The DSC-T900 offers a step up in features and capabilities from the T90 with a larger and higher quality touch-screen LCD, and HDMI output with the included stand and stereo sound for movie recording. Reviews This camera is very compact and produces HD video and pictures. Like most cameras in this price category, low light conditions will ruin your video or picture if you don't use a flash. Very easy to use via the touch screen on the back. The video is 720p HD in mp4 format. The biggest con with this camera is you can't simply plug it in to recharge the battery. You are required to pull the battery, and plug it in to a separate charger unit. Plus being Sony they don't use standard USB cords and have their own that is a base unit you must mount the camera on in order to download your media off of it. The other con is enabling the flash. You can't manually turn it on like most cameras. The only way it's available is if you use the simple mode and then you have control over it. If you want to use a custom mode or one of the other predefined modes then you are locked out of using the flash. Why they did that I have no idea. Makes the camera slightly less useful to me. I've owned many different brands of point and shoot cameras such as Nikon, Kodak, and Canon. There's a few things I do not care for with this camera: First is the lens location. It's easy for myself or anyone to smudge the lense. it's located on the upper right side when looking towards it. When you try to hold the camera steady with both hands , you will naturally want to hold it at the sides with your thumb and forefingers. That's where your index finger will touch the lense. You have to consciously think how you want to hold it. Second the usb transfer cable is only in the docking unit. That's another bulky part to take with you and in fact I don't know where I have placed it. Thirdly it seems to overexpose the pic. Unless you're in the perfect lighting the picture will need some adjustment. Lastly is the switch for camera and video. In your pocket or purse , the switch is easily moved from left to right which switches to video. It takes a few seconds switch to different modes once you have the power on. I love my new camera. It has nice features and the picture quality is just AMAZING. It's as if it were an SLR camera. I can take it anywhere with me and take pictures fast. The battery doesn't last more than 3 hours but other than that, i'm glad i choose this camera. own the t900 (red)for about 3months.I must admit that I know little about how electronics work.However, I have enjoyed every bit of its use. I received a lot of compliments and I love it and have no regrets about purchasing it. The delivery also came earlier than I expected (I ordered on an evening and it was delivered the afternoon of the next day)cool. I've had my red T900 for a few weeks and here's a list of the things I love, in roughly decreasing order of importance: - GREAT video quality. This camera shoots 720p videos at 30fps, and the quality both indoors and outdoors has far exceeded my expectations. I previously used a T100 but also use cameras from Fuji and Casio for some occasions, and the difference between the T900's 720p high-quality mode and the typical VGA fine mode on other cameras is like day and night. Not only do you get HDTV resolution, the colors are more vibrant and the clarity is just great. - You can optically zoom the lens during video recording. This is a must-have feature for me as I mostly shoot video clips of my kids. - Very good still picture quality. This is no digital SLR, for sure, and the image quality is probably not as excellent as Canon's and Panasonic's compact digital cameras, but it's still very good. I read some reviews before deciding on this camera and I had worries about picture quality, but they were dispelled the minute I reviewed the still images on my PC. Very good contrast and clarity, and they make great prints. - Smile shutter. I never thought I'd buy into this feature, but now I absolutely love it! You can set the sensitivity to three levels, and you can even choose "child priority" or "adult priorit"! And it really works! This is just totally awesome for taking still shots of my kids. (Smile shutter does not work in video mode.) - Large 3.5" touch-screen LCD. There're no conventional controls, just touch-screen, like most Sony camcorders. The LCD is 1920x480 in resolution, and the menu text looks a little jagged, but you'll love its brightness, fast speed, and clarity for viewing images. - Fairly easy to use. Sony employs a top-level HOME menu system with sub menus, but it's not too confusing, just a tad harder to figure out the advanced stuff than on an, say, iPod touch. - Stylish and feature-rich. This is quite thin but still features 4x optical zoom with optical stabilization. The zoom also works in movie-recording mode. It takes Memory Stick PRO Duo cards up to 16GB. Battery lasts about 150 pictures with flash. Not bad. It's light-weight so easy to carry in a pocket, too. In short, I love this digital camera. It's perfect for all occasions.
