The Sony Cybershot DSC H5 How does it compare with the S3, FZ7, and Z612?

Date of Review:  Jul 14, 2006
The Bottom Line: The H5 is a contender in the monster zoom IS digicam class, but it may not be the best choice for many purchasers
Review: One of the hottest battles in the digital camera wars is currently being waged in the monster zoom digicam market. Most monster zoom digicams provide users with a wide range (10X-12X) image stabilized zoom, much of the flexibility and control of a...

A great ultra zoom digital camera with built-in memory...

Date of Review:  Jun 9, 2006
The Bottom Line: This would be a perfect camera if they just added the ability to use external flash.
Review: One of my friends just purchased this new Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H5 digital camera and asked me to check it out to see if it was worth it or not. I had used this camera for a week before he came and took it away from me. This camera costs about $500...

Sony Cyber-shot? DSC-H5 7.2MP Digital Camera With 12x Optical Stabilized Zoom

Date of Review:  Jul 10, 2006
The Bottom Line: I recommend Sony DSC-H5 if you want a 7.2MP camera with good optics, 12x optical zoom and image stabilization that has a 3-inch screen
Review: I used both the 5- Megapixel Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H1 and the new 6-Megapixel Sony DSC-H2. Both of them worked pretty well, but its competition was better in focusing time and size. Now I got my hands on the new 7.2-Megapixel Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-H5...

The Winner by a Nose

Date of Review:  Aug 21, 2006
The Bottom Line: This is a camera that 2 years ago nobody would have thought would be available at anywhere near this price.
Review: I agonized over the choice of what to augment my Kodak DX7590 with. No mistake, the DX7590 is a great camera, but I needed something with a longer zoom and higher resolution.

The dSLR route I did not care to go as the trade-off is (at an...

Not bad, but needs help

Date of Review:  Jan 1, 2008
The Bottom Line: Would look into a camera that doesn't require so much attention to every photo, Lighting, ect..
Review: I find that this camera was GREAT at the Store, because of the lighting in the store, it was able to click off picture after picture without any slowdown. Now that I have owned it for over a year, I wish I would have waited for one that was a little...

Sony Cyber-shot? DSC-H5 Digital Camera

Date of Review:  Dec 27, 2006
Review: I brought this camera back after two weeks of using it. I could not get good action shots inside (in any mode). They all came out blurry. I returned it and bought the Cannon Power Shot S3 IS. While at the store, I used the display models for the...

Great High-End Camera with features for both Beginners and Experts...

Date of Review:  Jun 17, 2006
The Bottom Line: If you want a good, solid and eye-catching camera with superb quality shots...forget the price and realize this camera blows away the competition and is worth every penny.
Review: I picked up this camera a few days ago after lots of research and deliberation. I knew I wanted something better than the myriad of compact, 4-6 Megapixel, run-of-the-mill cameras.

Price: I wasn't so much concerned with the price of this...

Low quality, good pictures

Date of Review:  Oct 27, 2007
The Bottom Line: Either buy an extended warranty or don't buy from Sony.
Review: I have owned a Sony DSC-H5 for a year and found today that it will no longer autofocus when I press the shutter button halfway down. I treat my camera equipment very carefully, so abuse is not the issue. After reading posts from other consumers who...

Great camera with a serious flaw

Date of Review:  Jun 2, 2007
The Bottom Line: Buy something else.
Review: The Sony Cybershot DSC-H5 is my second digital camera, a huge step up from the simple point and click Nikon that I bought five years ago. Like that camera, you can use the Cybershot in a fully automated mode right out of the box. But what makes this...
