Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 8 Megapixel Compact CameraStrengths: Almost alarmingly good quality. Good battery life, doesn’t get hot, movable body/lens allows for some shooting latitude in framing, nice timer for self portraits. Weakness: On the large side for a small person. A flip out screen would make it even better. Video function a little tricky at first. People are beginning to tell me that I’m picture crazy. But here’s the deal at the start of the summer in May I had to take a training trip, then I had to take one in June and July. Plus August I had some small trips and a big trip to Arizona. And right until August I was just using disposable cameras. But I realized I was putting myself in the poorhouse (at 10 bucks a unit, and half that or...

Sony DSC F828Strengths: Most versatile single lense I've found on any Digital SLR camera. Excellent image quality. Once you've mastered the learning curve it is a very easy camera to operate. Great manual controls. Weakness: Lacking image stabilization. ISO ratings of over 100 produce excessive "noise" in pictures. Poor low light capabilities. This is the fourth Sony Digital I've owned, and each one has been better than it's predecessor. There needs to be a lot more work done with reference to the ISO settings offered. Anything over 100 in low light will produce unacceptable "noise". A tripod, and a very cooperative subject, are necessary in low light conditions. I do a lot of wildlife photography, and early mornings, or late evenings,...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 8 Megapixel Compact CameraStrengths: Fine optics Great zoom range Impressive resolution Weakness: Color rendition a bit dull We have been extremely pleased with this camera. After years of good digital cameras with cheesy optics, it is great to have a quality lens again - and one with an impressive optical zoom. The camera feels great in your hands, and operation is intuitive. Image quality is fantastic. Lots of extras are included, including fun items like very functional MPEG recording, and the infrared night scope....

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 8 Megapixel Compact CameraStrengths: GREAT interface, MANUAL FOCUS RING and manual zoom, AWESOME picture quality, great flash, easy tripod mount... MANY others Weakness: only 7x zoom, no tripod remote included, no anti-shake equipped (as the new nikon coolpix 8800)... all i can think of though! the Sony DSC-F828 is a must have for a amature or advanced digital photographer! i put in HOURS of research to find this camera, and HOURS AND HOURS of research into the camera itself, and it truly is one-of-a-kind. of the 8MP cameras out there as of now (jan2005), the sony is the only one to offer the pleathora of features that it does. it is the only 8MP camera i have found (aside from the...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 8 Megapixel Compact CameraStrengths: Excellent lens and usability Weakness: Image stabilizer would be nice I was going to buy the Canon Digital Rebel until my mate who is a professional photographer advised me to go for the Sony 828 and I am glad I listened to him. To buy the Digital Rebel and the equivalent lenses on the Digital Rebel will cost 3 times as much as the 828. Also they are much larger in size and heavier. The Sony takes excellent sharp images, produce good detail and colour. All the...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 8 Megapixel Compact CameraStrengths: Lots of features, excellent image quality, Compact Flash, swivel lens, typical Sony innovation Weakness: Some purple fringing & ISO noise issues.....can be remidied via post-processing. PF on perhaps 4% of pics so far. I have owned the F828 since December 30, and I have taken over 3600 pictures since then. The camera is excellent, and I am amazed at the image quality. The fast Carl Zeiss lens is well suited to most occasions, and the 4-color CCD does seem to reproduce colors better. The eye detail in facial shots is amazing. Other eight-megapixel cameras have come out so far, but none have a sufficiently broad...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 8 Megapixel Compact CameraStrengths: Super sharp pictures. True 8 megapixel. Builtin flash actually works pretty well. Supports BOTH flashcards and Memory Sticks Weakness: Can not switch quickly between modes without removing eye from view finder. No external flash sync I was within a day or so of purchasing the Rebel from Canon but was waffling due to the lack of features of the Rebel compared to my old and trusty(?) 950 CoolPix. I had really wanted the next model up but at 1500 plus lens I was having some serious heartburn. I was sent a review of a preproduction Sony and I was very intrigued. It had the features, or most of them, in a reasonably designed body...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 8 Megapixel Compact CameraStrengths: Free lens hood, 28 - 200 mm lens, you can move the AF pointer almost anywhere in the frame Weakness: They did not fix the problem with the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F717 They did not fix the problem with Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F717: Metering the light is always in the center not connected to the AF point AF lock work for one shout There is no Flash Exposure Lock Annoying shutter release locking issue where you must wait before re-pressing It takes long time to write TIFF images Playback zoom is Up to 5x (almost all cameras in the market have 10x) High noise at the...

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 8 Megapixel Compact CameraStrengths: Rotating body, F 2.0, fast focus Weakness: High noise at the lowest ISO, Metering the light is not linked to the AF points, Manual option (M) is not really manual Metering the light is not linked to the AF points (You could select AF point to the lift but the metering to the middle were you could have strong light and that makes the subject to the left look dark) Manual option (M) is not really manual because the EV (exposure compensation or Exposure Value) is always over righting the shutter speed (S) and the aperture (A), and that is a huge problem when...

Sony Cybershot F828
The speed of the Sony Cybershot F828 is impressive; in fact it is one of the fastest digital cameras of its class. The colour reproduction of the Sony Cybershot F828 is rich and full of contrast. The different colour modes have their own specific features. The Sony is a very attractive camera and in many respects a sound competitor for entry level D-SLR cameras. The marvelous bright lens with a... Top

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828
Sony's DSC-F828 is a technological tour de force, with super-fast performance, amazing resolution, and excellent color. On the downside, it also has higher image noise than competing 5-megapixel models, and some tendency toward "purple fringe" around blown-out highlights. Overall, an excellent choice for sports and action shooting, or general outdoor use where you can use lower ISO settings for... Top

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828 8 Megapixel Compact Camera
Strengths: Love the swivil body, great for shooting down low holds both CF and memory stick. Great lens
Weakness: No Pc connections, difficulty working with non sony flashes
I love this camera! I know many will go on and on about noise and chromatic aberation. All of the 8 meg camera's in this class use the same chip, ( made by Sony) and this one has the best lens! The camera is much heavier than most of it's counterparts, including the digi Rebel, ( and I can vouch that its screen works much better in sunlight than the Rebels. I have big hands, and to paraphrase...
