Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX99

The fact that they put the port right next to the tripod mount on the bottom of the camera is a horrible move. Come on Sony, It doesn't allow you to a...

so this would be a very good option. And the viewfinder does help when it does get a bit too right outside you can't see the LCD screen. That's when i...

You know what? I Do think this is worth getting if you are looking for a lightweight travel camera.

I was excited to see what Sony, which has established itself as an industry leader in imaging, would bring to the table with the HX99. It's been a few years since we looked at a model of this type—the last being the HX90V, which we liked at the time, but was held back by a lack of Raw capture support. The HX90V is still on sale, for just a few dollars less than the HX99, and remains a solid alternative if you don't mind missing out on Raw capture

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX99 puts a long zoom into a pocket-friendly body, but shows ugly flare and struggles in dim light.

This was an expensive "pocket" camera, and I was disappointed, sending it back after about a week. First, the so-called instruction "manual" was woefully inadequate, only a small piece of paper with some very basic information, for a rather complicated camera. I imagine if I were more of an engineer...

I have an iPhone 13 Pro. My Canon SX740 broke, so I was looking for a replacement long-zoom compact camera. I wanted to keep this small, convenient, and user-friendly camera with a good user guide! But the Sony night photos often did not focus, even when I set manual focus to infinity. The Sony does...

I have been disappointed with the picture quality although the dozens of reviews say it's great even though it has a small sensor. There is a lot to learn and I get frustrated. I have to find out why I cannot get a very good close-up of a butterfly when I'm standing near it, and when I had the pop-u...

I'm happy with the cam. The thing is extremely easy to take with you. The problem is that the stabilization is very lacking. You can get blurry photos even at half zoom. Let alone full 720mm. 3/4 times the photo won't be usable. They should try to fix this. The zoom is the main selling point and you...

I'm not sure if it's just because I'm used to using big DSLR cameras or if this thing is just too small for my long-fingered hands. It was uncomfortable to use, and the viewfinder was difficult to get used to. Very disappointed with the ease of use with this camera.
