Title: Sony DSC-F828

Pros: The terrific Zeiss lens the excellent manual zoom and the super resolution, “film-like� pictures. The solid all-metal build speaks quality of design and construction.

Cons: Ergonomics (a personal matter) and the electronic viewfinder. The price is high by comparison with other cameras in its class.

Summary: SONY's DSC F828 set some new standards for digital still cameras when it was released in early 2004. It was the first of the pseudo SLR cameras with the Sony 8 megapixel sensor, a 7x Zeiss zoom lens that ranges from 28 to 200mm in 35mm equivalents. The fo
