With 7.2 MP imaging, high sensitivity and up to 460-shot1 Stamina battery power, the Cyber-shot DSC-S700 digital camera is an ideal camera for starting out, stepping up or making the switch from film to digital. Its 3X optical zoom lens, 24MB internal memory capacity and bright 2.4 LCD screen add up to a great combination of high-value features for first-time users. Boasting a sophisticated metal body, compact design and affordable price, the DSC-S700 easily fits into your travel plans or budget. More megapixels give you more detail and definition when you make big prints or crop in tight on your subject. The advanced Super HAD (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise. The 3X optical zoom helps bring distant subjects closer and lets you frame shots quickly for better composition, a real advantage for family sports, outdoor fun and travel photos. minimize

5 Star Review CyberShot DSC-S700

Strengths:

Under $100 for 7.2MP Camera

Weaknesses:

No image stable

Posted Nov 25, 2007 - This camera is easy to use turn it on point and shoot. It has 3X optical zoom capability and additional features that will satisfy most photographers. I believe the Sony DSC-S700 is a great camera for the money and a wonderful gift for the amateur user.

5 Star Review Black Friday Deal

Strengths:

Megapixels, ease of use

Weaknesses:

Motion picture quality

Posted Dec 8, 2007 - Pictures look clear, memory stick is expensive but for a 2 gig at $15 on sale the camera was worth the savings. 3x optical zoom and 2x digital zoom is plenty of zoom for the things I take pictures of.

4 Star Review Overall good camera

Strengths:

Image quality, compact size, large LCD

Weaknesses:

AA batteries; unable to zoom in on pictures and save them as adjusted on the camera, must do it on PC.

Posted Nov 23, 2007 - This camera has excellent image quality. Although it uses Memory Stick, black Friday sales had memory sticks at very reasonable prices, comparable to SD memory. The dial selector for different picture modes is easier and faster than having to scroll through on-screen menus.

4 Star Review Sony DSC-S700

Strengths:

Small size, uses only 2 AA batteries instead of more expensive proprietary batteries, 2.4 inch LCD screen, 7.2 megapixels, and very easy to use

Weaknesses:

The video quality is not the greatest, uses more expensive Memory Stick Pro Duo cards (but these are continuously dropping in price)

Posted Jul 7, 2007 - For the price, this is a great camera. It takes really nice pictures, and like most Sony cameras, it is really easy to use. I would recommend investing in a decent set of rechargeable AA batteries, however. The camera starts up quickly and has a lot of nice features. This camera is a great value.

4 Star Review Sony DSC-S700 Great camera great price

Strengths:

easy to use, pocket size, uses only AA batteries, 2.4 inch LCD screen, 7.2 megapixels

Weaknesses:

Slow response time between pictures, movie settings are lacking

Posted Nov 27, 2007 - The Sony DSC-S700 camera is easy to use entry level camera. With 7.2 megapixels, users can enjoy taking high quality pictures and printing pictures at home. The camera uses 2 AA batteries which are widely available. Rechargable batteries are recommended. The camera does have a movie mode, but don't expect high quality movie clips. This is a great affordable camera and great for new users or point and click users.

4 Star Review Great Camera - Great Price

Strengths:

Picture Quality

Weaknesses:

Weight

Posted Dec 12, 2007 - The DCS-S700 takes great pictures right out of the box. I added some additional memory and was able to take many pictures during a vacation. The camera took the pictures quickly and were very crisp and clear when uploaded. Great camera for the price.

4 Star Review Value for Money!

Strengths:

Price, Solid, Stable

Weaknesses:

No digital zoom

Posted Nov 24, 2007 - Great Camera for the price. So far I have not had any problems with it and it takes great sharp pictures. It does not have digital zoom though, but I don't use digital zoom anyway, it makes the picture less sharp and may even get pixelated. This camera is easy to use turn it on point and shoot. I believe the Sony DSC-S700 is a great camera for the money and a wonderful gift for the amateur photographer in your family who just wants to capture the moment.

