D-Photo and The Photographer's Mail
1 June 2011Small and elegant have long been hallmarks of the Sony Cyber-shot range but the new hero model in the W series makes previous models look positively slovenly. The DCS-WX7 is a waif-like 16.2-megapixel compact small enough to jam anywhere you feel comfortable jamming things, without sacrificing features or quality. The sleek silver chassis houses a 5x optical zoom Carl Zeiss Vario-Tesser lens, a welcome upgrade from previous Cyber-shot models’ Sony G lenses. Read more
- Very compact design, Feature-rich, 3D and HD support

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX7 is a compact 16-megapixel camera with a 5x optical zoom. It's capable of producing great images in good light and acceptable images in low light; its video mode is also impressive. The Cyber-shot DSC-WX7 is significantly slimmer than the and the Canon PowerShot S95. It lacks any of the protrusions of these cameras, making it a little less friendly to hold but easier to fit in a pocket. Read more
- Excellent picture quality at base ISO and minimum zoom, it's noticeably smaller than competitors, 1080i video looks excellent for a compact camera
- The control layout isn't very intuitive, the telephoto end of the lens has a very slow maximum aperture, viewing a photo at full resolution shows excessive noise reduc...

8.0/10Reviewer: Ben, CNET10 July 2011Camera's easy to use, alot of fun options and auto settings, HD video i carnt folt at all for a small camera and somthing new for 3D TV with pitchers. Takes almost perfect low light pitchers even when taking videos in HD. For a 16 megapixle camera you should get some realy nice close up's when zooming in to pitcher for some reason the carmera seems to show fuzzing around small objects when pitchers taken, Like the pic was taken at say 14 megapixel then enlarged to 16...

- The HD video - 3D picter and takes fine pics
- digitel zoom close up in pitcher even on high settings shows fuzzyness that shount be there
