The T100 has a nice large 3 inch LCD with 230K pixels of resolution. There is no optical viewfinder on this camera. The LCD does well enough in bright light outdoors, so you shouldn’t let the lack of an optical viewfinder rule this camera out of contention . It’s not perfect outdoors, but is bright enough that you can see your shot. Color reproduction on the screen is good and the refresh rate is sufficient to provide a smooth viewing experience.
Sony's various point-and-shoot cameras generally have three things in common:They have exquisite product design,take pictures of excellent quality,and are over-priced.The 8.1 megapixel Sony Cybershot DSC-T100 is no exception.That it possesses the first two qualities I mentioned nearly made it an Editor's Choice Winner,but the steep price(Rs,24,900)knocks it out of contention.
Only canon really comes close to Sony making digital camers with alluring designs.The DSC T-100 has a very attractive brushed-metal surface and is available in silver,black,or red.The camera is just slightly smaller than a dock of cards and will easily fit into a shirt pocket or purse.its indeed a performance packed camera.
The is a nice camera in Sony’s ultra-slim T line. It definitely caters to the individual looking for a high quality, stylish camera who doesn’t mind paying a higher price, as seems to be typical for Sony products. The camera’s specs – 8 megapixels, 5x optical zoom with image stabilization, 3 inch LCD – are also pretty compelling. Image quality is good overall, but heavy noise reduction really muddies up details at sensitivities over ISO 200. The camera operates quickly and has great battery life – another big selling point for users who like to grab the impromptu shots of your friends out on the town.
