Pros: Excellent images, great battery life, fast zoom lens Cons: EVF, Sony Memory Stick proprietary storage media, and poor ergonomics.

Pros: Excellent photo quality with a lot of features! Cons: I didn't care for the pop up flash and their battery.

:UPDATED October 12, 2003---Update first For Your Review: While this review here is for Sony's wonderful DSC-F717, this camera at two years of age (almost) is being phased out with extensive price reductions. It is being replaced by Sony's new (and extr ...
This is a pretty great camera! (except for the CCD failure/recall)... This was my first digital camera. I didn't much like film cameras - I guess because I'm too "cheap" to buy film & get it developed. I also hated waiting until I took a whole ...
Pros: Swivel Body - Hologram AF - Fast - Night Framing - Battery Life Cons: Pricey - 32MB Memory Stick - What's up with that silver body color
Ever have the upgrade itch? The F717 gave me that itch and this is after only owning the F707 for 6 months. Now comes the time where you have to ask yourself is this new camera worth upgrading to from F707 (or another digi-cam)? For me it was...
Pros: Sturdy, excellent pictures, LCD viewfinder, design. Cons: Odd shape if you're not used to it.
I'm a long-time Sony fan. I've had their products in one form or another since the days of the original Walkman. It was a huge and pleasant surprise when my dad's wedding present to me a few years back was the DSC-F505V digital camera. After a couple of...
Pros: Great optics, battery life, high resolution, night mode, laser-assisted focus, bright flush. Cons: Ergonomics, 5x zoom, slow shutter
Yes, it's 21st century, and it's time for me to move on to digital. I had Canon EOS camera, which I loved, but developing film in local photo shops was expensive, quality of prints was so-so, and Kodak Photo CD that they would make had only 1.2 MP scanned ...
Pros: Excellent quality photos even for beginners, nightshot, infolithium battery Cons: price, odd shape, flash shadow in macro shots
I did two solid months of research before settling on a new digital camera, and I finally settled on the Sony 717. I must say it exceeded my expectations both in quality of photo and in the number of features it had. It does well in all the important...
Pros: InfoLithium Batteries, Memory Stick Pro, Carl Zess Lens, 5.24 MP Cons: Weight, Sony Warranty
Let Me Start off By Saying that I have owned 3 Previous Digital Cameras and 2 of those were the Sony Brand (Kodak DC-210 Plus, a Sony Mavica FD-90, and a Sony Cybershot DSC-F707) So I do write this review with some expirence.
Pros: Amazingly Sharp pictures. Great low light capability. Very fast camera in the prosumer category. Cons: Pictures are little underexposed in bright sunlight. Colors are not as vivid as a canon.
Experience: I am very happy with this camera, and will not replace it (not with the Nikon DSLRs, nor with the Canon Rebels) UNTIL the X3 technology becomes stable and the chip is mass marketed (refer to www.foveon.com). I firmly believe that the X3 ...
Pros: High Quality photos, long battery life, many accessories available, Quality construction, Fun to use Cons: Bulky size, only Memory Stick compatible
I tried several cameras and read many reviews before buying this one from dolivertonn on Ebay. First, I must comment about buying cameras on Ebay -- BE CAREFUL!!! dolivertonn was the only honest seller I encountered in a two-month period. All the ...
