Have always had great luck updating my digital cameras by buying through the Sony Outlet Store and this is no exception. Camera looks and acts like new with most features of the latest models at less cost. Not old technology, just not the newest, but then I not a professional photographer either. Getting excellent results now that I'm learning where the familiar buttons have been moved !

I bought 2 WX9 cameras in the span of less than a year, and both are now broken. The first one I forgot in a cafe, and was thrilled to have it returned to me when I came back a few hours later. Unfortunately, once I turned it on I saw that the internal LCD screen was cracked. I didn't think much of it, figuring that the camera must have been dropped badly in my absence and that it's my own fault for having forgotten it. Since I was happy with the picture quality and only owned the camera for about 3 months at this point, I went back to the store and bought a second one. Now fast forward 3 more months and I was in a lounge with some friends, and the camera fell out of my purse, which was placed on a LOW LOUNGE CHAIR, no more than a foot off the ground. It was really a very short distance to fall, and there was a carpet on the floor. I immediately picked it up and to my great surprise discovered that the internal LCD screen was cracked , rendering it unusable! This time I was there to witness the fall, and I have to tell you- having dropped multiple phones in the past and having owned the previous model of Sony Cyber Shot for over 4 years- that camera should not have been broken after that fall. I am very disappointed. I was pleased with the picture quality, but I really don't expect my cameras to break quite as easily as that. So unless you expect to NEVER EVER DROP YOUR CAMERA, not even from a distance of a foot off the ground, don't buy this model. I think there must be some sort of a design flaw. My previous Sony camera (don't remember the model number, but it was also a Cyber Shot) lasted way over 4 years and I didn't experience any issues like that.

I have always been happy with Sony cameras due to the clear photographs, detail and bright colors.

As a professional photographer I always have a small camera with me...aka Lumix, iPhone, Olympus Pen when not doing a shoot or commissioned job. This tiny jewel has allot going for it. If you know how to use it. It can capture fairly fine images with natural colors(slight red push) with fair amount of detail up to 8x10. Pixel peeping will show its weakness of course. At 16mp, for sure they crammed IMO a bit too many photo-sites on this small sensor, but did a good job with high ISO noise. Very fast focus, not much shutter lag. Start up is with the best? The modes all do as they say if you use them properly. Sweep mode does a great job and it is way more convenient than stitching. I wish it had some manual controls, but I can use exposure compensation when needed. Noise is fairly well controlled and the 10 frames per second rocks. Ok, the video is superb for such a small inexpensive camera. Bottom line is this is a great camera for the price, has the abilities to be fun, is well designed, IQ is decent and has excellent low light capabilities even with video. Well worth the price! Sony has come a long way since the purchase of Konica-Minolta and getting into the serious side of photography. The WX9 has allot going for it and is a very fun little camera to play with. The feature set is perfect for the novice and the image quality is well capable. You can't go wrong.

This camera is for my casual use when not using my DSLR. It's a great value and produces crisp, clear images with excellent color. Its easy to use and for those concerned, uses SD cards for media. Excellent video as well. Got it for Christmas and took it to the Grand Canyon and got some great images - including panoramas. This is a great little camera, especially for the cost. I recommend it for anyone.

Worst camera I have had in forty years. Battery is fully charged, take 4 or 5 photos. Try to use the camera 7-20 days later and the battery is dead. Don't buy this camera, what a waste of money and aggravation

I bought a Nikon Coolpix s3100 had it for one week pictures were ok but HD video was very bad. The camera was very delicate I was afraid to handle it because it felt like some of the buttons and access covers would break. I returned it paid a few dollars more and got the WX9 simply a great little go everywhere camera with real HD video.

I expected the Sony WX9 to take quality photos. The photos I've had developed are very poor quality. Images were fuzzy not sharp, colors washed out and indoor (daylight) pictures taken without flash are so dark you can't see faces. The menu wheel is too small. Every time I try to use it, the flash setting comes on. This is my 5th Sony point and shoot camera and will be the last. I had narrowed my purchase to the WX9 and the Canon elph 310hs and sadly chose the wrong one.
