Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H70

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H70 digital camera is a pocket camera with a 10x zoom starting at 25mm and reaching out to 250mm, a great choice as an everywhere camera, or a vacation camera. With a 16.1-megapixel sensor, a Bionz-branded image processor, the Sony H70 should offer good speed and image quality when needed. The Sony H70's lens carries the same Sony G branding as the company's digital SLR lenses, an indication of its confidence in the lens' optical performance. The Sony H70 has a two step aperture, which varies from f/3.5 to f/5.5 across the zoom range. At wide-angle the alternate aperture is f/8.0, and the lens also includes a built-in neutral density filter. To help combat blur from camera shake, the Sony DSC-H70's lens includes an optical stabilization mechanism that works in concert with a built-in gyro sensor to detect and correct for camera motion. As with certain of Sony's other recent Cyber-shot cameras, the stabilization function works with up to 10x increased power in Movie mode, taking advantage of the more forgiving lower resolution of the movies as compared to still images.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H70

The 16-megapixel Cyber-shot DSC-H70 is the least expensive of Sony's 2011 compact megazooms and offers little more than a resolution bump from the camera it's replacing, 2010's 14-megapixel DSC-H55. The extra resolution doesn't make the photos any better and they aren't any more usable for enlargements or cropping. However, they aren't necessarily any worse, either; the H55 produced very nice photos, particularly at and below ISO 100, and so does the H70. Also carried over from the H55 is its slow shooting performance, which could potentially make the H70 frustrating to use, especially if you're shooting moving subjects. Otherwise, the camera is pretty good, thanks to a large LCD, a high-quality lens, and a decent number of shooting options, all at a reasonable price. On the other hand, it might not be the best value because the Sony DSC-HX7V has much more to offer for an extra $70. Photo quality from the H70 is very good to excellent for its class, but like most compact cameras it still stumbles at higher ISOs. Photos at ISO 80 and 100 are sharp with very good fine detail and low noise. At ISO 200, subjects soften some, losing a touch of sharpness and fine detail.
