Product ReviewsSony Cyber-shot DSC-W50 6.0MP Digital Camera - Silver

Oldie but goodie

First of all, I realize this camera isn’t the best in terms of picture quality and density, but that isn’t why I bought it. My iPhone takes better quality pictures. I bought it because it takes good enough pictures, and can be carried on the wrist while riding my motorcycle. My wife is able to take pictures and we aren’t as concerned about dropping the camera as we would our phone. This camera can be operated by a child. Its controls and functions are very intuitive and user friendly. We bought extra batteries for less that $10, and expect to be using this camera a lot in the future.Read full review...

Not Bad, but needed more equipment

The camera is well and working although it came without the battery that usually comes with the camera and the shutter button because of this I had to buy a memory card, battery, and shutter button replacement all at onceRead full review...

Considering the age and options, it's a great camera

This is my second one - I loved my first one...used it all the time. I wouldn't call it high quality these days...and it's missing cooler things that you can do with a fully manual SLR camera...but within those boundaries, it is top notch.

My first one's lens get stuck in an open position - after 8 years of pretty heavy use (and being dropped many times).Read full review...

The real deal!

If you love infrared photography this is a good starting point and definately the way to go. Those of us who remember the hassle of shooting IR with film can appreciate that. Several years ago I did some infrared shooting with my Nikon D100. I got great results but having to deal with setting up a tripod for every shot limited subject matter. I recently bought a Nikon D70 to do some more IR photography and got the same results as my old D100. Enough about that. I recently found out about IR converted cameras but the cost was out of my range so I decided to look around. I found several options and was surprised to see that point and shoot cameras had been converted to IR as well. I purchased a Sony DSC-W50 just to have something to "play" with, was I ever surprised! First, no more tripod setting up, drop in IR filter to deal with, and amazing results. I went back to a previous location that I had used my D70 and shot with my DSC-W50. Surprisingly, I got better results. Remember, I use a drop in filter to shoot with my D70. If you can afford a converted DSLR, by all means go for it. You'll have the same shooting flexibility as with an IR converted point and shoot, except that it won't fit nicely in your pocket. The only advice I can offer in buying an IR converted camera is the more megapixels the better. Just like all digital camera purchases. As a side note, I know I'm not supposed to say anything about the seller, but I just want to add something to this. I'm not going to mention the seller by name, but, I wish I would have waited to leave my feedback. The fist camera I purchased died after 7 shots. I contacted the seller and it was replaced. For that, he deserves an extra 5 stars.Read full review...

Works for me

Have had one of these for years and used it for vacations, reunions, kid shots and other things. It is small, easy to carry and the battery lasts for a reasonable time.

Great bargain. Simple and adequate for a beginner.

Everything works well. It replaces my broken one, thus I am familiar with all its features.

Very good camera. I bought this camera as a replacement for a Sony Cyber-shot W30. Simple to use. Takes great quality pictures. Nice LCD display.

Sony Cyber Shot pocket camera

Hard to find a pocket sized camera with an optical view finder.
