Sony Cybershot DSC F828 8 to 10 Megapixel user reviews : 4.1 out of 5 - 19 reviews - photographyreview.com
[ia] Sony's Cybershot DSC-F828 has similar 'SLR-like' styling to the DSC-F717 but is larger, weighs roughly 250 grams more and its 28-200mm (equivalent) Carl Zeiss T* lens is better integrated into the body, making the camera more comfortable to operate. The lens barrel can be tilted up through 70 degrees and down to 30 degrees and has rings for zooming and focusing. The mode dial carries P, A, S, M and full auto positions, movie and playback modes, plus a scene setting covering landscape, portrait, twilight and twilight portrait shots. Three AF settings are provided: multi-point, centre AF, and flexible spot AF, selected via the joystick multi-selector. Sony's NightShot and NightFraming modes are included, the former delivering a grainy monochrome image captured in infrared light and the latter using the hologram emitter to provide a range for the focusing system and flash.
The Cybershot DSC-F828 was announced on 15th August, this new camera is very obviously a development of the DSC-F717 design. Just under a year since the F717 and Sony's flagship prosumer digital camera has certainly undergone a large number of changes, not least of which is the switch from the electronically zoomed five times lens of the F707/F717 to an all new mechanical zoom seven times lens with Carl Zeiss T* coating and a wide angle 28 mm equiv. capability. Sony has also chosen to go with their latest sensor, the all new eight megapixel four-color (RGBE) 2/3" type (8.8 x 6.6 mm) CCD. Ignoring all other changes this makes a formidable combination, a high quality mechanically linked zoom lens combined with the resolution of an eight megapixel CCD. This camera is arguably the most important prosumer digital camera this year.

Detailed review of Sony Cyber-shot DSC-F828, with actual sample images, and a detailed data sheet.
Professional build quality, a fast 7X optical zoom and support for both Memory Stick Pro and CompactFlash II cards place the DSC F828 squarely in the semi-professional category.
