Compact Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W380: they couldnā€™t resist stuffing the camera with the latest features, the developers could not

In theory, the Cyber-shot W380 is a mid-range camera that offers ordinary, no frills functionality and simple design for a reasonable price. In practice, this positioning confirms only laconic and not the thinnest body, but keep from stuffing the camera with the most modern features, the developers were unable to.

The W380 features a 14-megapixel sensor, and its 5x zoom lens from Sonyā€™s quality G-Series not only offers a wide angle 24mm , but also has a decent f/2.4 aperture at the short end.

The camera is equipped with the proprietary BIONZ processor and has all the attractive proprietary technology such as smart auto, face detection of children and adults, self-timer on a smile, a function Sweep Panorama and built-in frame editing tools.

The only difference from older models like TX7 and HX5 is the lack of high-speed shooting capabilities.

Cyber-shot W380 video writes quite decent level: 1280Ɨ720 pixels at 30 frames per second and with stereo sound. Movies with photos can be easily shown on a modern HDTV via HDMI-port, and the camera uses a 2.7-inch display for viewing and seeing while shooting .

For data storage there is 45 MB of internal memory and slots for Memory Stick and SD cards. The camera is powered by a lithium-ion battery, which lasts for shooting about 220 frames.
