Not for the tech unsavy! [Posted on 2008-07-07]
I purchased this camera after about 2 months of research on every camera out there. I Love this camera, but I only gave it 4 stars for the following reasons:
1. The product manual doesn't really tell you how to use the camera and the tons of functions.
2. The touch screen is incredible. It can get a little overwhelming because one minute you can find a specific setting or function but when you go back to look for it again, you can't.
3. It would be nice if the manual would help out with setting suggestions for taking pics.
4. Many people say that this camera takes bad pics, but I have found that you really need to get to know the settings and flash controls.
5. The software that comes with this is a bit confussing. I was on Kodak easyshare before buying the Sony Cybershot DSC-T70. The Kodak Easyshare software is WWWAAAAYYYY easier for everything. Sony would be smart to look at Kodak's software and make changes to there software.
6. The flash is way too brite. A photographer friend of mine recommended taking a small piece of scotch tape (clear-frosted) and put it over the flash. This made a world of differance!
Overall, this is a fantastic camera! It has taken me a few weeks to get used to the settings, but I'm really glad that I didn't give up. No product out there is going to be perfect and everything is always going to upset someone, but this one is worth the time to get to know. I love that you can edit pics on the camera however, I can't figure out how to edit on the Sony software... One more recommendation, DO NOT use the red eye function. I have had better pics not using this feature than with it.
Touchscreen is not enough to mask bad image quality [Posted on 2008-07-13]
I've owned a sony p-200 point and shoot digicam before this and that camera was amazing.
So I did not hesitate to buy the T70, but I should have.
From the get go when I loaded my first images, at 100% scale on Adobe Photoshop I saw all the grain and imperfection this camera's image qualities host.
Sure the touch screen interface is a great conversation starter and is impressive, but for me I take photo's semi-seriously.
The lack of a manual setting mode is frustrating.
ISO up to 3200 is a joke.
The program feature allows you to reach that, but even at 200 with less than perfect lighting the images come out GRAINY!
Video features are well and you are now allowed to zoom in and out during live recording so thats a plus.
Sleek design and its easy to carry shape is a plus compared to my P-200.
Overall it is a decent camera for everyday images and shooting, I personally like using the HD aspect for my images with this camera but for the level of imagery I am use to and now MUST use, this camera will not do.
I should've returned this camera while I had the chance.

The best camera and the best mark [Posted on 2008-07-24]
The photos are poorly lit with nitida, clear and spectacular widescreen format also is indicated for my LCD TV is a compact camera, thin and incredible, I would buy a thousand times more
Do not buy this camera [Posted on 2008-08-12]
If you want a camera that at least takes some decent quality pictures DO NOT buy Sony Cybershot T70... image quality sucks... I regret I did not go for the Canon IS1100.
