Отзывы о Цифровой Фотоаппарат Sony CyberShot DSC-W830

♦ Brief ♦The W830 is within Sony's "budget" range of compact cameras and is available for a fairly low price, but sacrifices a lot of extra features the more "premium" cameras have, such as WiFi, NFC, extra zoom and better components etc...This camera comes in our different colours (black, silver, purple or pink) and is so compact, it can fit into the palm of my hand. It's also very comfortable camera to hold and is very light in weight.Photo quality is okay, it can take some pretty decent photos but due to its small sensor, quality is going to be limited.♦ Box Contents & Recommended Extras ♦- Box Contents: W830 Digital Camera | Battery | USB Cable | AC Adaptor | Power Cable | Wrist Strap | Instruction Manual.- Recommended Extras: SDHC Memory Card* | Spare Battery.* There's no flash memory(well, enough to take 4 photos), so getting one of these are a must! (You can go for any brand you want, however I would recommend a memory card with no less than 8GB memory capacity & of class 10).♦ Ease of Use & Navigation ♦Personally, I found the camera really easy to navigate around, both externally and internally.There aren't too many buttons located around the camera like you would find on the more advanced cameras.To select which shooting mode you want (photo, panoramic or filming), there is a little slider on the back that allows you to switch between each one.When it comes to different modes within the cameras software, just click the menu button and scroll through. You have four different modes to choose from:Intelligent Auto: "Exposure adjustment with automatic settings".Program Auto: "Auto exposure with adjustable settings".Picture Effect: Choose between the "Toy Camera", "Pop Colour", "Partial Colour" or "Soft High-Key" effects.Scene Selection: 11 different pre-set modes to choose from that will adjust the settings for different scenes, such as "Portrait", "Landscape", "Night Scene", "Beach" & "Snow".Compared to how other cameras handle taking panoramic photos, Sony's cameras makes it really easy to take such photos, you literally press the shutter button and sweep the camera from left to right, which it then stitches them all together for you.Movie mode there are only two settings to select from; "Auto" & "Picture Effect".♦ Photo & Video Quality ♦A higher mega-pixel count in a camera does not mean it's going to have better photo quality compare to a camera that has less mega-pixels, there's more to it; sensor size, lens quality & the imaging processor etc... The more mega-pixels there are, means the larger prints you can get without the loss of image quality, but if you don't have a decent photo then you're just left with having an oversized photo that takes up more space on your memory card (Roughly 7.5MB per photo!).Baring in mind this camera is more towards the budget range, the quality isn't going to be crisp, and unfortunately after dealing with some higher-end cameras, it's made me notice the poorer quality much more than what I would have done so beforehand.So photo quality results I've had whilst using this camera have been a mixed bag, many shots taken have looked pretty sharp, clear and genuinely really good, whereas other times not so much with photos looking blurred and a bit grainy.This camera performs well outdoors in decent lighting; landscapes, portrait or taking photos of flowers came out really well in my opinion, only rarely would I have a random problem with exposure.With the zoom, I had a lot of issues regarding to the focus, on the camera screen I wouldn't think twice, but it's when I have the images on my computer, I notice the images are actually blurred... Ooops, too late for retakes!Low-lighting conditions are a hit or miss with this camera, most photos come out okay, it's only when you start zooming into the photos you'll notice the slight noise that comes with the photo, other times the noise can be apparent straight away, along with the photo not being as sharp as it could.Panoramic images looked great with the image zoomed out to fill the screen on my laptop, but when you zoom in you can tell the quality isn't quite there.Using the 720p setting when filming videos were okay, nothing special but is at a level where it's good for home videos etc... That's about it.If there is one thing I could say that really bothered me, it would be the screen. In-low lighting conditions, the screen can seem fuzzy and there is some very noticeable lag when moving the camera around.♦ Final Opinion ♦The W830 is an okay camera, not the best but certainly not the worst. Its size will be very convenient for people who want a camera that can simply slip into ones pocket, and most of the time can deliver decent snapshots, with the ability to zoom in 8x to get those out of reach subjects.This camera definitely has its ups and downs so I've listed the ones that have stood out to me during my use.✔ Pros:✓ Very compact.✓ Comfortable to hold.✓ Easy to navigate & use.✓ Has the ability to take some decent photo

