I love this digicam, my first. Easy to learn. I take it travel, bush and beach. My philosopy is that quality will cost. Paid a good dollar for this and more than happy BUT just out of warranty and a repair was needed.

A winner in most situations
Sony Cyber-shot DSC P200 By James Ewin (01/06/2006)
- Pros: Easy to use, good feature set, great battery life
- Cons: Poor image quality in low light

When you get more confident taking shots there are a few manual settings to get better results which I found is good when you want to take low-light shots without the flash - the point where the camera falls short.

excellent all-rounder
Sony Cyber-shot DSC P200 By daz hockey (18/01/2006)
- Pros: small and easy to carry. feels solid. decent size LCDscreen.
- Cons: annoying'camera shake' signal on LCD, but looks strange on a tri-pod.
I brought myself a DSC-P200 to take pictures to use for my shops web-site and advertising posters and was surprised by the quality of both camera and images.The Carl Zeiss lens is superb and the program menue is simple to use. I intended to buy a digital SLR for the same job, but am happy to carry on with this camera..(for now anyway!!!)
Recomended for everyday use and for quality results.
