonderful pictures and the downloads to my laptop are a cinch. I have never enjoyed photography before this thing. I think it is really a great deal for the money. Mine was a gift but I would recommend it to anyone looking to buy. It's small and handy to carry around and fits easily into my hands for use.

I've had this camera for a little over a year and love it.  I've taken a ton of pics and love the quality. 12X Zoom - The zoom is great on this camera.  It's one of the reasons I bought it. 6 Megapixels - Sure, nowadays you can get much higher megapixel count for around the same price but unless you are planning on blowing up huge posters, 6 megapixels is all you'll ever need.  The quality is fantastic. Settings - This camera pretty much has all the settings you'll need.  From Sports / Landscape / Portrait / Twilight / Night / etc...... you can also go manual and set your aperature, shutter speed etc.....  Other - Camera has a timer which came in handy last vacation.  We put on a tripod and took some great pics of me and the wife on the beach.  There's also a feature which enables you to continually shoot which comes in handy at sporting events.  Batteries - Only takes 2 AA batteries and this camera doesn't burn thru them quick.  Battery life is great but you should still invest in a few rechargeables. Like I said, i've had this camera for over a year, taken around 5,000 pics and haven't had any problems.
