Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T20 review

The DSC-T20 shares its design with the T100, but its specifications are more modest, with a 3x zoom and 2.5in screen, and it also costs around £50 less.

Sony Cyber Shot DSC-T20

Slim, sleek design; face detection; optional HD output; fast performance.

Must half-press shutter to ensure focus; very noisy at ISO 800 and above.

Sony's DSC-T20 is a stylish, solidly-built camera with quick performance and pleasing image quality at lower ISO settings.

Sony Cyber-shot T20

A promising camera with excellent features

Great image quality, a superb feature set and fantastic slimline design. Slightly slow shutter speed is a disappointment though

Sony DSC T20

The Sony DSC T20 is one of the most stylish digital cameras on the market. It is small enough to fit into a pocket and takes a decent photo as well. Plus points include ease of use and very low shutter lag times.

Low shutter lag - ease of use - stylish

Red eye on indoor photos

"I like the Sony DSC T20. It stands up well against other pocket sized digital cameras. It is likely to prove attractive owing to its looks, ease of use and low shutter delay times. The low shutter delay times mean that you should not miss a picture!"
