Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W230 prices and specs
The Cyber-shot DSC-W230 was released on Feb 17, 2009 and is available in USA for $109.00
The Cyber-shot DSC-W230 belongs to the category of point and shoot cameras. Its main benefit is a very small size: the photographer can even put it in the pocket. The camera has various automatic modes but you won't take photos of the same high quality in comparison to large sensor compact cameras.
The Cyber-shot DSC-W230 can make pictures at 12 megapixels highest resolution. But if you want to get better picture quality the more important thing is a sensor size. The Cyber-shot DSC-W230 has a 1/2.3' (6.17 x 4.55 mm) sensor which means that the model will produce pictures with a lower quality than cameras with larger sensors but instead it has another advantage - the Cyber-shot DSC-W230 is small. But if you want to capture pictures of the professional quality pay attention to Nikon D810.
The camera has max shutter speed of 1/1600 sec. It is not very fast shutter speed but still the photographer will manage to make pictures of moving subjects. The Cyber-shot DSC-W230 can even record videos but the max resolution is not very high - 640 x 480 (30 fps).
The lens is fixed and you won't be able to change it. The lens has 4x optical zoom.
