Sony Digital Camera Reviews:-

#  Sony DSC-H3 Review which is taken from Imaging-resource:- The Sony H3 comes into a crowd of photography enthusiasts like we have here at Imaging-Resource.com, the question is, “Is that a camera I can carry when I don’t want to schlep my SLR?” Well, while most of us can’t stand the Sony H3’s Home menu, we have to admit that it’s a nice lens and that its printed results are quite good. The large lens shade is a bit off-putting, taking up more space in a bag than the camera itself. But overall, the Sony H3 is a nice little camera that will deliver good shots in most lighting situations, and its extra features and extra fast pre-focus shutter lag are just enough to serve as a quality snapshot camera. However, its increased chromatic aberration at telephoto that runs across the entire frame, plus the limitation of only two aperture settings might prevent most picky SLR shooters from thinking of the Sony H3 has a true SLR replacement.

#  Sony DSC-H3 Review which is taken from Reviews.cnet:- Has 10x optical zoom lens; small size; optical image stabilization; face detection.Noisy images at higher ISOs; no place to put your thumb.And  If you don’t like electronic viewfinders, but want a superzoom, this Sony packs a 10x zoom lens and 8 megapixels into a tiny package, but image quality at higher ISOs is a bit lacking.

#  Sony DSC-H3 Review which is taken from Digitalcamerareview:- If you can tolerate this bit of unpleasantness, though, as well as battery and connection covers that will be lucky to survive long under normal use, the total ergonomic experience with the H3 is good, with everything falling into place as it should. I like that the physical interface doesn’t overwhelm with buttons, and that all the controls are sized for people with normal to largish hands and fingers. Balance and weight both feel right. It is possible to shoot one-handed with the H3 most of the time as well, with only the playback button sitting out of thumb’s reach.

#  Sony DSC-H3 Review which is taken from Cameras.co.uk:- Sony has built 31mb of memory into the DSC H3. I was able to take 15 photos before the memory was full. The camera is also compatible with the following memory cards: Memory Stick Duo, Memory Stick PRO Duo, Memory Stick PRO Duo High Speed, Memory Stick PRO-HG Duo (same speed as PRO Duo).                                                                      

#  Sony DSC-H3 Review which is taken from Cnet:- While the H3’s small body design (for a superzoom) is definitely handy when trying to fit it in a bag or jacket pocket, it leaves few options for the button layout. Sony basically had to put the zoom rocker smack in the middle of where your thumb should naturally rest, which might seem good at first, but we ended up accidentally nudging it often when shooting, throwing off our zoom setting and messing up the framing of our shot. If Sony would’ve moved the shutter button a little to the left and the mode dial forward, the zoom rocker could’ve been moved farther right and given room for your thumb. However, as the body design goes, that’s the biggest flaw. The grip, though small, is effective — curl your middle finger over the top of the grip, and the rest of your fingers fall nicely into place, though it does leave your pinky dangling, which always irks me. It seems as though camera makers have begun to despise the pinky finger. Most entry-level dSLRs and almost all superzooms have grips that can’t fit a pinky.

#  Sony DSC-H3 Review which is taken from Ephotozine:- The Menu brings all the options up to the left side of the screen whilst still showing the image in the background. It is the section of the camera for making immediate changes to the camera settings, such as resolution, Image quality, Colour modes, ISO ratings, Exposure compensation, Metering, Focus set, White balance, Flash compensation, Red-eye reduction options, Contrast, Sharpness, Image stabiliser and Set up access which takes you into the Home menu.
