Sony DSC-H1 Preview

Sony Cyber-shot® DSC-H1 Digital Camera

The DSC-H1 by Sony is a 5.1 Megapixel Super HAD™ CCD digital camera with a 12 times optical zoom lens due to hit the market in June of this year at the price around $500. It has been a long time since I have gotten excited about a new digital camera. I do like Sony products. I have 2 Sony digital cameras (P1 and P8) that capture beautiful images without breaking my bank. I have been searching and waiting for a camera like the H1 for quite some time now. It is about time! I have tried other cameras with more manual controls and better lenses, but I always wanted more optical zoom. Sure, there are many SLR digital cameras out there, but they cost an arm and a leg. The H1 seems to be a perfect upgrade for hobbyists like me. The new DSC-H1 is the number one item on my wish list for the year.
