Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 Compact Camera:
Loved the camera, used it for a year before the touch screen stopped working from a small ding on the screen housing. It's great to carry around with you, but honestly at this point if you have an iPhone....

my first sony camera

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 Compact Camera:
I've got this camera from my mom for Christmas gift last december 2010. The picture quality, video, panorama pics are great. I submerge it into the sea to test if the camera is water proof, and it works. Last april, I was on the vacation with my friends in the Philippines, then I submerge it into the fresh water. After 30mins the cover lens was peeled (a little bit)( it was located in the corner of the cover lens) and I was so disappointed after I saw it. But anyways, the camera was functioning well and I love it especially the isweep & Hand-held TW.

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 Compact Camera:
Needed to update one of the earliest Cyber-Shot models. Don't regret it a bit! Without using the flash being able to film every single move above and under water. The resolution is great - 1090x1028. After downloading the file to the computer hard drive it's easy to open it in Photoshop and chose the frame you want. Also easy to import it to any of the video editing soft and make a little "home made" movie. I just love the size and the quality this product has to offer.

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 Compact Camera:
I have not owned a camera since 88 when I lost the new one I had at Disney. Have been relying on others and my ok camera phone. Started shopping for the perfect camera for my activities of fly fishing and horses. This one fit the bill but was not to be release for months out. I was patient but anxious for it to be released before a family reunion in Alabama. I was NOT disappointed! Everyone amazed at the wonderful pics I was taking of groups/scenerry/events. Many have said they are going to purchase one. It is so small you can put in little purse, pocket or bag. I bought the green one---very subtle....looks almost silver. Wish I went with the red one. This camera makes my life more fun because I can capture people and things that are important to me---I have even found an artistic photographer in me!!! :)

More then I expected

Comments about Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX5 Compact Camera:
Ok well Im not one of those people who is concerned about the ISO and whatever else, I am 20 years old and have been wanting a digital camera for awhile but waited seriously years for the right one. When I looked for "waterproof" cameras a year or so back they were big bulky and not what I wanted, or in the case for Sony, they had water proof housing for your product. So when I saw this i was immediately sold, very sleek looks normal but its waterproof. When i got it i was shocked, I immediately ran it under water, dropped it, froze it, and stuck it in the bag less vacuum bucket, and of course it worked! :) All my friends and family all freaked out when I said look how easy it is to clean it and dropped it in water! Anyways, it takes phenomenal pictures in low light conditions, even better and more crisp pictures in the day time. this camera is highly recommended. Terrific in the pool with movies and sound, the touch screen is like the touch screens on modern cell phones. Its hard plastic i guess not the soft screen Sony used to ship about a year ago that when u touched it it pixelated where you touched. The pictures shown are just of a cat up close and underwater at a pool, just little examples. Highly recommended guaranteed not a disappointed unless your like a professional photographer then you'd probably complain about it, but for us normal people who like to have fun with pictures and can pretty much use it anywhere, then this is it!
