I bought this to replace an much older Sony digital point-and-shoot camera I have had for ten years. After a couple of weeks Im quite pleased with this little camera. Picture quality is excellent -- I download photos to my computer and print them on my inkjet color printer. A few comments. -- I use the camera only for photos, dont use the movie function. You do not need the PlayMemories software (or whatever its called) to download photos. Just plug the USB cable that comes with the camera into a USB slot on your computer, follow the prompts, and download photos. -- Batteries. A previous comment mentioned low battery life on the battery that comes with the camera. Yes, the supplied battery has little capacity. Amazon has a bundle with two BN-1 batteries, charged, USB cable, and a cable to use your car cigarette lighter to charge the batteries. The BN-1 batteries have much greater capacity. -- Size. This is a very small camera. With my old, big fingers, I have a little trouble punching the tiny buttons to change modes, etc. Fortunately, most of what I do is point-and-shoot on full automatic mode. While the very small size makes it a little difficult for people with big fingers to push the right button, the size is perfect for slipping into a pocket or purse . . . it takes up very little room. I have two Canon digital SLRs that I use for serious photography. This little camera is just fine for my casual shooting.

This camera has been an absolute nightmare. The best thing about it is that the picture quality is better than average for a camera in this price range. Now for the bad. We originally owned a Sony DSC-WX9 which has been a great little camera. As other reviewers have said, they took all the good things from that camera and got rid of them. Here are the problems weve had: 1. Camera takes pictures without an SD card inserted and DOES NOT warn you. The problem with this is that your pictures are never saved. This wouldnt be a problem because who takes pictures without an SD card, right? 2. The camera ejects the SD memory card at the SLIGHTEST bump or movement of the camera. No getting around this. Take 10-30 photos, check the replay and there are no photos. What!? Thats right, the card was ever so slightly ejected and didnt warn us that our photos were not being saved. 3. Repair service is horrible. Sent the camera in for repair. Three weeks later we had no communication of the status. Finally Amazon refunded our money. Thank you Amazon! 4. The wireless mode is awful. Im thinking most cameras have a wireless mode that requires installing software or signing up for their cloud service. This is great if you have a Windows computer, otherwise, you cant use it. Dont make me install other software, it should be able to save to a shared drive. 5. Picture modes are worse than the DSC-WX9, in fact, every mode seemed to take identical photos. 6. The colors were very yellow, the pictures are blurrier and the time to save a photo was much longer. What happened Sony? How did you manage to make your new camera worse than the old one?

I LOVE THIS CAMERA! I wanted a pocket camera so I didnt have to use my phone for shots -- I hate my phone pix. I got this as a gift two years ago and its the best. Easily transfers shots to my phone and takes great pix for a point and shoot (even my pro photographer husband agrees -- I just tell him I am that good!). I dropped my old one down marble stairs so it (understandably) was no use to me. I didnt want a newer model, or one with bells and whistles -- I wanted THIS one. I am so happy I was able to get it again.

Liked this camera a lot. I wanted something small to take to Mardi Gras, and this was exactly what I wanted. The only drawback, like other people noted, was the inability to get the photos to transfer via wifi/Bluetooth. I was really wanting to post stuff to Facebook in real time, or at leas the same day I took the pics, but I had to wait till I got home and downloaded them on my computer. I ended up using my iPhone for pics more than I wanted to, but other than the inability for me to get my pics online quickly, its a great camera, and I liked the quality of the photos. I am going to try again to figure out the instructions for wifi, but no biggie if I cant get it.

