| Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W230 |
| Full review » Scoreboard » Features » Gallery » |
The $200 price range is one of the most popular places to be for a consumer on a budget, and with so many options, it can be overwhelming at times. The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W230 was a great overall performer that actually gave us a decent image performance. The Cyber-shot DSC-W230 didn't offer any state-of-the-art bells and whistles, but it did provide plenty of features to suit a variety of shooting environments. We liked the large LCD, but the rest of the camera was just a collage of things we’ve seen time and time again in this class. For a $50 price hike, shooters can spring for the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W290, which features a 28mm wide-angle lens, 5x optical zoom and 720p HD video recording. The Canon PowerShot A1100 IS is the Cyber-shot DSC-W230's main contender, and we think the Canon took the edge in this competition. It still doesn't mean the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W230 isn't worth taking a gander at, but we strongly recommend playing the field before settling down with this model. Release: April 2009. Price: $200.
Pros: Decent feature set for an entry-level compact. Some impressive image quality. Large LCD.
Cons: No viewfinder. Design—been there, done that. No standout features.

| Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T90 |
| Full review » Scoreboard » Features » Gallery » |
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T90's pretty colors and sleek, sliding faceplate alone will sell this camera. Oh, there's also the 3-inch all touch-screen LCD and babbling brook of Auto features like Smile Shutter and Blink Warning. However, we discovered that the Cyber-shot DSC-T90's image quality did not have enough stamina to endure a majority of our tests. We found some echelon of failure in every image, which was a major letdown. If Facebook is your primary photo album, you'll do fine with the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T90. However, those who don't plan on snapping covert images of drunk people late at night and tagging the most embarrassing ones will feel at a loss. Advanced features are on the slim and there's no onboard connectivity. The Cyber-shot DSC-T90 is yet another vain fashion compact, but if you can live without a larger high-res touchscreen, it'll at least cost you $110 less than the DSC-T900. Release: April 2009. Price: $270.
Pros: Sexy looks. Great Auto controls. Super compact.
Cons: Sad image quality. Testy interface. Limited advanced features.

Here is yet another smart looking faceplate slider from Sony, this year with even more style and a shutter button zoom toggle. But is that it? Sadly, it is. Not much has changed under the hood, other than a megapixel boost and 720P high-definition video recording. Image quality was even less impressive than last year's Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700 and the prodigious touch-screen LCD exhibited the same testy behavior as well. At 380 smackers, its difficult to justify the purchase of this little devil dressed in red, but brand loyalists and fashion-conscious consumers will scoop this slim temptation up without a second thought. Oh, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T900 will sell, no doubt. But don't go crying on the mountain when you find out its image quality and features don't match the camera's looks. Release: April 2009. Price: $380.
Pros: Sexy design. Massive LCD. Easy to use.
Cons: Mediocre image quality. No onboard connectivity. Limited features.

The prognosis is just as we expected. Sony's top of the line fashion cam is just another cute accessory packed with many consumer-driven features. And there's nothing wrong with that. The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700's fans would not have it any other way. Who wants to fiddle with Shutter Speed or Aperture while you're half in the bag at an Armani show? The Cyber-shot DSC-T700's offers a slew of playback features, is fully touch-screen operated and can fit in a wallet—a very big wallet that is. Perhaps the most tantalizing spec is the built-in 4GB of internal memory. How many other cameras do you see with that much space? Between the giant LCD, sexy colors and hot design, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700 has its place within the digital camera world. Release: September 2008. Price: $350.
Pros: Huge LCD screen. Super Compact. Sleek design.
Cons: Inconsistent image quality. Stubborn interface. Minimal manual controls.

| Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T77 |
| Full review » Scoreboard » Features » Gallery » |
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T77 holds a definitive place for the fashion-conscious consumer crowd. It's sleek, sexy and comes in a variety of hot color options. The DSC-T77 also has a slick sliding faceplate and an ample touch screen LCD. Unfortunately, the LCD screen didn't live up to our expectations and the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T77's image quality proved to be lacking in many aspects. Playback is probably the best part, allowing shooters to perform Photoshop-esque image modifications in camera. Those looking for a plethora of manual controls and shooting options will be disappointed while those who crave the latest in swanky digital imaging will fall head over high heels for the DSC-T77. Release: September 2008. Price: $255.
Pros: Hot looks. Great playback features. Super compact.
Cons: Mediocre image quality across the board. Poor touch screen response. Minimal manual controls.
