Sony DSC-W710
By Brian Jones
This Sony digital camera is a great little point and shoot model that takes sharp, bright photos. The body is nice and compact as well. We were amazed by the sweep panorama mode, which let us create a panoramic shot by pressing the button and sweeping the camera around. For a relatively inexpensive $90, this camera has enough special features to get a lot of versatile out of it. The shutter speed is not as fast as it could be, making it hard to capture objects in motion where you want them, but blurriness is at a minimum. Overall, its compact size and picture quality make this a valuable camera purchase.
