Manufacturer's Description
Encased within a slim metal body is Sony's latest pocket digital camera, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 (DSCP200). Don't just be dazzled by the stylish exterior&.a powerhouse lies within! Razor sharp resolution and crystal clear images are within your grasp because of the 7.2 effective Megapixel Super HAD CCD and 3X optical zoom lens. Guaranteed for quality and reliability, the Carl Zeiss® Vario-Tessar® lens extends out from the body of the DSC-P200 when required, keeping the lines elegant and the body slim. The higher resolution means that your images will print larger and will carry finer detail, while the 7.2 effective Megapixel CCD also extends Sony Smart Zoom capability.
Of course that's only half the picture. You can keep shooting as long as you need, because Sony's STAMINA technology means the Cyber-shot DSC-P200 digital camera can shoot up to 370 high quality images on one charge of the InfoLithium battery. Lending a hand is the unique Sony Real Imaging Processor, helping to make the Cyber-shot DSC-P200 digital camera highly energy efficient as well as speeding up the camera operations, you're sure never to miss a shot due to "shutter lag!" As well as boosting the performance of the camera, the Real Imaging Processor works in conjunction with the high resolution Super HAD CCD and Carl Zeiss lens to produce pictures of excellent quality. Rich, vibrant colours, clear images, sharper focus and more accurate exposures are all possible with Sony's Real Imaging Processor providing the heart of the Sony DSC-P200 digital camera.
The back of the Cybershot DSC-P200 presents another surprise. A large 2.0-inch LCD can be used to playback your pictures and adjust the camera settings. Bigger than you would expect for a pocket camera of these dimensions, the LCD is protected from harm and enhanced by a clear polycarbonate panel. As it is, the LCD keeps to the slim lines of the camera by being set flush into the metal body. Animated and enlarged icons make choosing functions simpler and it's easier to read the menu or select from any of the camera's exposure settings and nine Scene Selection modes.
Fully automatic for ease of use or manual exposure for the more advanced approach, these features allow you to be as creative as you want. The scene selection modes ensure that you'll always get an ideal picture in any of nine common situations including fireworks displays, beach activities, fast fun and games in the snow.
There's certainly more to the Sony DSC-P200 than meets the eye. You can use USB 2.0 to connect directly to a PictBridge printer or hook up to a PC and use the bundled software for even more creativity with your pictures. A Sony Memory Stick is provided to store your images - simply remove and slot the Memory Stick into any supported device such as VAIO computers for even more playback options. Not only that, but the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 is also capable of recording full screen high-quality MPEG movies for viewing on a TV.
For even greater extensibility, the Cyber-shot DSC-P200 supports an optional powered cradle, the Cyber-shot station. With this you can connect to a PC, printer or AV device, using a remote control to view your images on TV, while the camera battery charges up in the dock.

How to overcome the blurry flash sync prob. in low light,
This review is from: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 Digital Camera [7MP, 3 x Optical Zoom] (Electronics)
I own this camera and was having a bad time trying to get good results using the flash. I found the solution. The blurry image issue with the P200 is easilyfixed by setting the camera to "M" (manual) mode, setting the aperture to wide open, the shutter speed to 1/60-1/100 second and forcing the flash to "On". The camera remembers these settings even when turned off so all you have to do for a flash shot is spin the dial to "M" and fire. One nice thing about the P200 is the flash syncs to 1/1,000 second. This will freeze anything within the flash's range of 12'-15'.

Absolutely stunning,

This review is from: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 Digital Camera [7MP, 3 x Optical Zoom] (Electronics)
This is a quick first review on the Sony P200 because I have only had it for a very short while and I just had to tell people about its brilliance. I visit Fountains Abbey regularly, because I don't live far away, and take many photographs at this world heritage site - architectural, wildlife, people studies, landscapes, sunsets - the lot. This little beauty has handled the lot and there is so much you can change yourself (you can still point and shoot with great results)that you can make it do almost anything you want. At 7mp the quality on screen back home on the computer is fabulous, and I can't wait to get some large glossies done by a good developer (Sony actually do that online themselves, so perhaps I'll give them a try). I thought my last digital (won't tell you the name because they are selling a lot on Amazon)was good, but this is the best. If you do buy, get a 512mb Memory Stick to go with it, because 7mp pix guzzle a lot of memory, and you'll only get half a dozen on the supplied 16mb stick.Have a look round to find a better camera in this price bracket, and then buy this one.

Such a good camera,

This review is from: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P200 Digital Camera [7MP, 3 x Optical Zoom] (Electronics)
I have been in to cameras and photography since i was 17. I was always sceptical about moving from film to digital. I believed that you couldn't match the quality provided by film with an affordable digital camera. I was wrong. This camera is perfect. The picture quality is outstanding. At 7MP you can't really expect cheaper than what this camera is going for. This camera is also extremely easy to use. I have never used a digital camera before and I got to grips with almost all the functions without the use of the manual. It is very well built and very stylish. I don't think you could find a more good looking camera unless you looked at the ultra thin ones. One other point!!! Sony use the Carl Zeiss lens and it shows. These lenses put the other big names (Nikon, Cannon) to shame.
The screen is big enough for anyone to review their pictures. The video is good and even the sound is better than i've heard on most cameras. The battery duration is very good (just as well as it doesn't take standard alkaline batteries) and it re-charges pretty fast. There is one thing that bothers me just a bit. When you switch it on the lens that extends feels a bit flimsy. But that is the only thing I could find wrong with this camera. I have to say that I am really impessed with this camera. I would highly recommend it to anyone. Amateurs in digital photography like me will find it very easy to use and I believe experienced users will find the picture quality extremely good.
