The T7 is an anorexic supermodel of a camera, but the slim design is married to a lean feature set. The macro and magnifying glass modes and the 30fps VGA movie mode are excellent, but it lags behind the competition on user-friendlinessRead more

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T7

Sony's new DSC-T7 model is even smaller than the earlier T-series models and will suit users with delicate fingers, especially left-handers due to the location of most key controls. All buttons are small and some lie almost flush with the camera body. The tiny zoom rocker sticks up just enough to be usable (though not with real precision) but the memory card hatch will challenge the less than dexterous.

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T7, ultra-slim

Sony has today announced the ultra-slim Cyber-shot DSC-T7. This camera is the latest in the T line of ultra-compact digital cameras, the unique feature of this amazing little digital camera is that it is only 14.8 mm / 0.6 in 'thin' (9.8 mm / 0.4 in at the thinnest part). It feels about half the thickness of the recently announced DSC-T33 and is approximately the same size from the front. Sony has achieved this by placing the LCD monitor to the side of the lens assembly (yes, this camera still has a three times optical zoom folded lens). Unlike the recent T models the DSC-T7 has has sliding cover / power switch just like the original DSC-T1. We have some exclusive hands-on images of a darker colored DSC-T7.
