The Sony Cybershot DSC H70 is aimed at someone that is looking for a compact digital camera offering a bit of extra quality over and above a standard point and shoot digital camera. The Cybershot DSC H70 also packs a bit of extra lens power into a small body size. The lens offers 10x zoom and a wide angle capability for squeezing wide scenes into your photos.
Standard features include image stabilisation and a 3 inch LCD screen. The Cybershot DSC H70 is also capable of capturing High Definition movies. One feature that Sony now offers on a number of their digital cameras is a sweep panorama mode. To capture a panoramic shot all you need to do is point the camera, hold down the shutter button and pan the camera round. The Cybershot DSC H70 does the hard part of stitching the scene together in camera.
You should find the Cybershot DSC H70 easy enough to use. Sony have built a guide into the camera. This should point you in the right direction and help you to match the features to the requirements for each photo opportunity. If you find digital cameras confusing in general there is also an easy shooting mode to make the whole process easier.
