Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX150 review

 

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX150 is a bit of surprise. Last year, Sony's high-end 10x zoom camera, the HX7V , though pocketable, was still a chunk of camera. The WX150, on the other hand, gets the same zoom range -- 25mm to 250mm -- but in a slimmer,...

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX150 is a very fast, 10x zoom ultracompact with lots of automatic shooting options, and very good photo and video quality.

The WX150's 18-megapixel resolution is of little use and its small, lightweight body can make it difficult to keep the zoom lens steady.

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX150 is an excellent little camera that doesn't sacrifice features and performance for size.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX150

 

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX150 is a svelte point-and-shoot with a long 10x zoom lens. It produces sharp photos and does well at high ISOs, but more serious shooters may be turned off by the lack of physical control buttons.

Compact. Long zoom range. Sharp lens. Good high ISO performance. Simultaneous video and still capture. Unperceivable shutter lag

Limited physical controls

The WX150 is a speedy performer. It can start and shoot in 1.4 seconds and its shutter lag is so short that it's practically nonexistent. Instead of a standard continuous drive mode, the WX150 supports burst shooting. It can grab a burst of 10 shots...

Compact body with long zoom range. Excellent high ISO performance. Capability to capture video and still images simultaneously

Restricted physical controls

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX150 is a slender and graceful point-and-shoot camera with impressive 10x zoom lens. It works great for basic photography needs with its brilliant features and high-end technology. But, the lack of physical control buttons would...

Sony Cyber-shot WX150

 

The 10x-zooming WX150 is the best no-nonsense point-and-shoot we've seen so far this year.

The WX150 may not put on much of a show for the feature-obsessed, but there is far more to this little camera than meets the eye.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX150

 

With about the same physical specifications as the cheaper W690, the WX150 trades the latter's CCD for an 18.2 megapixel backside-illuminated CMOS sensor. While this switch should yield better low-light results, the new ultra-high resolution sensor has...
