features
price
and performance
top panel is also fairly smooth
small macro area with good detail and high resolution
darn good for an ultracompact snapshot camera
solid and well-built
make it easy to shoot compelling lifestyle images
simply looked good and much more than acceptable for the vast majority of photographers
Colors were quite realistic with no over-saturation or sharpness

Hair Noise suppression tends to blur detail in areas of subtle contrast
Noise suppression is visible in both shadows and highlights as well
flash illumination is uneven up close
Format Music will erase all music files
Hue changes as you travel around the center
sluggish low-light performance and relatively unsaturated colors
no Memory Stick Duo card
it can accidentally open while in your pocket or bag and drain the battery
inadequate Picture Package software CD ROM
point-eight figure is a bit misleading
no mode dial so you have to go into the menu system
the lens does not have to extend from the body of the camera
The output of the background music was rather tinny -
lack of manual control frustrating
a tendency to overexpose at the cost of longer shutter speeds
all constrained by a lack of manual controls

You'd think there wouldn't be much more to say about Sony's DSC-T9 other than that it's light, thin, takes decent pics and sells for about $450.

Despite housing a 3x optical zoom and a 6-megapixel CCD, the Sony T9 has the height and width dimensions of a credit card. It's only 20mm deep, too, making it perfect for slipping into a pocket. The lens

Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T9

Sony has today announced the newest addition to its slimline T range in the shape of the six million pixel Cyber-shot T9. As well as offering one million more pixels than the T7, the previous incarnation, it also offers a better macro mode of 1cm. The T9 maintains the large 2.5-inch LCD in favor of a viewfinder, has the same sliding up/down lens, but all the controls have been shifted on to the right hand side of the back plate, including the zoom rocker lever which was previously found on the top of the camera. The Sony Cyber-shot T9 comes in silver or black. Apologies but we have no further information as we have not received full specifications or a press release from Sony.
