What our customer's say!

"No Remote", This camera does everything is claims to do. However, I have only one complaint. It does not have a remote control option. Certainly, you may accomplish the same thing with it's internal timer. However, there are times when you would prefer to have that nifty 6ft. Remote shutter control. Other than this it is a great camera.

"Sony Cybershot 7.2 MP camera died right after 1 year warranty expired", Suddenly, while traveling, this Sony Cybershot 7.2 MP stopped working. It was exactly 1 year after purchase, right after the warranty expired. Very disappointing.

An electronic problem causes a complete freezing-up right after the shutter button is pushed, resulting in a blank black viewer. After it finally releases from the freeze, no picture has been taken.

Repair work costs more than to replace camera, of course. I will think twice before buying Sony camera again.

As a photographer, I have owned many different cameras. Never have had a complete malfunction on a camera ever, except in a used Nikon I bought from the guys at the B&H Used Camera Dept in NYC.

This Sony should have been better and should have lasted much longer. My old Olympus digital lasted at least five years with no problem.

"Pics as good as SLR for a fraction of the price", I am not an expert, but the pictures from this camera look as good as pics from an expensive SLR camera. People can't believe the pictures I take with this camera. The 12X zoom makes it perfect for sporting events and your kid's school events. Unbelievable pictures.
The only downside is that the camera is big (like an SLR) so we also have a smaller one to carry around everyday. But our everyday camera can't zoom in like this one.
Be prepared, this thing is big but it is worth lugging around if you want really good pictures and the 3X zoom on a small camera just won't cut it. The price is so reasonable that you can get both this one and a small everyday camera.

"The product is excellent", Sony Cybershot DSC-H5 7.2MP Digital Camera with 12x Optical Image Stabilization Zoom

The product is excellent

"A little disappointed", Takes awesome outside pictures. I'm a little upset about the inside shots. Flash is too bright even though I have done everything instructed to make it darker. Pics are out of focus when used without the flash with dim light. Had it a couple of months and had to send in for repair due to an internal computer issue but the turn around time was great ( about 7 days). I guess the bottom line is that I am keeping it but would not buy it again.

Read this reviews before You buy...

"not satisfied as i was with h5", battery back up is not so god, and charging also took a lot of time.

the dial to change the mode , got changed accidently a lot of times and the picture went all blurry .

very satisfied from the size and the weight aspect.

"Great camera with a serious flaw ", The Sony Cybershot DSC-H5 is my second digital camera, a huge step up from the simple point and click Nikon that I bought five years ago. Like that camera, you can use the Cybershot in a fully automated mode right out of the box. But what makes this camera worth the money are the host of manual features you can use to explore more fully the possibilities in the photographic art. Switching back and forth between the two takes only a few minutes of studying the options interface.

But BEWARE.

It appears that there is a serious design flaw in the DSC-H5. Two months after I bought it the automatic focus feature stopped working. As designed, you push halfway on the shutter button to focus, then press fully to take your picture. I was happily shooting away at a recent baseball game when I noticed that I could no longer hold the shutter halfway to focus. After discharging the batteries, reinitializing the camera, and pouring through the manual for a solution, I began a search of the internet. To my great disappointment I have found that several other consumers have had the identical same problem with the shutter button. Some have had the problem fixed, only to have it resurface several hundred shots later. See the forums (dsc-h5 autofocus problem) at Photography Review for more discussion of this issue.

I'm still under warranty and sending my camera for repair next week. I may sell it afterwards and move onto a new model, which I really hate to do. This is in all other respects a wonderful camera.

UPDATE 08 June 2007: Sony sent a courier with a self-addressed padded box and the camera left home within moments. The local service center called the next afternoon to say repairs had been completed and the camera arrived by courier the next afternoon. According to the service invoice, the switch block was replaced. As the camera is still under warranty, all shipping, parts and labor was covered by Sony. I have so far shot only a couple of photos to test that the autofocus is now working. I hope to shoot some more photos soon to more fully test the new button.

"I Will Never Buy Another Sony", This camera was surely not worth the $600 I paid for it. The battery system is horrible due to low capacity, and the delay it takes to actually snap the picture is infuriating. A lot of my closer photos or photos with any kind of movement turn out blurry. Everytime I use this camera I regret buying it. Don't waste your money parents! Buy a Nikkon or a Canon and get the picture snapped at the moment you actually want it snapped when you're shooting your children!

"My new H5 is awesome!", Love, love, love my new Sony H5 camera. Bought it and took it to Arizona for a bird watching trip and got excellent results. Easy to use. The zoom works amazingly well with the image stabilization feature. Highly recommended.