For a basic snap camera the W830 is fine. Lots of tech features for various shooting modes but within rather limited shooting options and I think this is what the majority of buyers for this type of camera want, also I think the compact size is a strong selling point.Outside on a bright sunny day it works perfectly and the zoom delivers good results. Movies and sound, for very basic shooting, are reasonable. The panorama option I thought was really rather superficial, far too short at a few seconds to do anything creative though maybe useful if you wanted to shoot a room interior or line of people. Nice of Sony to replace the rather ungainly zoom lever on the WX80 with a much more easy to use toggle swwitch on this camera.The downside for me with the W-830 are not the images but a couple of other areas to do with the camera and Sony. The battery/card cover is rather flimsy and could easily be broken accidentally and it takes longer than I would have expected for the camera to get ready for the next shot, no doubt to do with the 20.1 mega pixels. Sony persist in producing dedicated accessories for their products. Here you get a USB cable to connect the camera to a pc for charging or downloading images, this looks like a unique Sony connector cable (it will not even fit the slightly older WX80 camera) so make sure you don't lose it. Of course you can take the card out and download images with a reader but you can't recharge the battery without the Sony cable, even using the mains charger that comes with the camera you still have to use this cable from the charger to the camera.The Instruction Manual is just a concertina sheet of one-side printed paper and only covers the very basics. Fortunately Sony provide a downloadable PDF Manual on their US website.If you want to take straightforward record-of-the-moment shots the W830 is as good as any other compact camera.

I recently bought the Sony DSCW830 as an upgrade from my Sony DSCWX9. My former camera seemed to be having trouble focusing, a lot of pictures were turning out blurry no matter what I did, but it had been a really great camera with lots of cool and helpful features, the panorama feature (about 180 degrees) was awesome, and at 16.2 megapixels the resolution had been top of the line when I bought it.This one, the DSCW830, I thought would be even better. From the summary it seemed to have the same special features, an 8x zoom instead of "just" 5x zoom, and it had better resolution at 20.1 megapixels. Also, the panorama was described as 360 degrees, which I took to mean literally 360 degrees all in one shot.Sadly, even though it's only been a few days since it arrived, I don't like it nearly as much as the first one I had. You have to hold the camera perfectly still or the shot will be blurry. The only way I've been able to get it to take a clear picture is if I set it on a hard surface and push the button, not holding it at all. The panorama feature is not 360 degrees all in one shot - it's 180, like my old one. The menu has fewer features and effects (soft skin, soft background, landscape, night portrait, night scene, low light, gourmet, pets, waterside, snow scene, and fireworks, while my previous camera also had backlight correction, anti-blur, twilight, white balance, metering mode, and face detection). The new DSCW830 is also smaller overall, and even with my small hands I find it harder to handle with the difference in size.If you've never had a really nice camera before, this would probably seem like awesome camera to have, and the simple menu features and ease of use probably makes it a good one to start with. However, I'm going to give the new DSCW830 to my kids to use, and continue using my old DSCWX9 instead. In my case, the DSCW830 just isn't an improvement in any way except more megapixels.

I just bought this little camera for a six month backpacking trip around SE Asia. Seemed like a good product at a reasonable price point in case it was stolen. It worked beautifully (great quality of pics) until today (Day 8) when it suddenly and inexplicably stopped turning on. I've swapped out batteries, memory cards, have read up online for fixes and nothing works. There wasn't a specific incident that led to this, it just stopped working in the middle of the day. I'm backpacking currently and am on a fixed daily budget, so I do not have the money set aside to buy another camera, which is exceptionally disappointing. The quality was good, though, for the week of photos I was able to take and the camera is very basic and easy to use. If you are in the market for a camera for a special occasion or trip, I'd strongly recommend investing in a higher quality product. (Not that it matters in my case....not sure how to file a warranty claim with Sony from an island in Thailand.) :(

If you have a smart phone that takes good pictures (and most do nowadays), this camera is a useless bauble. I freely admit that I am not Ansel Adams. I need a camera to take an adequate shot of places I've been to record a visual diary, as most of us do. For that, a smart phone fits the bill. Nowadays smart phone cameras are so good, I question the need to spend $140 on a little pocket camera like this. If you want to take REALLY good pics, upgrade. Why this?Secondarily, be advised that it has a feature which can be really annoying. I use the self-timer feature a lot, because I need a camera that takes pictures of artwork. For this you mount the camera on a tripod and use the self-timer. On this camera you set the self-timer and it's good for one shot, then defaults back to normal mode. This rendered the camera completely useless for my purposes. Admittedly this is a minor feature for most, but still.....To sum up: not the best of its kind, and its kind has been turfed out by smart phone technology.A waste of money.

