Too bad - too bad - Actually, I've been looking forward really after my old Sony P200 is adopted in the lake that I now perhaps a little hold more technology and performance in his hand. But either I snatched a Monday model or something is wrong with the euphoric reviews. The W300 is so fast that they eigentlcih suitable only for friends of the worm research. Children take pictures or other snapshots you can confidently put the shutter lag has earned its name correctly. Not content - by now 1500 images I can certainly say that the images are only partially sharp and hardly a picture suitable for printing on paper. However, this is something that has made me really angry because this comes to bear only upon close inspection on Bilschirm. Individual portions of the images are always razor sharp, the rest back out of focus, above all to the back edges. Likewise, the gradients a disaster in Flash Mode. Faces are about as good represented by blurring the edges with flash like my first digicam of Plus in 2001. I was a real fan of Sony, despite overpriced Memory Sticks. Now I'm disappointed but turn away and to correct camera (digital SLR) attack because it hurts too much to have to delete louder pictures that really fond memories might have been. Out of frustration I bought on ebay me a DSC-P200 again, so I have at least a small functional companion in reserve. The Old Mill also works perfectly again. W300 is not recommended! Despite good testing.
