Summary: EASY DOES IT!
Review: I love this camera! I had bought another brand and had to take it back. I bought the Sony DSCP72 and found it easy to use and it takes GREAT pictures. I was able to download to my computer with no problems and have been very pleased with the quality of the pictures. I have been so impressed that I bought my Son a Sony DSCP52 for Christmas.

Summary: Great
Review: I use both a Canon A70 and this camera. There seems to be a lot of debate about which is best. After many hundreds of photos on both I can't tell any difference in photo quality. Pick whichever camera looks best. I lean away from this camera purely because memory sticks are more expensive.

Summary: Powerful camera!
Review: I must say that I agree with everyone else. This camera is nice, and you will need a larger memory card. Something that wasn't mentioned by anyone else is that this camera also has special effects (such as sephia, b&w pictures, and a few others). I thought that only the higher priced Sony cameras had these effects and almost purchased one because of it.

The camera takes beautiful pictures and is a nice compact size. The one thing I don't like is the software that comes with it. In my opinion, it's just too confusing and clunky. Image transfer is a breeze, however. I also noticed that the finish of the camera seems to have smudged off even though I use the camera very lightly and gently. Nothing too noticable, but something I spotted.

I haven't printed any of the pictures yet but I do think that once I do, I will be pleasantly surprised.

Summary: Lens won't open
Review: I got this camera for 4 months and all of a sudden the lens won't open automatically when powered-on.

As it is out of the 90-labor warranty, the repair will cost $150.

Therefore, if you haven't done so, maybe you should consider a extended warranty.

Summary: Nothing Better !!
Review: The best Digital Camera I have come across. My friends who have been using other brands, Canon, Minolta & Fuji have decided to sell their camera to get this one. Its the best for the price you pay. Excellent photographs. Never had the need to shoot at 3MP. I get excellent pictures at 2MP. Transfer of images are quick, and it has sufficiently long battery life. Doesnt come with a carry case, which is something Sony should think about. The ability to be used with normal AA batteries makes life simpler. I would recommend this camera to all. Its the best!!

Summary: Really Bad Picture Quality.
Review: This $300 sony DC really disappointed me!
All images I take show color spots, a lot of background noise
on the photo.
I own a 2 years old Nikon DC and compare with the sony stuff I can
only say that sony sucks on photo technology.

I think the DC is a weakness for all sony product. I have a
sony digital camcorder(TRV27), the still photo taken by it shows
many color noise points, too.

Suggestion: Don't buy it. Read journal's review about
DV and buy good-rated products( Like Nikon, Fujifilm, Olympus).

Summary: Great All Around Camera, mediocre software
Review: I've had the chance to review a few 3 MP cameras since I've bought three for various people. Among the 3 contenders was the FujiFinePix A301, Olympus 520D and the Sony DSC-P72. Each has their nice features but the Sony was by far the most feature rich. The MX MPEG movie format by far the best movie format that I've seen on these digital cameras. The Sony has full sound and 640x480 resolution (great for displaying on the TV) and will record for as long as you have Memory Stick space. I've made numerous little movies that were spur of the moment that I certainly would not have thought to bring out my camcorder. The photo's are excellent and the menu system very intuitive. Navigation is nice but like other cameras, the nestling of the file directories is somewhat tedious to navigate through. The biggest disappointment was with the included software. The Imagemixer is a mediocre software at best, not that easy to use and very limited features. Sony does not even provide a image browser for those folks that just want to see the pictures and maybe put up a quick slideshow. Cannon at least has the ZoomBrowserEX software, Sony doesn't give anything. I can't rate the value of this camera since I got it through points but I would have definitely paid the going rate to get this camera vs the others.

Summary: This Camera is Awesome!
Review: This camera fulfilled every need i had for it, and at the price, after a Sony rebate, it was very affordable!

The best feature i have found on this camera is the "voice photo" option, which allows the user to take a still picture, and attach up to 40 seconds of audio to it. Since i use the camera for recording memories, it's an excellent way to have more memory than just a single picture, you get an audio clip of whatever was happening at the time as well.

it also records full VGA quality mpegs, with sound, and outputs directly to the TV!

the still pictures are excellent quality as well, anot to mention the physical design of the camera. it's great!

Summary: My First Digital Camera
Review: I have always put off getting a digital camera because I did not have much faith in the current "at home" printing technology. But I changed my mind when I discovered I can have digital pictures printed profesionally. I bought the Sony DSC-P72 in August this year and have not regretted my decision. This is my first digital camera. I like that it takes clear and crisp pictures. It's flash and AF illuminator are powerful. Allows some manual control over the settings to give help me get better pictures. Menus are very user-friendly. It took me only less than 2 hours to figure them out. I also like the rechargeable batteries that came with it. But if you're planning to go on trips better have an extra pair or two ready. It also takes normal AA batteries. Only two things I didn't like, the measly 16MB memory stick and the "slow" battery charger. Get a 256MB memory stick and you're on your way to taking tons of pictures and a (fast) travel charger. For those who are complaining that the camera cannot take multiple shots in quick succession, read the camera's instruction manual again. You can either shoot in clip motion, multi-burst mode, or burst mode. However, the picture quality will suffer if you use one of these modes. Better shoot with a film camera since we all know that as of now, film cameras are still faster than digital. Overall, I like this camera and I'm glad that I got this one as my first.