Strengths:

good image quality ,Quick performance and excellent battery life

Weaknesses:

slow flash recharge time

4 Star Review Great entry-level digital camera

Strengths:

large LCD screen, dial selector and function explanations, easy to use, ergonomic, 7.2 MP, slick design, compact size, price

Weaknesses:

can only use memory sick duo (more expensive than SD cards), long loading time when reviewing pictures, few manual controls,

Posted Dec 28, 2007 - At first, I received a defective unit but Staples shipped me a new one quickly. I hope the new one will be as reliable as my old CyberShot, which is still functional today after three years of use. This is a very good entry-level digital camera. For this price, it's hard to find anything close to this camera in terms of performance and style. Its design is slick compared to other cameras in this price range. A thinner body would be a little better though. Its large LCD adds both functionality and style to the camera. You have to use it to take and review photos. It's bright and clear so I wouldn't mind totally depending on it. The dial selector lets you choose a number of modes depending on the situation. That's perfect for a photography beginner. The only drawbacks are Sony's proprietary Memory Stick Duo and noticeably longer loading time when reviewing pictures. But I guess paying extra for a Memory Stick is the price you have to pay for a more stylish cheap digi cam. Overall, very satisfied and would recommend it.

4 Star Review Sony Cybershot DSC-S700 Digital Camera

Strengths:

Picture, Price, ISO

Weaknesses:

Expensive Duo-pro card, Date-time embed

Posted Dec 29, 2007 - I bought this camera for my regular use. Picture quality, movie mode is good. It has ISO feature too. As usual, sony camera is not compactable with other card, so, we have to buy expensive duo card. Further, I did not find any option to embed Date & time inside the photo. I had taken the help from technical support or customer support too for the same, but could not got it.

4 Star Review CybersShot DSC-S700 Great little camera.

Strengths:

Small, compact, easy to use.

Weaknesses:

Wish it had a bigger internal memory storage.

Posted Jan 5, 2008 - I got this camera at a great price so I decided to buy it. I'm glad I did because it is so easy to use and you can download you pictures to your printer or watch a movie slide of your pictures on your TV screen. I like this camera very much and I would recommend it.

4 Star Review Good bang for the buck

Strengths:

Size, resolution, ease of use, non-proprietary batteries, large LCD screen, decent zoom

Weaknesses:

Doesn't use SD cards

Posted Jan 5, 2008 - This camera packs a lot of value for the price. It's a great choice for beginners who want something compact that will fit in a pocket and that will also take good pictures without a lot of fuss and fumbling. The ability to use AA batteries is a huge plus in my opinion, as AAs are widely available (get AAs that can be recharged). I wish it used widely available and very common SD memory, but I understand why Sony wants to promote their own format.

4 Star Review Good, cheap camera

Strengths:

Its very cheap. Small size and big screen.

Weaknesses:

You get what you pay for.

Posted Jan 17, 2008 - I got it as a gift. Person wanted a small, compact digital camera. This is a great basic camera to snap pics of friends and stuff. Do not expect to get DSLR quality shots, but for the money, I am happy.

4 Star Review Excellent shots for the price

Strengths:

Excellent shots, portability

Weaknesses:

Optical zoom, Memory usage, battery backup

Posted Feb 10, 2008 - Bought this on thanksgiving at a very nominal price for my dad. Works best in daylight. Night mode does not work that best. Ecellent shots with image stability. No shake and red-eye. However, at max zoom in night mode, the images are little blurred and have lot of shake. Well, that seems common with all portable cameras at this resolution. Much better than a similar spec Fuji or Cannon. You must have a huge memory stick to store the data in for 7 mp pics. Batter goes out soom with continuous flash.

4 Star Review Very nice camera

Strengths:

Extremely easy to use, manual is not needed for experienced amateur. "Green" icon shots are easy for anyone. Prints of outdoor shots are excellent+.

Weaknesses:

Startup could be faster. Flash photos are slightly overexposed even when set to "-". Background indoor shots sometimes underexposed, "slow synchro" not good. Macro shots not focused well.

Posted May 4, 2008 - "Disappears" in cargo pocket. Batteries are not a problem. Screen difficult to see outdoors--common for camera type. Limited user adjustable features are extremely easy to use. Battery/card cover accidently opened one time, batteries popped out. Sony Picture Motion is easy to use. Weaknesses listed above are minor.
