Comments:
Taking great photos in most situations, the DSC-W50 is a bargain at this price.
Review Verdict: With a higher ISO sensitivity than the Canon (1000 versus 800), the W50 has a theoretically better anti-shake mode. But beyond ISO 800, noise makes images unusable, even printing at 6 x 4in - a trait of almost all the cameras here
