Comments about Sony DSC-W290 12.1MP Digital Camera - Blue:

great pocket size camera, easy to use and constructed very well. Takes outstanding outdoor photos but lacks picture quality indoors. Had a six year old canon sd410 camera with only 4mp and it took better indoor pictures but also paid double the price.
