  With Sony Cyber-shot S500, you can grab a bunch of features with fitted-to-the-pocket budget and go clicking. Let's have a look.....

  Compact, Good picture quality, Easy to use controls, Minimal noise in higher ISO settings

  Low resolution LCD, LCD performs badly in outdoor lighting conditions, Buttons are sluggish at times, Movies recorded only at 320X240.
