Sony CyberShot DSC-R1 Details

Editors' Comments

Affordable, impressive: the Sony Cybershot DSC-R1 is a great choice for aspiring pros. The Sony CyberShot DSC-R1 is Sony's most compact prosumer camera to date. The camera's sensor provides a live feed for the camera's electronic viewfinder, which eliminates the need for a mirror box, shrinking the overall size of the body. At just under a thousand dollars, the 10.3 megapixel DSC-R1 is a strong contender in an already competitive market.
