Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W300 Review

Topic:

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W300 Review Technology News, Electronics Buy Guide and Gadget Review Our review partner Digital Trends published a review of the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W300 camera.

Quote from the review: "It's hard to believe you can buy a 13.6-megapixel point-and-shoot digicam for under $349 USD from a top brand-not simply a piece of junk from some godforsaken outfit working in the farthest depths of this globalized world. Think 13 or 14MP is a lot? There's no end to the megapixel race as camera makers constantly try to outdo one another day-by-day. We've heard 14-plus megapixel compacts are due in September and we even expect 25MP D-SLRs to be introduced at the Photokina 2008 trade show around that time. Pretty amazing stuff. Read more
