Sony Cybershot H9 Details
Editors' Comments
The Sony Cybershot H9 is a solid follow-up to the immensely popular H5 extended zoom camera. Joining the Olympus SP-550UZ, the H9 pushes beyond the 12x threshold with an amazing 15x optical zoom. Super Steady Shot image stabilization makes sure that your photos won't be blurry or otherwise affected when you take long-distance shots, and the camera even features "Night Shot" mode, for taking photos in complete darkness. The H9 is an appealing camera with a sterling pedigree, and we're very excited to see a new edition to Sony's superlative extended zoom line. Consumers may want to consider the Sony H7, which is essentially the same camera, although with a smaller, 2.5-inch LCD screen.
