Daddy's Camera

(Posted on 25 April 2007 - Latest Purchase)

I think it took about a week or two of searching online and reading reviews, that Daddy finally decided to get Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H2. ($700+)
Our good old Nikon CoolPix 5700 has served us for 3 years now and when it started to require a 2nd repair recently, we thought of letting it retire gracefully.

This new toy has a 12x optical zoom for zooming in on distant objects, coupled with the Sony "Super SteadyShot" optical image stabilization, so less concern of unwanted blurring from zooming with an unsteady pair of hands. It's quiet, which means I can snap sleeping pictures of my light-sleeper. Its faster than average shutter response is good for taking my two very active gals. In macro mode, it is able to focus clearly with a short distance of just 1cm from the subject. Movie recording mode (with sound), can do zooming while recording! While its manual exposure control is mainly for Daddy.

Here are some pics taken by Daddy...
