Comments about Sony DSC-H55 14.1MP Digital Camera - Black:

I bought this camera to bring abroad to Ireland with me for the semester. The panorama feature is fabulous and extremely easy to use and the camera itself is straight forward but offers more complicated settings if desired. All the other students on my trip talk about how much they love the pictures and the image quality is excellent. I did have a minor problem with the lens opening a few times but think it may have been from not being properly stored in my bag (a friend who has the same camera reported having a similar issue once).

Comments about Sony DSC-H55 14.1MP Digital Camera - Black:

Was pleasantly surprised by ease of handling and set-up. Picture quality is impressive, in particular when light conditions are not brilliant. Like in particular the second shot facility. Added software is very useful to catalogue photos, and online registration is a huge step forward. In all: good value for money and efinitely worth a try.

Only con (so far): weak flash (also drains battery quickly).
