Sony DSC-W12 Cyber-shot reviews

Reviewed by Mike Maddocks from England on 17th Jan 2006
Bought as first digital camera and very pleased with it. To date mainly use camera on auto setting, sometimes with, sometimes without flash. The resolution (5mp) is fine for my purposes as I mainly print out to 7x5 inches. Shutter response seems quick enough to me, especially for landscapes, natural forms and portraits, and focus, with care, is always sharp. Would like to enhance its capabilities with the Sony zoom and wide-angle lenses but these seem a bit pricey, especially the adapter ring! Can anyone suggest an alternative? I have just discovered that 'Soligor' do, but don't know if the quality would be up to the Sony standard.
