by dkozin dkozin is a Lead on Epinions in Electronics, Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 10, Feb 01 '06
Pros: Price, resolution, wide angle, features, performance, size, uses 2 AA batteries, powerful flash
Cons: Proprietary Memory Stick Duo, slow flash recycle, noise at ISO 400-1000
After using the 4 -Megapixel Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-S40 , which cost me $158, I got the new 6-Megapixel Sony Cuber-Shot DSC-S600. At $180 it was only $22 more and features a larger screen (2-inch vs. 1.5-inch) and higher ...

DSC-S600: A Good Point-And-Shoot From Sony (Updated)

by truegenius , Aug 23 '06
Pros: Compact size, sturdy control buttons and switches, quiet zoom lens motor
Cons: No all-manual controls, 1/40 sec. non-standard flash shutter speed can wash out subjects
Okay, here's the scoop – I recently bought a honkin' big digital SLR, my first ever. I love the thing but it's heavy. At a pound and a half, I wanted something I could toss in my pocket for quickie shots. Having cruised my local computer retailers ...

Small, Sleek and light on your pocket!!

by ram_cv , Nov 16 '06
Pros: Compact design, 6 MP resolution, Sony Cyber shot viewer.
Cons: Night Vision, 6 MP eats into your storage.
Introduction In the summer of year 2006, I decided to go about looking for a nice digital camera. Two things were very clear from the offset for me while purchasing the camera: 1) Being just a casual photographer, I did not need an all frills ...

It's just fine actually.

by davedavedaveda , Feb 20 '06
Pros: Resolution, short boot up time, pic and video quality.
Cons: Colours could be more saturated, LCD resolution could be better.
I purchased a Sony Cyber-shot DSC-S600 from Future Shop, in Canada, for $250 cdn plus taxes. The camera comes with a software CD, usb connection cable and well written manuals. No rechargeable batteries, no extra external memory and no usb extension ...

Great beginner Camera

by pandora , Apr 10 '06
Pros: Great features, light, durable, easy peasy to use
Cons: Battery life seems low, but I was using the flash a lot and cheap batteries
My experience using this product. I have taken this camera out on very over cast days, in the pitch dark, on my oddly Christmas light lit porch, in a florescent lit laundry mat, the oddly diffused light of my living room, and in broad clear sky ...

DSC-S600 - doesn't quite live up to its specifications

by d7t3 , Feb 20 '06
Pros: Affordable 6mp, wide 31mm equivalent, adequate controls, uses AA batts, 30fps VGA video
Cons: Artifacts & noise, no custom WB, slow flash recharge, awkward buttons, not 'idiotproof'
Background I did some online research and then went to the shop to buy this camera in person. It's for my brother-in-law and his criteria were: at least 4mp, less than 900RM (about 230USD), video with sound, and runs on AA batts. I decided to ...

Less than impressed

by sashacat7 , Nov 28 '06
Pros: Nice compact size and easy menus.
Cons: Battery life, battery life, battery life.
Like many others, I did a lot of research before settling on the Sony DSC-S600 to replace my old digital camera. I wish I had done more... While I love the size of the camera and ease of use, the battery life is just killing me. I don't use my camera ...

Good Multipurpose Camera

by dsnider2006 , Mar 11 '08
Pros: Takes great pictures, useful in many settings
Cons: Menu and features a tad difficult to work with, shutter a little slow.
I bought this through E-Bay to use as my everyday, all-around camera. It has been used for indoor family album shots, outdoor action shots, in-the-dark shots, and more. I really like how multipurpose this camera is. I like the clarity of the shots, too. ...

Sony reliability, great value

by tammigirl , Mar 21 '07
Pros: Great value, long battery life, great photos, all around good camera.
Cons: I can't think of a single drawback to this camera.
I got this camera for my daughter for Christmas and I couldn't be happier about my decision. With a generous six mega pixels, this camera can take really high quality photos at a price within our budget. It can take video, too. We bought a two gigabyte ...

Give Sony a shot

by brimia , Sep 11 '06
Pros: Lots of features, takes great pictures, good price
Cons: Some menu/options are a confusing without manual, need to buy memory stick (not cheap)
After waiting about 10 years to get a decent replacement digital camera, the Sony Cyber-shot is a dream. It's small but packed with features. We purchased it at Staples because they had it on sale, plus had a coupon, plus a rebate for the memory stick ...

Good point and shoot camera but...

by nickcol3 , Feb 04 '06
Pros: Easy to use. Clear menus and manuals. Powerful flash. Doesn’t need Sony memory cards.
Cons: Does not come with AC adapter, NiMH batteries, charger or have an A/V outlet.
I wanted a camera that fitted easily in my shirt pocket, be easy to use by my wife (who gets confused if a camera has more than two buttons), have a fixed LCD, a good flash, an optical viewfinder and cost about $200. I only looked at Canon and Sony ...

Good Point-and-Shoot Camera Solution

by thomasnorcal , Apr 29 '07
Pros: good price small size easy to use
Cons: -slow response -no image stabilization -Small Screen
Nice small camera that is easy to use, takes good pictures, small but not as small enough to really call a pocket camera-even though its almost that. My previous Sony Camera (3.2version) broke down and I decided to upgrade to a 6.0 Sony Camera. I had ...

Don't waste your money!!!!

by desertrat99 , Jul 11 '07
Pros: Takes good pictures if item is not defective,size
Cons: Bad product
I bought this camera because I thought Sony was such a trusted brand. I have to admit it does take really good pictures but not even owning it for a year I had to send it in for repair. I would turn it on and the camera would just shut off it just kept ...

suburb camera
by ray67 ,Nov 19 '06
Pros: sharp lens, powerful flash, excellent colour, wide angle and low noise.
Cons: inaccurate battery meter, plastic case, too thick compare to other compact
I chose Sony S 600 because of its flash & wide angle lens. I compare it with two other brand costing twice and Sony is sharper and produce better colour & lower noise . Print quality was very good with very good colour reproduction. The optical viewfinder is useful when you can't compose under direct sunlight For the price I paid (about $138.00),I am very happy with it and definitely BEST BUY.

power button broken
by russiaville ,Oct 19 '07
Pros: compact, good quality pics
Cons: ease of use, menus confusing, cheap power switch
Have had the camera since Feb 06 and now the power button is broken, stuck down. I opened the camera and found the cheap plastic switch broken. I paid $256 for this in Indianapolis, the most I've seen for this - bad deal from the start. The good thing is the size of this camera.
