    Sony Cyber-shot DSCW55

    I've just ordered one of these. It looked good (to me at least), but I think I should have got some opinions.

    (I didn't order it from play though)

    So.........is it any good?

    Shouldn't you have asked that before ordering?

    I like Sony CyberShots. I have an old P10 and my dad has a P200. For simple point and shoot they are well make, decent optics, decent sensors, reliable and easy to use. You can get more feature rich cameras from other manufacturers, but i had no second thoughts of recomending the P200 to my dad last year. He isn't a ludite (mechanical engineer for the past 30 years) but does get confused easily by some technology, and he can handle it fine

    Well I've got the camera and it seems quite good.

    My memory card wouldn't work in it, but it has been sitting in my wallet for 6months. Hopefully I can get my other mem card to work today.
