You don’t have to be an expert to take great photos with the Sony Cyber-shot W510. The Sony W510 has a built in software enabling you to upload to photo sharing websites with one click.
Light, compact and comfortable to carry, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W510 is your perfect companion for holidays, family get-togethers and more. Enhanced Face Detection automatically adjusts the W510 settings for clear, crisp results with natural skin tones.
Glancing at the camera specifications, things get off to a promising start. A 4x optical zoom, opening up to a maximum aperture range of f/2.8-5.9, and sweep panorama built-in which puts it on par with more expensive Sony compacts. It uses a 12.1-megapixel CCD sensor, it's slim and fits perfectly in a pocket at 1.9cm deep. It has a range of shooting modes, from intelligent automatic, program, scene modes and steady shot for reducing blur.
Things take a turn for the worse when inspecting the LCD screen, which at 2.7 inches is grainy and low resolution. Given the price of this camera, we're not expecting marvels but the quality and colour accuracy is just awful. Unfortunately, there's no optical viewfinder like that found on entry-level compacts of old, meaning the screen is the only way you can construct images.
Tiny buttons seem to be a mainstay of Sony cameras whatever the price and the W510 is no exception. There's a plastic zoom toggle at the rear, close to the mode switch to alternate between still, sweep panorama or video mode. Video recording is only VGA or QVGA resolution though, no HD here.
Connectivity is via a single AV-out port at the side. Running on a Lithium-ion battery, the W510 also takes SD cards and Memory Stick Pro Duo cards.
It offers easy-to-use functions that makes an effortless and fun photo-taking experience. Capture life at its fullest with the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W510. Shoot vibrant landscapes with one touch using Sweep Panorama Mode, and score that perfect portrait shot with Face Detection and Smile Shutter technologies. Fit everything in with the 26mm wide angle lens and automatically get clear images with SteadyShot image stabilization and iAuto. Give your memories the superb contrast and clarity they deserve with the powerful 12.1-megapixel Super HAD CCD image sensor. A generous 2.7" (230K pixels) Clear Photo LCD display makes it easy to review your photos, compose shots and easily navigate the menu–even in bright sunlight.