I purchased this camera for my daughter & am super upset that it hasn't last more then a month. Along with that, sometimes my flash would be weird when I take the photo, and it wouldn't come out clear at all.I purchased this camera from Best Buy and tested out some other ones like a Canon Powershot, which is only $89.99.... I was AMAZED at the similarities between the two cameras, AND IT DIDN'T BREAK ON ME!Save your $30 and get the Canon... You won't be upset at all! It features all the same capabilities that this Sony does, and it does not have any breakage issues...... You'll be glad you listened to me! Here is the link for the Canon Powershot:http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00AWYN0BU/ref=as_li_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00AWYN0BU&linkCode=as2&tag=thegollif08-20&linkId=AUPA4KAVMOJWIYKN

Bad picture in low light. I prefer the old sony WX80 instead. The Sony DSC W830 do not replace WX80 in the picture quality because the DSC830 has CCD sensor and the old WX80 has CMOS sensor that is much better in low light. If you need a good low light camera go to WX80. The Sony WX80 has FULL HD record crystal clear movies at the highest resolution available with capabilities for 60i in 1080 AVCHD(tm) video and the sony W830 has HD movie only ( 720p MP4 at 30 fps) not FULL HD (1080 60i) movie mode, the sony w830is nice for movies on PC but is not good to see movies in a FULL HD TV set. If you want see movies in Full HD TV set go to the sony WX80 too.

I bought this because of the large sensor size (1") and the speed of the lens. The menus are sometimes difficult to follow if you are not a frequent user of the camera, but I set the dial around the lens for exposure adjustments and it works quite well although I wish it worked faster. What was annoying was that on a $650 camera and what they lost a star on was that they did not give you a .pdf of a real manual. It was just a copy of the onscreen documentation with no index. Really cheesy.

Actually, I expected a much better camera. I download photos to my Mac Book Pro and thought it was going to be easy. Just connect through the cable and that's it. Oh no, there is no cable, Sony is not prepared for. Up until I discovered that my Mac has a port for disks. So I removed the little camera disk (bought separately) and inserted in the port. Then, it was easy.

I'm a professional photographer an I owned two additional Sony cameras (DSLR-350 & 100) and my DSC830 performs as well or sometimes better than my larger cameras. It's lighter to carry and much smaller so I can take with me all the time to capture current events and incidents I see in my daily travels. My enlargements from my DSC830 are just as clear as professional as if they come from my larger cameras.Thank you SonygrhphotosGary R HudsonCorning, California

Just returned from Spain, visited Barcelona, Granada and Sevilla. Saw beautiful architectural monuments and churches. This camera was able to capture the wonderful scenery as well as the close up shots and people just wonderfully. I love the size of it and he light weightiness. I was looking for a camera that is easy to carry and takes beautiful pictures. This one does it all !!

During the holidays, I just wanted a camera that takes great pictures and this unit from Sony seemed to do the trick. Of course, my sisters had to go fiddling with the applications. All in all though, the images that it took were fresh and clear.

As of this month, the best no-lens attached digital camera! Very price competitive- relative to other low quality cameras with the same price tag.

This is my third Sony Cyber shot, I feel like it's NOT made well, but it does take AWESOME pictures.

I have used Sony Cybershot cameras for a lot of years. This particular model is better than the norm with an 8x zoom. The lens is better as well. Being a Ziess.Also you can charge it without removing the battery by USB.For a compact camera that covers all the bases you can't go wrong.

Very easy to use, seems well made, great lens, light weight, very good picture quality and plenty of useful features.

I love this Sony camera.. The quality is superb. This is my second camera from Sony... It is easy to operate and takes beautiful pictures.

The spectacle of this tiny camera is big, when you consider its' tiny size. I bought the camera for its' large 20.1 sensor, but mainly because it boasted a premium Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens. The results are unmistakenly grand.

I love this camera. I recently bought it after my Nikon Coolpix camera broke, and I prefer this one. The images are very clear with amazing detail.

Perfect extra camera especially when travelling with a full dslr. Also less hassle to bring when watching a live concert.

Its a good Camera very light & Easy to use. The Image Quality Is good.I was expecting too much from it.

Great budget pics for the 20MP compact range. Excellent pictures, good value for money. The control and buttons could have been better.

I received it and It was as I expected. Actually a friend of mine asked for it through my account and he loved his camera. Thanks for the good service.
