Takes great pics. Easy to use, with a large LCD screen, has movie clip capability although I haven't tried it yet. Includes a media cable so you can view your pics on a TV. The only "Bad" thing about this camera is the carrying case which I use only as a ...

QuickTake:

Pros: Light weight easy to use, great pics for a compact camera.
Cons: The carrying case velcro belt loop opens too easily, nearly lost my camera 3rd day owned.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H3 Digital Camera - Review

Sony has developed a knack for packing a lot of high-end value in the entry-level model of each of their digital camera lines. In the long-zoom H-Series, the Sony H3 continues that trend with a 10x optical zoom, Advanced Sports mode, a Bionz processor, f

Sony DSC-H3 Review - Matt Grayson takes a look at the Sony DSC H3. It's a bridge camera, but only just.

Review Verdict: Luckily, the Sony DSC H3 is not marketed as pro spec as this would disappoint you. The lens, image stabiliser and build quality make the camera more appealing. The menu is too slow and seems incomplete. The dividing of the Menu hasn't grown on me like I t

Product Rating: 4.25 star(s) Sony DSC H3

Comments:
The Sony DSC H3 is one of the more compact super zoom digital cameras. This model has 8 megapixels and a 10x zoom lens. Picture quality is very good and it also has one of the lowest shutter delay times. Recommended.

Review Verdict: Picture quality, build quality and shutter delay times are all very impressive. I really enjoyed testing this camera and would be happy to own one. It is smaller than most super zoom models and sells for a reasonable price. Recommended

Comments:
The Sony DSC-H3 is the latest addition to the company's Cyber-shot H-series, forming a new entry point to the line beneath the existing DSC-H7 and DSC-H9 models

Review Verdict: The Sony H3 combines eight megapixel resolution with a 2.5-inch LCD display and a powerful Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar branded 10x optical zoom lens, offering a range from a rather tight 38mm wide-angle to a very useful 380mm telephoto. As with previous H-ser
