Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H5
A pleasing long zoom digicam with above-average performance for both still shots and video.Sony has replaced last year's DSC-H1 long-zoom model with two new cameras, the 7.2-megapixel DSC-H5 and the 6-megapixel DSC-H2. The H5 sits at the top of the range, offering not only higher resolution but a larger LCD and 30 MB of on-board memory. As the built-in memory only holds nine high-resolution shots, you need additional storage in the form of a Memory Stick Duo card (a 1GB card was supplied for our tests).
A solid advanced ultra-zoom from Sony that takes high quality pictures and offers a variety of advanced functions that should please.
This 7MP EVF is reasonably priced and produces high quality images, but its slow autofocus and response time can be maddening.
