We like:
Excellent zoom control; massively tweakable; fold-out screen
We don't like:
Usual Sony proprietary nonsense
CNET.co.uk judgement:
Plentiful features with all manner of adjustable options, entertaining gimmicks and rock-solid shooting make us like this camera a lot. We love the fold-out screen and fantastically delicate zoom control -- if you could stick an SD card slot in there, it'd be one of the best superzooms we've seen. Sadly, it loses marks for the proprietary connections
