Five cameras to look at when shopping

Sony CyberShot W190

Price: Rs. 9,800

If you think the Canon A480 is too crude for your taste, you may want to take a look at this one.

Slimmer, sleeker and definitely much better looking than most cameras in this price range, the Sony W190 features a 12 MP CCD and a 35-105mm Sony branded 3x optical zoom lens. Aperture varies from f/3.1 to f/5.6 across the zoom range. The back of the camera houses the 2.7-inch (230K) LCD that acts as the viewfinder. Sensitivity ranges from ISO 100 to ISO 3200.

The W190 also makes use of Digital Image Stabilisation, which functions by raising the camera's sensitivity (ISO) to reduce motion blurring. It also includes face detection and features in-camera red-eye correction and trimming functions.

Other features include seven scene modes, a 320 x 240 pixels (QVGA) 30 frames per second video mode, and both USB 2.0 / and video output connections. Powered by a proprietary NP-BK1 InfoLithium rechargeable battery, the W190 should last for more than 180 clicks on a single charge.

In addition to the 12MB built-in memory, it has a Memory Stick Duo / PRO Duo card slot to store all the pictures and videos that you shoot.

Available in two colors - red and black, the Sony CyberShot should be available for Rs. 9,800 with a three-year warranty from Sony.

Some dealers may bundle a 2GB MS Pro DUO.

Poor expert! he has forgotten to write about FUJIFILM J 27, which is best of them all.. at around 6600 INR, its 10.2 MP with 720p video recording, auto focus, and scene recognition. and lots more!!!

how can u mention samsung cam in a article ??? its pathetic .. we can't call it a camera

Nikhil

,Delhi, on Oct 20, 2009 04:45 PM

Poor article... We did not merely want a spec sheet of 5 cameras... It would have been much more useful if you had compared the image quality a little more thoroughly... You are pitting Kodak against the likes of Canon without even comparing the lens quality...

Informative article especially during these festive sales.

It is quite likely that most cams are used more for videography than photography. I think it would have also helped if the video capabilities were mentioned..

I got a Kodak V12 series 12 MP Touch Screen... SMART / FACE DET..etc etc for INR 9700 few months back... ? I believe that should be better than M380 series... ???

In a lot of cameras you mention CCD. Do you mean sensor or do you actually mean a CCD sensor against a CMOS sensor? Aren't CCD sensors inherently costlier than CMOS sensor of the same size? Also, it would vastly help next time if you mention the physical size of the sensor. Thanks.

i love canon not just because it is good, but also because the firmware can be hacked to get more out of it

I have a canon A720 6X optics best in the class for me.
