Sony DSC-W330 14.1MP Digital Camera, Blue

I never write reviews for ordered products, however I feel it is necessary. I adore the Sony DSC-W570! It was exactly what I expected it to be. The pictures are beautiful and the quality is amazing! There so many different photography options and images come out beautifully when using flash (including in low lighting). My only complaint would be that the item condition was listed as “Very Good” and when it arrived it had some pretty noticeable scratches and one small dent on the corner nearest to the battery and SD card slot. Otherwise, I am very happy with my purchase and I highly recommend this camera if you’re looking for a good Point & Shoot camera. (P.S. I’m currently using the San Disk 32GB SDHC card and it stores up to 10,000 pictures. I would recommend getting that as well if you’re going to be taking a lot of pictures before transferring them to a computer or memory card).

We had a Sony camera for several years that finally gave up the ghost, and thought this model would make a good replacement. Unlike the prior model, it offers virtually no user control. Worst of all, there is a considerable delay between pushing the shutter button and the picture being taken, resulting in lots of lost shots. There’s apparently no way to adjust for bright backgrounds, so beach and snow shots are not really possible. Pictures come out dark, and due to the delay, often blurred. We bought one for our son and his wife, and the same issues show up in their photos. The display is good though…..

Actually I never even used the thing. Here in Kandahar, there are precisely 1 billion TCNs. If you’re not familiar with the term, TCN stands for third country national. They aren’t from NATO or ISAF nations, and aren’t citizens of the host nation. Anyway, I digress..

Whomever told the TCNs about Amazon deserves a swift karate chop in the throat because these dudes will come up to you day and night asking you to order stuff. It will be weird stuff that will have no apparent effect on their quality of life back home, but they MUST have the stuff for whatever reason. That said, it isn’t easy telling the poor buggers no, so I end up spending a small truckload of money on this site each month.

This camera is a prime example. The dude we’re talking about in this case comes from a place where, I imagine, indoor plumbing probably doesn’t exist yet, electricity may or may not be present, and his 25 kids most likely don’t wear shoes.

Who needs any of that when you’ve got a sweet new camera?? Now you can take photos of all the poverty and squalor and upload them to your favorite social networking site! Yay! Assuming first, of course, you hit somebody else up to order you a laptop, then you bothered another 4 guys for all the accessories, peripherals, carrying cases, etc. Once all those bases are covered, and you find a dialup connection somewhere in the village, you’ll be living the TCN dream.

I really would’ve liked to try this camera out, but at the end of the month when I see my credit card bill, I can’t bring myself to spend money on the things I want. That’s about the end of my rant I suppose. If you ever meet a TCN, thank him for keeping the US Postal Service alive, and ask if you can see his s***ty pictures. You get 10 extra points if he’s wearing a US Polo Assn watch also ordered from Amazon. Out.

yes best for the price and i get it in few days
