Customer Review: Don’t believe the myths!
I’ve had this for over a year now, using it many times over the period having bought it to use on our 10th wedding anniversary in Kenya with safari followed by the beach resort. The camera is good, with MANY excellent features, having upgraded to digital from my OM2 Spot Program after 20+ years. I read a lot of reviews, some mentioning “Purple Fringing”, well so far I haven’t suffered from that problem albiet it that I mainly shoot at 3 million pixels and not 8 million for emailing purposes, though even that restricts you to 3-4 pictures at a time with broadband. You get what you pay for in life, the serious pro will proberbly go for the Nikon or Canon with a slightly less shutter lag, which lets be fair is annoying when you are used to 35mm instantanious shutter reaction. I have updated the camera / memory cards via the Sony website from ver.1 to ver.2, very easy and I didn’t need to buy any extra cables / units to do it either.
Customer Review: Excellent camera, only minor niggles
I got my 828 just before Christmas 04 and thought I’d use it for a while before writing a review. Before buying it, I agonised long and hard about whether it was the right choice, given all the press about purple fringing, noise at high ISO, manual viewfinder/display switch, etc. However, the upsides finally outweighed these for me, such as the fast Zeiss lens, wide zoom range (starting at 28mm equivalent, rather than 35mm as for some rivals), rotatable body (I use this a LOT) and the dual storage media (I upgraded from a DSC-P71, and had some investment in Memory sticks). Having lived with it for the last ~6 months, I can honestly say that I love it. Despite an initial steep learning curve with all the functions, the flexibility that this gives (once you get to grips with it) really allows much greater creativity than with a point and shoot. The rotating body is fantastic - you can use it like a Hasselblad, as well as over the head in crowds. My memory sticks were the old type (not Pro), and I find that using a 40x CF is much faster, particularly when taking multiple shots. With regard to the niggles, I do see PF in some shots (usually reflections of the sun), although nothing that really impacts on the photo and usually only visible at high magnification). Likewise the noise at >ISO100 is noticeable; use of a tripod to allow lower ISO helps, and I also have used Neat Image to remove excess noise with good results. The manual switch between the viewfinder and the display was initially a pain, but get used to it and it becomes second nature - not a problem. In summary, I have been really pleased with the 828 and the downsides really have not been a problem.

Customer Review: A Great Camera
This Sony camera is perfect for non-professionals. So unless you are Ben and just want to take simple pictures - this camera will be for you. It is simple to use and the 3″ tilting screen is helpful and saves having to get on your knees if you are taking low shots!! The black version is obviously just the same and would save you a little, but silver is the new black which is the new white or something like that?! A great buy, has excellent features and nice high quality res on the photos.
Customer Review: Fantastic camera
