The Cyber-shot(R) DSC-S780 digital camera raises the bar for other cameras in this class. It features advanced Face Detection technology, which optimizes focus, exposure, and color for accurate reproduction of up to three faces. Face Detection technology automatically controls focus, exposure, color, and flash to help reveal faces in shadows, make skin tones look more natural, reduce red-eye, and eliminate harsh facial glare, so your photos bring out every expression on every face in every shot. The advanced Sony Super HAD(TM) (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise. A five-point auto focus evaluates your shot at 5 points on your screen so you'll get great results even with off-center subjects that make interesting photocompositions. The large, bright 2.5" TFT LCD display makes it easy to compose shots, check results, and read menus in sharp natural color, even in bright sunlight. You can take three shots automatically at 1-second intervals (VGA standard mode) or 2-second intervals (full resolution mode). When shooting photos using your camera and an optional GPS unit, the software even provides a convenient map view function that lets you sort photos by location and displays their origin on a world map. Capture 320 x 240 audio video clips at up to 30 frames per second. A quick press of the Home button opens your user-friendly graphical interface and you can select functions by simply moving a cursor vertically or horizontally to the appropriate icon. Function names and the on-screen Function Guide display make it easier to learn camera setup operations.

 User friendly, very easy to handle.Jul 02, 2008
By DJ Come of Age
"DJ COA"
This is an excellent product. I bought my Sony to make video reviews and to take a multitude of pictures. The camera comes with a very user friendly "how to" manual for those of us who aren't too tech savvy. For the price, it is a steal. The picture quality is excellent and rivals the quality from a lot of more expensive cameras. The Sony software isn't interchangeable with other brands so be ready to pay a little more to equip your product with Sony only products. All in all, an excellent purchase!

Awesome cameraNov 23, 2008
By Rosaidh Ceallach
This was a birthday gift for my teenager. The camera is awesome. In my opinion, better than the Canon PowerShot I have. It has a very nice display, the pictures are clear and crisp. The shutter movement is quick. I would recommend as a good deal for anyone needing a quality camera for a good price.

Terrific Camera!May 24, 2009
By Penny Pinching Polly
"Check out my website for the best deals & contests!"
I use my Sony Cybershot primarily for capturing precious moments involving my ninja fast 3 year old. It is crucial that the camera I am using produce high quality photos that I can have printed in 8 x 10 and 10 x 13 sizes. My Cybershot has NOT let me down!
This camera is lightweight, compact, but packs a very heavy punch. I have used it to take photos which have been turned into greeting cards, into poster size prints, and used on web sites. The quality is that good!
The Sony Cybershot is very user friendly, has a great zoom feature, and is worth every penny. This is a TRUE "point & shoot" digital camera.
I highly recommend this camera. There is now a newer model, Sony Cybershot DSC-S980 12MP Digital Camera with 4x Optical Zoom with Super Steady Shot Image Stabilization (Black), with 12MP, rather than the 8.1MP.
