Sony DSC-W290 Pro Reviews

ITreviews‘s review Edit Like Unlike

Sony have gone all out in the Cyber-shot DSC-W290 to make capturing photos both fun and creative with a number of innovative portrait technologies as well as introducing HD movie making. It's a shame this is marred by some design flaws, lack of a Sport mode and a restrictive zoom.

The Sony Cybershot DSC-W290 may not have the sharpest image quality in its price range, but casual photographers looking for a big display, ease of use, and good battery life will likely be pleased with it. Those looking for fun in-camera features and editing tools will be delighted.

The W290 is a rock-solid point-and-shoot camera with a great lens and good capabilities. The best feature, however, may well be the easy camera control offered by the Intelligent Auto mode. This makes it one of the first true point-and-shoot cameras that fully adjusts itself to take the best picture. Add that to the well-placed controls, the easier navigation, and the HD video mode and we think that Sony has a winner.

A wide-angle lens and a big LCD complement the Cyber-shot DSC-W290's fun and unique in-camera features.

While it may not have the best picture quality in the world, and some of the controls are a little fiddly, if you want a camera that will take a good photo quickly and reliably in virtually any lighting conditions then the Sony W290 is very hard to beat. Excellent build quality, lightning-fast performance and the additional versatility of the 5x wide zoom and HD video recording make this camera outstanding value for money.
