When shopping for a Sony digital camera, it is important to consider your needs in terms of features versus usability. The features needed by a professional photographer are obviously not the same as those needed by someone who simply wants to take some photos at a party. Still, with advancements in technology, there are a variety of options to choose from that can offer both convenience and quality pictures. If you are looking for a powerful camera that can fit in your pocket, the Sony Cybershot DSC-T1 digital camera might be a good option. Often described as twice the camera at half the size, the Cybershot T1 has many features found on larger cameras, yet is only about the size of a credit card. This camera includes many of the quality options found on most Sony cameras, including Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lenses, which are specifically produced for compact cameras. With the five mega-pixel resolution found on the T1, more light can pass to each pixel, increasing image quality and reducing noise. In addition to this, the T1 has a 3x optical / 2x digital zoom. The continuous auto-focus option allows you to lock focus on fast-moving objects. In addition to these features, the T1 has a 2.5" hybrid LCD monitor. This is significantly larger than the 1.5" monitors typically offered in cameras of this class. In addition to still photography, the Sony Cybershot T1 can also capture full-screen VGA video at 30 frames per second. By using video, mail mode files are captured at a smaller size suitable for email. For versatility of options within a compact package, the Sony Cybershot T1 is a solid option.
