Description: The 7.2-Megapixel Cyber-shot(R) W120 features innovative Smile Shutter technology, which photographs smiles as they happen. A Carl Zeiss 4x optical zoom lens provides high quality close-ups, while Sony's Double Anti-Blur solution gives you crisp, clear images. The advanced Sony Super HAD(TM) (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise. Because an off-center subject can make your shot more interesting, a 9-point auto focus measures the focus at 9 precision points instead of 5 giving you greater creative freedom to compose your image. The large, bright 2.5" TFT LCD display makes it easy to compose shots, check results, and read menus in sharp natural color, even in bright sunlight. Face Detection technology automatically controls focus, exposure, color, and flash to help reveal faces in shadows, make skin tones look more natural, reduce red-eye, and eliminate harsh facial glare, so your photos bring out every expression on every face in every shot. Super SteadyShot(R) Image Stabilization compensates for shaky hands and minimizes blur with optical sensors that detect camera movement and send correcting signals to a stabilization lens. Aperture Range - Auto (F2.8-F14 with ND Filter) / Program Auto (F2.8-F14 with ND Filter) Shutter Speed - Auto (1/4 - 1/1,600) / Program Auto (1 - 1/1,600) Flash Modes - Auto, Forced On, Forced Off, and Slow Synch Movie Modes - MPEG VX Fine with Audio (640x480 at 30fps), MPEG VX Standard with Audio (640x480 at 16fps), Presentation (320 x 240 at 8fps) Scene Modes - Auto, Easy Shooting, Program Auto, Movie, High Sensitivity, Twilight, Twilight Portrait, Soft Snap, Landscape, Beach, Snow, Fireworks, and Smile Shutter Operating System - Microsoft 2000 Professional, Me, XP Home and Professional, Macintosh OS 9.1, 9.2, OS X (10.0-10.4)

Review Summary: excelente camara Date: 2009-01-04
 
Details: Es una excelente camara. Tiene un tiempo de respuesta muy bueno despues de haber tomado fotos usando el flash.
 
Review Summary: Great, Tiny, Powerful and Inexpensive Date: 2009-01-02
 
Details: Plenty has already been said of this camera - and it's a great purchase.

What I'd add is that it is very small - truly a pocket camera. It takes much better pictures than a digital camera only two years older. It's quick on startup and very quick on trigger-to-shot speed.

The entire camera is made much more intuitive by the visual explanations that appear on the display with each selection. This helps translate those little-used symbols into something you can actually learn and put to good use (like the low light setting, or smile mode that may otherwise get overlooked for the life of the camera).

The pictures taken with a flash are much improved over previous Sonys. Whether its software, sensor or flash, I don't know. But flash pictures are far more natural looking than previous models. They're not over or under-saturated.

In fact, this model is so intuitive and inexpensive, I sent one to a less-technical family member to replace an otherwise great Sony digital camera I recommended for them just 2 years earlier. I even got one for my wife and now use it more than my own because of its features, slimness and quick shutter speed.

Minor niggles: the otherwise simple and slim camera-to-USB cable has been replaced by a 'universal' cable that also includes video and audio plugs which makes the cable 3x thicker and more cumbersome than earlier models. Also - the rotating setting dial isn't indented far enough into the camera, so its easy to rub with your right hand when taking pictures which can bump the camera into another mode.

Be sure to get a good memory stick like the Sony 2 GB Memory Stick PRO Duo (MSX-M2GS) (Retail Package) or the larger Sony 4 GB Memory Stick PRO DUO ( MSX-M4GS ) (Retail Package) both of which come with an adapter for card readers like the IOGear GFR281 56-in-1 Card Reader/Writer which is faster for transferring photos than a direct connection to the camera.

I also opted for the Sony NP-FG1 InfoLITHIUM Type G Rechargeable Li-Ion Battery Pack for Sony W & H Series Digital Cameras battery that provides a 'time left' display in the camera - something the standard battery that comes with the camera does not. And I decided against any soft case without room for memory cards and an extra battery and picked up the Kroo Camera case for Sony Cybershot DSC Model + Universal LCD Screen Protector Kit + CLOTH instead - which came with a bonus screen protector.
 
Review Summary: Sony Cyber Shot W120 Date: 2008-12-28
 
Details: I just upgraded from the Sony Cyber Shot S60. The pros of this camera are the price, compact size, color selection, and smile shutter feature. The Cons of this camera are there is no trimming or cropping feature, which I use all the time, it uses a Sony battery instead of AA batteries, and it uses a Memory Stick Pro Duo. Honestly, I like my old one better, but I will get used to this one. This is a good point and shoot camera for a teenager or a beginner, I'm just missing my old Sony!
 
Review Summary: So tiny, cute, and PINK! Date: 2008-12-28
 
Details: This is exactly what I wanted. I wanted something I could put in my hand bag and have when I wanted it. This is a super quality camera. Nice big viewing screen, and very easy to operate. Do remember to get a memory card seperately. I didn't and now I have to wait again for that. I love the size and ease of this, and especially, because it's PINK! What more could a girl ask for?
 
Review Summary: Sony Cyber-Shot DSCW120MDG/P 7.2 MP Digital Camera Review Date: 2008-12-28
 
Details: Shipment received in a timely manner. All items listed in the seller's description were received "new" as described.

The photo submitted by the seller for this item contains a Memory Stick Pro Duo Card; however, there was not one included in the package I received. This was deceiving, and misleading. There was however, a USB Memory stick included in the package as pictured with the seller's description.

The seller's description states a MSRW-MD1/P Memory Stick Duo Adaptor is included; however, there was not one included in the package I received. This is also deceiving. Otherwise - the camera and all other accesories were received new and in great working condition.
