Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-F828 Digital Camera

Pros: Amazing photo quality, good range of settings
Cons: The size.

I have had this camera since March 2004. It was my second camera, and it has been an excellent choice for me. The optics are Carl Zeiss, proving to provide amazing color reproduction. I have had this camera in the cold of the far north of Canada, the ...

Pros: Perfect next step on this design. Great enhancements, including CFII drive.
Cons: Some things (flash) still highly proprietary, but workarounds available.

An upgrade from my DSC-F707 (h ttp://www.epinions.com/content _278293941892). My uses: product images, public events (inside and out), local/regional advertising pix. Meaning, jpeg or tiff. Raw, though available on ...

Pros: It is an overall professional grade camera. Highly recommended you won’t be disappointed!
Cons: Individual MPEG movie size LIMITED 1.45 GB even with larger storage space.

After a lot of research I recently purchased the Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-F828 Digital Camera instead of a video camera. I LOVE it! The night mode is great and can be used in movie mode also. You can edit the movie on the camera if need be removing parts ...

Pros: Movie mode works great! Love the rotating body and long focal length. Good weight.
Cons: Does not perform as expected. Slow capture speeds. Weird display when pointed into sunlight.

A semipro 8Meg camera for under $1k. Wow. The 1st out is not always the best. I wanted a 8meg real bad. I did all the research and printed loads of reviews and pictures as soon as they came to the web. Some people were a little skeptical, but still said ...

Pros: Feels like a camera, looks like a camera, Color accurate. reliable. sensible easy
Cons: Slow at highest res. 12 pics.on 512 mb cf. petite buttons.

I bought the F828 about 5 weeks ago , I read the manual 3 times prior to using the camera [ my habit with all products ] I have found the controls easy to get accustomed to, though they are small, even smaller if your hands are big. I own a mini dv. I ...

Pros: Best handling, impressive speed, high pictures quality, accurate color.
Cons: Need Smaller aperture, faster shutter speed. potential CA/PF. Small CCD.

Who should buy: Sophisticated users to amateur enthusiasts. Best-fit buyers are looking for an ONE-PIECE DIGITAL camera with the most natural control designs, great amount of features, top performance of speeds (non-raw), high quality pictures and high ...

Pros: Great features, great lense and zoom, dual memory media
Cons: Pictures needs post-processing, expensive, heavy

This camera is definitely not for the 'average user' as it is much heavier and more expensive than other 5MP or greater cameras. The manual zoom lens is a GREAT feature and the focusing is ultra-fast. I've already taken about 50 photos with this ...

Pros: CF Card Storage, Great lense, Superb picture quality, Fast picture shooting. Long battery life
Cons: Long raw writing time, Seen better lense hoods.

After reading countless reviews and narrowing it down between the Sony F-828 and the new Canon Digital Rebel I decided to go for the Sony. Image quality is fantastic and the ablity to manually zoom really aids in fantastic picture quality. The camera is ...

Pros: Everything you could ask for in a camera, digital or otherwise.
Cons: Not as easy as it looks.

If you want professional looking pictures then the Sony CyberShot DSC-F828 is the digital camera for you. I don't think there are many that compare without going to an SLR camera. Recently my husband upgraded to the Sony F828 camera purely by ...

Pros: EASY!/Focus! Lens Quality! Fleshtones are accurate!/EASY!Easy!/fast! No Lag at all!and Easy!
Cons: Somewhat Large,and Heavy, But worth it!

Gave my Nikon8meg to my daughter and Bought this...Wonderfull! Thank Sony for the Green Auto mode button and the fact that it WORKS! Take this camera out of the box, set it on auto and take Awesome pictures that print out at 13X19 with no pixelation. Who ...

Pros: Beautiful build quality, great lens, wonderful handling, and ultimately terrific image quality.
Cons: Some high ISO noise, purple fringing in high contrast images, stupid flap over USB port.

The 828 is a superb camera that has gotten significant bad press over purple fringing. It's an overblown issue and should not weigh heavily in a decision to buy one. The build quality is beyond reproach, the handling is superior to anything in its class, ...

Pros: Preview picture before shooting. Overall Quality.
Cons: Could be faster proccesing. Sometimes gives a blue tint to pictures.

First let me say that I am not a photography expert. When I bought this camera,....I did not know what aperture was. I had always just used the automatic features on my digital Olypmpus cameras. However,....I recently discovered that 4 Megapixals did ...

Pros: It combines the best of D-SLR and Advanced Digital Cameras.
Cons: It takes a little study time to fully understand all the advanced features.

This is a great camera for me. I mainly use a camera for: outdoor landscape photography, some macro photos, some people shots and occasionally some product photos for clients. I have been using the camera for a few weeks and it meets my needs for these ...

Pros: Love the look, feel, and features - great manual zoom, autofocus, and control layout.
Cons: But I also want acceptable photos without the extra work.

I would have bought this camera at local retailer, but it was out of stock. So I went home and started reviewing it more - of course I saw all the same reviews you have concerning the CA and noise. So I grabbed a memory stick and went back to the ...

Pros: solid materials and construction, easily available and comprehensive professional controls, powerful and variable flash
Cons: fatally flawed focussing system, image degradation at ISOs above 100 and shutter speeds above 200

The enigmatic Sony DSC-F828 has great, but unfulfilled potential. It is tank solid and well-designed, with easily accessible controls, and all the features a pro shooter would want, but it shoots poor pictures. Major Features. The new "Black Angel" ...
