I am not a professional/amateur photograph nor pretending to be one! (purely recreational) But once in while I enjoy taking some nice pictures. So I decided to replace my old Kodak digital and bought a new Sony Cybershot DSC-T200 – Verdict: Well so far I am very impressed and pleased: 8.1 megapixel, 3.5″ touchscreen (my favourite feature), 5X Optical Zoom, up to 25X Smart Zoom (modest, yet impressive), Face Detection, Smile Shutter Mode (;-) can’t miss one) and SteadyShot Image Stabilization. I’m just starting to master and enjoy its features and different settings.Nice little camera – if you were thinking about it – get one!/sf