Sony DSCWX220/B 18.2 MP Digital Camera with 2.7-Inch LCD (Black) Definitely not worth the price I paid for it which was $178 in July 16 (& now I see its actually more! what?!), when Sony itself says the price of this camera is actually $84!! This camera is not very sturdily made, its too small/compact even for my smaller fingers, & the placement of the buttons needs improvement -mainly the movie REC button, which is too often accidentally pushed on while simply trying to hold the camera. I purchased it because my old Sony Cybershots flash stopped working & this camera had comparable functions/capabilities & seemed like a decent camera (though my old Sony camera was a little bigger, made of metal,more durable, had a better set up to it). Yes, this Sony has a variety of functions & it takes good photographs EXCEPT for the ongoing issue it has when I take photographs, mainly when using the flash (both flash functions), theres a shadow/ing in the lower left corner!(which can vary in the size & density with each use) Around 3 months after I purchased this camera I began noticing a slight shadow on the screen & on my photographs, more often when I utilized the flash. (And yes, I tried different settings, made sure firmware up to date, reset it, etc!) I use it more often without the flash than with, but this shadowing problem gradually began to worsen in size & density (sometimes it wasnt as bad & sometimes it was quite bad & sometimes the shadowing also appeared in the upper left corner). Ive never used the camera except in my home & handled it with care, so I thought perhaps something had been loosened when it had been shipped to me since Amazon did not pack it securely. Several months in I finally called Sony because this shadowing problem had become very bad & it had another issue that occurred a couple of times -& camera was still under warranty. Sony instructed me to ship it to a camera repair shop (Precision Camera in CT, which theyve a contract with to service all their cameras), which has a terrible record, often Not fixing peoples cameras, but Sony gave me no other choice. This camera shop had it for one day supposedly repaired & cleaned it & returned it to me -& it was NOT fixed / still had the shadow problem. Sony again instructed me to send it back to the camera shop & this happened 2 more times AND all 3 times camera repair shop did NOT repair this problem! And only then did Sony instruct me to return camera to them & theyd send me a replacement camera, the same exact mode, which they did - AND IT HAS THE SAME PROBLEM AND ON BOTH LEFT CORNERS of screen & photographs!!! (Plus this cameras access panel to the SD Card & Battery is loose too!) This continual issue/problem adversely affects using this camera / taking photographs esp. of specific things I need to photograph & I need clear quality photographs of! -So I guess I must live with many of my photographs having a shadowed corner AND hope it doesnt worsen as it did with the prior camera!! I can deal with the other things, but this issue/problem is very unacceptable! I dont have the money to buy another camera (nor could I actually afford to buy this one, as I cant even afford even to met my basic necessities, but I require a good digital camera). Two of the same exact camera with the same exact problem - theres something defective with this model of Sony camera & I wish Id known about this before because I would NOT have purchased this over-priced & problematic camera. :( P.S. I included a couple of photographs of my two furkids to show this model of cameras "shadow/ing" defect/problem. Its not so bad now/yet BUT thats how it started out with my last Sony DSCWX220 camera that this camera is the replacement for! Also, as I said, this shadowing can varies with each use of the camera -a few photos may not be as bad then one or two are much worse/shadows more dense more sizable then goes back to not as bad...BUT this is a problem that should not be occurring at all, whatever the size & density!!!

I got a lemon - Brought this new camera to my trip to Japan. Used carefully by what the instructions said. It stopped working actually on the 2nd date of my trip there, but, the worst, it didnt tell me until Day 5. You could imagine how many once-in-a-lifetime moments lost in this camera, by the time I was informed by this machine. Anyway, this camera is in the process under the warranty. Its a joke. Update on 04/15/16 - Just talked with Sony Customer Service to claim the one year warranty on this item. The customer service person expressed nonchalantly, "Send back for free repair within 3 months. No replacement regardless.", even I showed and proved that this camera was considered almost a "DOA" (Dead On Arrival) item. She kept saying, "No replacement. So want me to process repair or not? Thank you!" After hung up, I simply tosses this lemon to the trash can, for I can never afford to lose any more of my future precious pictures/clips on a brand new camera that needs to be repaired after 2-day lifetime, as a start.

It works great. I had to have this model as the flash can be set to flash every time regardless of the lighting situation. I need to take pics inside homes and sometimes there is too much light coming from windows and most automatic cameras wont flash and the pics come out too dark. I have tried many cameras which are made for dummies that just take pics but dont need to have flash on at all times.

I bought this camera when it first came out, I also bought a underwater case for scuba diving. This camera is awesome, it takes unbeleiveable pictures, under water and above, sharp colors, sharp pictures, even indoors it takes better pictures without the flash than with flash. This is the second camera that Ive bought, my 33 year old daughter borrowed mine for her daughters birthday because her camera quit working, she loved it and was so impressed with the picture quality that she wants one for her birthday, I was pleasantly supprised to see they still make this exact camera, and a very reasonable price. Perfect size, will fit in your pocket, but substantial enough to hold onto, (not too small).

First off, Amazon is great! I bought this Camera for my Hawaii trip. unfortunately it decided to stop working 3 days into the trip. contacted Amazon and they sent a replacement ASAP to me in Hawaii. Im from CA. Thanks Amazon!!. now the camera is great! great picture great videos, really still shooting! You can also control from your phone , take pictures, transfer shots from camera to phone. pretty easy, sometimes it disconnects but just a few seconds delay. Price has gone up since I purchased. definately worth it.

This is a very nice camera. I like the features that are available. The WiFi transfer seems to be very slow, even on a AC network, when you are transferring the full size photos. It is a nice feature, but I have just gone to manual downloads of the photos for speed. The user interface is not too difficult, but it can be a small pain when you are trying to change the features and get those differing photos. It is a manageable interface and the smart exposure settings work well in most situations for an average photo. The WiFi connection to a smartphone is a nice feature when taking those photos that you also want to be in. It also saves a small version of the photo on your Android device (Cant speak to the iPhone interface). It has provided a great option to taking photos with my smartphone alone and doesnt take up a lot of extra space. Very light and high detail photos for a compact camera. Dont hesitate if you are looking for something to take cleaner photos than most smartphones without carrying around your dSLR for those active events.
