+ Excellent combination of zoom and pixel quality and very, very light. Perfect for the dabbling photographer that wants a bit more than the snap & shoot camera (which i still carry around for every day use) but you don't want or need to go for the SLR option. All round a great camera - totally reccommended.

Would have given 10/10 but for the fact you can't put a datestamp on the photos (as sometimes i like to do). If you don't want to do that then it's great. Only other small niggle is that with such a large LCD screen it can drain power and you need to take the battery out of the camera to charge.
Nothing majorly wrong with it - would buy it again tomorrow.

+ Sony quality and build. Lots of useful features like smile detection and image stabilization. Looks good too! Bought the camera for taking to sporting events - it has very fast shutter speeds.
- Would have been nice to have a case included. The instruction manual is on a cd - would have liked a paper version. I had to print it out - thats alot of paper (and ink).

+ Would highly recommend, an easy point and shoot camera if you like but with loads of added features if you want to get a bit more technical.
- A bit on the large size for youre pocket but if you want a great zoom lense then its worth putting up with.
purchased 19 May 2008
+ Initial experience with the camera is that it is very easy to use and the results on automatic setting was pleasently surprising. Still getting used to the various functions on the manual settings but early indications are all positive. The "super steady shot" feature is excellent and picture quality in poor light when not using the flash is also very good.
- Not yet encountered any problems with the camera in respect of use and picture quality

+ An all in one camera experioence for e - a relative beginner.
- Disappointed that LED screen is limited in its movement - no good when camera is turnes sideways for 'tall' subjects.
purchased 14 Oct 2008
+ Excelent picture (you don't see dots like other brands), Sound quality capture, Night mode, Zoom.
- None. This camera filled all gaps.
purchased 17 Dec 2008
+ easy to use with options of point and shoot but can be used as a sophisticated piece of equipment
- Should be supplied with a screen cover - perhaps a bundle price

+ Easy to use. Compact. Great functions. Trusted Sony make.
- Maybe this camera could come with memory stick and case.
purchased 23 Sep 2008
+ Ease of use - after having spent many hours reading the many pieces of paper that accommpanied tyhe camera
- Too many directions on different enclosed paper items. Difficult to follow if I have to keep looking on different instructions. Put all the information for the camera in one language on one page. The outcome would be the same number of information sheets as now but much easier to get the information that is being seeked.

+ NOT USED IT MUCH AS YET --BUT SEEMS WORTH THE MONEY AS THE FEW PICS I HAVE TAKEN ARE CLEAR .

Its Carl Zeiss telephoto lens and manual features are strong, but the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H50's focus-lock is erratic, and startup is slow.
