back to article Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700 compact camera

Sony is renowned for its stylish products, and the Cyber-shot DSC-T700 is no exception. But it'll take more than just good looks to convince us that this is a camera worth opening your wallet for. This super-slim 10.1-megapixel digicam comes in a brushed aluminium body with a whopping 3.5in display area - almost 922,000 pixels …

    Oh dear.. 1920x480....

    1920/3 = 640

    You have been duped by the old '1920 pixels' spec sheet where they count red, green and blue as seperate pixels. This is just a bog standard 640x480 display...

    If it was 1920x480 it would be the highest definition 3" display in the world.

    Dust (not magic)

    I'm getting a new camera for crimbo, it won't be a Sony tho, as the new camera will replace my current Sont DSC-P200 whose sensor long ago got covered in dust... sucked into the camera no doubt whilst zooming in and out.

    Have things improved?

    DSC-T100

    Sony seem to have been taking backwards steps ever since the DSC-T100 which I own and love. All the later models with touchscreen have been rubbish and produce worse images from what I can see despite all the new gimmicks that have been added to the product.

    It's a shame because I could use a new pocket snapper with slightly higher resolution (think the T100 is 'only' 8MP) and improved manual controls and although I've had a good experience with my current Sony they don't seem to be delivering in the newer versions of the camera.

    640x480

    I wonder if someone has ported Doom to this thing; it would be interesting play Doom with a touchscreen interface. Although I suspect that walking around Westminster with a camera that makes shotgun noises would be a bad idea.

    @ OrsonX

    I have that same camera: in the course of nearly four years of solid use in smoky pubs (remember them?), deserts, ghost towns, concerts, beaches, cities and hillsides it's never put a foot wrong, let alone ingested any dust that's impinged noticeably on the sensor.

    Memory Stick Eats Itself

    Yay - with that much internal storage one could almost do without the stupid Memory Stick Pro-prietary. I hope its interface has a mass storage mode.

    @stu: Oh gawd - how pathetic is that lie about the display?
