SONY's DSC F828 set some new standards for digital still cameras when it was released in early 2004. It was the first of the pseudo SLR cameras with the Sony 8 megapixel sensor, a 7x Zeiss zoom lens that ranges from 28 to 200mm in 35mm equivalents. The fo
Review Verdict: The Sony DSC-F828 was the first of its type and it is still one of the best. The Olympus 8080 challenges the Sony on some points, particularly responsiveness. And the Olympus is $500 cheaper.

Review Verdict: The Sony DSC-F828 was the first of its type and it is still one of the best. The Olympus 8080 challenges the Sony on some points, particularly responsiveness. And the Olympus is $500 cheaper.
QuickTake:
Pros: The terrific Zeiss lens the excellent manual zoom and the super resolution, “film-like� pictures. The solid all-metal build speaks quality of design and construction.
Cons: Ergonomics (a personal matter) and the electronic viewfinder. The price is high by comparison with other cameras in its class.

To transform the 4-color data into the 3-color data that your software expects, Sony has created a new "Real Imaging Processor", which has the convenient side effect of increasing both performance and battery life.
Review Verdict: The F828 is the first Sony camera that does not include a memory card. So you'll need to factor this into the purchase price. The F828 can use Memory Stick and Memory Stick Pro cards, as well as CompactFlash. Yes, you read that correctly -- the F828 has a

This is one heck of a camera " but it comes at one heck of a price. A year ago, it might have swept all before it, but now the Sony faces being undercut by real digital SLRs, with better viewfinders, faster auto-focus and greater versatility.
