## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Awesome camera for the price.
*by M***K on July 15, 2009*

I have take several pictures with this camera and the pictures are simply amazing. The video recorder works excellent as well.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Sony Cybershot DSC-S980 Digatil Camera
*by C***I on January 27, 2010*

This is our third digatil camera, and the best. It is easy to use and takes excellent pictures. The battery life is excellent,used it in cold weather and it holds up well. It is small enough to carry in your pocket with a large viewing screen. It is 6 months old now and it's being used on a regular basis unlike some previous cameras we owned that were to hard to use.

### ⭐⭐⭐ Great Photos - HORRIBLE VIDEO!!!
*by H***D on October 18, 2010*

The camera is fantastic ... as far as still photos go. As far as video ... don't waste your money. Terribly pixilated video, and the sound quality is way off. I'm so disappointed in the lack of video quality in this camera that I can't even put it into words. Being able to take video was a huge part of the reason I bought it in the first place, and it ruined memories of at least one vacation for us so far, because we had taken mostly video with it instead of still shots. (We didn't know about the quality problem then.) I LOVED my last Sony Cybershot (which is why I bought the newer model), and it took AMAZING video, even though it was only a 3.1 megapixel camera. This 12.1 megapixel camera may take great photos, but it also takes the worst video I've ever seen.
