4 of 4 found this helpful I must start off saying this is my first almost-serious camera, before this one I owned a canon SX30is and that one was pretty decent for a bridge camera with super zoom.
I decided to move up to a looking-alike DSLR and started with a tight budget and found this baby at 190$, cant say no to that!.
I bought the camera already knowing the LCD was not a quality display and the eViewFinder was a downside aswell. I read many reviews where people were BASHING on this camera for those 2 points and also indicating the camera feels cheap.
I wont deny the LCD and viewfinder are like 2/5, the LCD can barely be seen under sunlight and the viewfinder makes you think that you've missed the shot exposure, just to realize you got it right when you get home and watch the pictures on your laptop.
When I first got the camera I noticed the SENSOR of this beast is TOP OF THE LINE, for real, I understand that Sony has to cut some corners but they left the expensive things inside this monster and I love the quality of the pictures it takes.
The image stabilization is another topic to keep in mind, this is built-in on the lens but at least you have stabilized shots and it works really fine, you will most of the times get the steady shots even if you move your hand.
The battery life is pretty decent, not over the top but definitely not a bottom performer... I can get like 500+ with one charge, and it goes 0 to 100 real quick (ha!) like an hour or so... the only thing is that you dont have a led indicator of message that shows you the charging process, so give it an hour (getting a spare battery is a must).
The speed is pretty decent, nothing compared to a DSLR but hey, you are getting what you are paying for.
Other point is the weight, even though it might feel cheepo, this camera does not weight at all, you can carry it all day long hanging on your shoulder and walk without even notice it, once again, reduced costs on buttons and other physical stuff makes this camera feels like a toy but, does not look like a toy and definitely not performs like a toy.
Keep in mind this is an entry level looking-alike DSLR, the main goal of a camara is to take pictures, and this one does that over the level.
You can check some sample pictures: flickr /jezersclopis and compare the canon SX30is with the Sony.
