Mediocre Camera!

( - 6/20/06)

Owned the DSC-P72 about 2 years now and takes pretty good bright daylight pictures, but night time...FORGET IT! Flash does a strobe thing, takes about 5 seconds to capture image after releasing shutter, images at night are always blurry and smeared and this thing eats batteries like no tomorrow! I spend 6 hrs. charging the supplied batteries to have about 15 minutes of shooting image time. Sony, this is RIDICULOUS! My wife has the Kodak EasyShare DX6340 and her battery charge lasts ALL DAY with 300+ images (probably more, never tried).
Well, the DSC-P72 I have is in good shape and takes good video and excellent "bright, daytime" images...damn shame about all the times in between! Sorry Sony.....Canon or Olympus get my business next time. Not impressed at all!
