Sony Cybershot DSC-S980 Review

Overall Rating

Sony Cybershot DSC-S980 is a camera from Sony with a resolution of 12.3 mega pixel. Friends, 12.3 mp is a lot and thus each pic would be of great clarity. You can do a lot of things with a camera of this resolution. Taking high quality print outs (which can be even poster sized) is just one of the many uses.

Sony Cybershot DSC-S980 makes it possible to shoot from long distances. That’s because of the 4x optical zooming feature. So, you need not be in front of the objects, and you can be way far away from them. Zooming into the scene and shooting the pics, is really a wonderful experience with Sony Cybershot DSC-S980.

With Sony Cybershot DSC-S980, you’re getting a 2.7 inch liquid crystal display and using it you can view all those pics that you have taken in the big screen. Actually, you can do much more than just viewing pics, with this cool LCD screen.

Are you planning to take your family photo? Well, you’ll be lucky to have Sony Cybershot DSC-S980 with you then. That’s because, it has the ability to recognize faces upto 8 faces in a shot and thus it’ll be automatically adjusting various things so that the pic would be a perfect one – just like how it would have been if it was taken by an expert photographer.

Even if you are not steady while taking shots, the pics would be. Yup, that’s because of the “SteadyShot digital image stabilization” feature of Sony Cybershot DSC-S980.

Take photos even in low light conditions. And that too without the need of any flash. Thanks to the high ISO in Sony Cybershot DSC-S980 which is responsible for faster shutter speed, thus allowing us to take photos from where ever we want.

Features of this cool camera are not over. There are still many. Some of them are : good Scene Selection modes, Easy Shooting Modes, Histogram display, Function Guide, Multi-purpose Resize function, and the Picture Motion Browser ver. 4.0 that makes it possible to send the pics and videos from the camera to your pc.

Now, get ready for a shock !!! With all these features (including a 12.1 mp resolution), you’ll be expecting a much higher price.

But, you can own the all new Sony Cybershot DSC-S980 from Amazon for a price of just $ 149 !!!
