Cons: Confusing shooting modes; Soft corners at wide angle; Image noise even at lowest ISO; Cramped controls; LCD difficult to see in bright sunlight.

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX10 is one of a new crop of 16-megapixel compact cameras from Sony to offer an array of shooting features plus high definition video recording in AVCHD format. Geared at mainstream consumers, with a price tag of $260, the WX10 combines intelligent shooting features for the point-and-shooters with a Manual Mode and more sophisticated functions for those who want to experiment. Look and Feel: The Sony Cyber-shot WX10 is fairly understated aesthetically, with a dull black finish.
With a body measuring about the width and height of a stack of business cards, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX10 point-and-shoot camera ($280 as of May 4, 2011) packs a suprising amount of features into a slight frame. It offers not only (very limited) manual controls for shutter and aperture, but also a buffet of futuristic extras: three separate ways to capture 3D images, 1080i video capture at a smooth 60 frames per second, and modes for low-light shooting, panorama images, and backlight correction. What's more, it has a 7X-optical-zoom lens, which is slightly mind-boggling given the camera's size. Although it shoots good-quality photos and videos, they're not amazing; the WX10 doesn't take the sharpest pictures, and its price is a bit high. But if you value genuine put-it-in-your-pocket portability as well as innovative in-camera extras, the WX10 is among the leaders of the ultracompact class. Hardware and Design Wide AngleFull TelephotoThe Cyber-shot DSC-WX10 boasts a 16-megapixel Exmor R CMOS sensor; like most recent Sony CMOS-sensored point-and-shoots, it does a good job in low-light situations.
