Sony Announces Cyber-Shot S800

"Weighing just 185g (without battery and media), the beautifully compact S800 stands out from the crowd thanks to its sleek lines and luxurious all-metal body. It’s also incredibly easy to use, even if you’ve never picked up a digital camera before. Pulling you closer to the action, the 6x optical zoom lens offers the highest magnification ever from a compact Cyber-shot model – boosted further still to 12x with digital zoom. In macro mode it’s possible to focus right down to 2cm for fantastic close-up views of any subject. The powerful 6x zoom lens is naturally complemented by excellent imaging capabilities. Experienced photographers will value the 8.1 effective megapixel resolution 1/1.8-inch Super HAD CCD sensor for crisp, clear images that still look great even when enlarged to A4 sized prints. Novices and photo experts alike will also appreciate the camera’s high sensitivity that makes it easier to grab blur-free images with fast-moving subjects or when shooting in low light without flash."



6x zoom? Nice. :) Also, with an exceptionally high resolution of 230K dots, we can expect superb contrast and accurate color reproductions. But what I liked most about this camera (well other than the other normal Cyber-shot features which I already liked) is the NiMH AA battery pack which allows a generous 390 shots between charges.
