We like:
Classy styling; giant touchscreen interface; non-existent shutter lag; decent battery life

Pointless 'smile shutter' feature; clunky zoom control

CNET.co.uk judgement:
If touchscreen compacts are for you, then the classy Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T70 is for you. One of the comeliest compacts we've seen for a while, and respectably-featured with it. Pictures are decent, the shutter is fast enough to take your hand off and did we mention how pretty it is?
