Elegant design; shooting and playback options; effective optical image stabilisation; 28mm wide-angle lens with 5x zoom
So-so photo quality
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W150 ranks above average on looks and features, but it doesn't quite match up to similar models on photo quality. If you're just looking for a small-scale digital shooter though, this may suit your style ...
Abstract: The Sony Cybershot DSC-W150 is a mid-range point-and-shoot digital camera that embodies the spirit of middle range point-and-shoot cameras. While the camera technically falls under the category of “ultra compact,” the DSC-W150 is a little bulkier than ...
Nice design; a lot of shooting and playback options; effective optical image stabilization; 28mm wide-angle lens with 5x zoom.

Abstract: The Sony Cybershot DSC-W150 is a pocket-sized point-and-shoot camera with 8.1 megapixels of resolution; a wide-angle, 5x optical zoom lens; and a 2.7-inch LCD monitor. Part of Sony’s extensive Cybershot series of compact digital cameras, the W150 offer...
Fast AF, no perceptible shutter lag, Higher ISOs clean and usable, Enough playback tools to keep you entertained for awhile, Truly impressive battery life,
Red channel clipping a real problem, Auto white balance is disappointing indoors, Flash shots full of red eyes, Menus still complex, confusing, and laggy to page through, Sony Cybershot DSCW150
In spite of all of the features it packs in, the Cyber-shot W150 surprised me in how cohesively it comes together. Performance qualms are all but nonexistent in this case, and red channel issues aside, you have to get down to the downright nitpicky to...
Abstract: Newly-available on the W-series cameras is Sony’s “smile shutter” mode, which automatically captures an image when your subject smiles – without having to press the shutter. This function even lets you prioritize adult or child faces to capture photos ...
Very good photo quality; ISO 800 still usable, 5X optical zoom lens with nice 30 150 mm range, Optical image stabilization, Compact metal body comes in four colors, Large and sharp 2.7" LCD display; good outdoor and low light visibility, Optical v...
Noise reduction smudges fine details, even at ISO 80 (though its not too bad), Redeye a big problem (but at least you can fix it), Lens is on the slow side, Clunky user interface, No manual controls, 10 minute movie clip limit, Flimsy plastic door ove...
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W150 is a competent little camera that offers a pleasing combination of zoom power, image stabilization, performance, and point-and-shoot features. Being that its completely devoid of manual controls, its not a great choice fo...
Excellent quality images at a wide range of sensitivities, Optical image stabilisation corrects some hand-holding issues, Large, bright LCD screen
Time to buy some Memory Sticks!, Small buttons can make navigation difficult
Yet another salvo in the megapixel war, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W150 compact digital camera cant boast a revolutionary feature-set, but it can pride itself on producing vibrant, quality photos and of course, more megapixels. ...
The picture quality is good, with fine resolution and colour rendition. At ISO200 noise reduction is well judged, although there is some blurring of fine detail. The pictures are as clean as any we have seen from an 8 megapixel camera.
There is no proper printed instruction manual, only a pamphlet that doesn’t even tell the user how to change the ISO setting or exposure compensation. If Ricoh, for example, can provide a 210 page printed manual then Sony should do no less. And we d...
We are impressed. The black model that we had for testing is handsome. It has a high quality feel and appearance. The inclusion of an optical viewfinder is a plus, even if it is small and restricted in the coverage of image area. It has the usual gimmi...
