This is a great cameraAugust 24, 2008 I purchased this camera a month ago and so far it's been a great purchase. The camera has great focus and the pictures never come out blurry, battery life is quite good and the big LCD is nice for displaying the pictures
$$ you have to spend after you get the camera.August 22, 2008 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
1. You have to buy a smart battery $49. (Was included in previous models but no more!) 2. I bought a "compatible" smart battery and Sony locks it out so you can't use it even in its dumb mode. That is, you are forced to buy their battery. BTW there is case law on this topic Laxmark was barred from creating an incompatibilities so you are forced to buy their product (ink cart.), hope an attorney catches on to this and files a class action. 3. One of the selling points is you can view your images on and HDTV however they fail to tell you that you have to buy the cable, $39.99! What a rip off. 4. To get proper lighting in macro mode they sell you a $99.99 adapter. Just the fact that you can buy this as an accessory tells you they knew about this being an issue and could have designed it into the camera. Cannon designed it into theirs! 5. !!Heres a big one. Device does not power through USB!! All other devices I have run on USB power when you plug them in...NOT SONY. And guess what, they have a solution, you can buy a power adapter for $39.99 6. Another big one!! You can only take 20 pictures! If you want to take more, you must buy a PROPRIETARY PRo Dou memory stick. That stinks... how much? anywhere from $29.99 to $199.99 depending on the size you want. NOT INCLUDED 7. And they don't even include a $14 case with it, you have to buy it too!
BOTTOM LINE...your $400 camera winds up costing you more like $700. or more these are just the things I found out after having it only 1 hour.
Note from what I read in other reviews this issue is really pissing off a lot of other people too. I'm returning my camera and going to get a Cannon.

It is an excellent camera. It deserve a 5 stars but it only have 15M internal memory and T2 has 4G. It is a turn off... big one...
It Zooms While Video-ing!!August 13, 2008 I purchased the T300 after my T90 was stolen. I LOVE it. One of the features it has that similar cameras don't have (among many) is the ability to zoom while taking videos. It also has face/smile detection and some other really neat features. The amount of time from pushing the button to taking the picture is almost nothing - virtually no lag time.
The reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because it is not as user-friendly as the other Sony T models - everything is through the touch screen and not on knobs on the outside of the camera, but I assume that's because there are so many features they had to do it that way.
I purchased an 8GB memory stick duo for a little over $[...] after rebate from big retail electronics store. I'll probably never need 8GBs, but just in case, and it was a great deal.
I will probably buy an extra battery in the near future. I haven't needed it yet, but from reading other reviews, and also so i won't be without picture-taking ability, it just makes sense.
Super sony cybershot !August 2, 2008 I bought this camera to supplement my 3 year old Nikon Coolpix. The Nikon lens system is fantastic in daylight but I got poor indoor shots(? flash poor)with bright bluish subjects but blackened background). I initially tried the Olympus stylus 1010 10.1 Megapixel (about 250 US Dollars), Olympus stylus 1030 10.1 megapixel (about 399 US Dolars)and canon SD 1100 8 MPixel(about 250 US Dollars).
I actually bought and returned the 2 250 dollar cameras and later tried the more expensive olympus in Best buy. The sony T300($ 369)was far more superior, the Carl zeiss lens is really distortion free. On the olympus there was a lot of distortion at the edges with blurring . On the canon the outdoor shots were fine and the indoor shots loooked good on the camera screen but were very pixely(grainy)when viewed on the computer.
First of all the sony looks sexy ( I bought the red). I tried different settings and most work as predicted.Color representation is accurate. Macro auto feature is good. The smile maker, where it makes straightfaced subjects appear smiling was cool, the kids thought it was awesome. The sony does quite well indoors and there is a setting(easy) where you let the camera do the thinking which gave the best shots.I was doing indoor shots at dusk with very little natural light and candle light which turned out awesome.The touch screen is a cool feature and it works well(some early reviews said it was not sensitive and had to be presssed hard, I did not have that experience )although the menu asks you to confirm your choices way too many times. It however grows on you Overall good camera, cons are- no viewfinder, works only with sony produo memory. This is a review from an amateur (however intelligent) , the tech gurus dissed this camera on cnet and other sites,please see their reviews for more technical data as to why they did not like it. For most regular uses I think this camera will be more than adequate.
