Sony DSC-S75 Review

The DSC-S75 is a progression from last years DSC-S70, despite the use of a 5 in it's name the S75 isn't using one of the new 5 megapixel sensors, rather the same 3.3 megapixel sensor seen in the S70. Sony have introduced the S75 as a replacement (and...

Very sharp, high resolution images, very good colour accuracy and saturation Significant improvements over last years model: Better build Better control layout (mode dial, more manual controls on camera back), better power switch, jog-dial Improved...

Slow startup times (thanks to the extending lens) Zoom controller is too sensitive (not enough different zoom positions) Battery / Memory Stick compartment on the base of the camera Terribly positioned tripod mount MPEG movies only 8 frames per second...

Here's my rating of the Sony DSC-S75: (3 megapixel compact prosumer)

Sony DSC-S75 Digital Camera Review: Intro and Highlights

Sony Electronics has long held a dominant position in the digicam marketplace, with a wide range of models enjoying enormous popularity with consumers. Last spring (February, 2000), they stunned the digicam world by announcing no fewer than six new...

Overall, the S75 produced really excellent images. Color was quite good, with appropriately saturated primary colors, as well as good handling of pastels. Overall color accuracy was very high, with only slightly reduced color saturation in the...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S75

What's in the Box

Feature packed ; Very good photo quality ; Very good bundle (except for Memory Stick) ; Manual white balance ; Simple menus mean it's easy to use ; Great movie mode with sound

No zoom in movie mode ; Proprietary (and too small) Memory Stick format, and external flash port ; No image info in playback mode (except when you zoom out twice) ; Nightshots could be better

With the Cyber-shot DSC-S75, Sony has a very competitive entry in the crowded 3 Megapixel field. The feature-set, easy-of-use, photo quality, and price are all impressive. Most of my concerns are with the Memory Stick format: it's proprietary, and the...

Unbeatable combination

Sony did the right move by putting German lens on this model. Pictures look so good that sometimes they better than originals! I bought it to sell things on Ebay and this DSC-75 is a winner! This is my first digital camera and it's highly recommended....

Awesome quality, great optics, good value

Price depreciation too fast

Untitled Review

I really have enjoyed my S75. It goes everywhere with me. I have used it in some of the nastiest conditions, and I have been very impressed with it. Unfortunately, I have dropped it a few times, but the camera continues to function like nothing...
