Abstract: Sony has come up with a wide array of cameras this season and one among them is the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX9V. Among the diferent cameras that Sony has come up with in 2011 the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX9V is the priciest of the lot. Although there is not much...
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX9V is priced at Rs.16,990. This is a great camera and is priced competitively in the travel compact segment. It has really good zoom along with a neat 3D capture feature. The only thing we missed was the lack of aperture prior...

Abstract: We have a new favourite point-and-shooter, and it's this, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX9V. We love it more than any compact camera ever, including our previous favourite, the DSC-HX7V. There are two main reasons we like it so much. The first is that it's pac...

Brilliant LCD screen; excellent build quality; very good low-light image quality; manual exposure control; beautifully colored images; very good video quality.
Video recording takes a few seconds to initialize; can blow highlights when using auto modes, in-camera battery charging is a bit of a pain; no RAW capture.
The HX9V makes an ideal travel companion for those who enjoy life on the road, with a great feature set, including a 16x optical zoom lens. ...
Broad ‘travel zoom’ type focal range; 3D image generation; stereo sound; customisable settings and full manual control
Requires a 3D TV to make the most of some core features
Overall, the Sony comes across as a blend of Fujifilm's F600EXR travel zoom in terms of versatility and the premium end S100 from Canon in terms of sophistication. The fact that its price tag falls below both makes it even more of a compelling buy
Plenty of manual and auto options, Broad lens range, Built in GPS and 3D adds to future, proof feel
Tiny backplate buttons, Large body, Need a 3D TV for 3D images, GPS struggles to find signal indoors
Sony has packed a lot into this high-performance travel zoom that poses very serious competition for the likes of the Panasonic Lumix DMC-TZ20 , Fuji FinePix F600 EXR , plus a host of rival compact cameras that similarly incorporate a broad focal range w...
Packed with features, Good travel zoom, Built-in GPS and 3D
Need to add a 3D TV, Broader than rivals, GPS weak when indoors
Enticing the point and shoot merchant who has got a little more serious about their photography, Sony has packed a lot of firepower into the Cyber-shot HX9V’s chunky, if pocket-sized, chassis. A 16x optical zoom pushes it into travel zoom category wit
