IntroductionOnce the digicam makers had created face detection and smile sensing, we were left wondering what they’d think of next. Sony managed to think up some new tricks for its digicams, which are squarely aimed at consumers who expect advanced fe...
on the SONY DSC-WX1I liked the little Sony WX1 as a take-anywhere and fit-into-just-about-any-pocket, point-and-shoot digicam. The lens is faster and wider than average, and the intelligent auto mode works very well for easy shooting. Low-light perfor...

I really enjoyed using the WX1 and I captured some interesting images with it, but I also found the camera a bit frustrating - it sometimes appears to have been designed by a committee. On the one hand, the WX1 provides a lot of nifty features that we...

The Sony Cybershot WX1 is a 10.1-megapixel point and shoot camera – but it isn’t just another camera with a new model number and more megapixels. The WX1 provides everything that you get in your run-of-the-mill point and shoot camera, but also adds som...

If I had to choose I wouldn't hesitate a second and jump over to the TX1 for its great design and ultra compact size. Granted the TX1 offers slightly less impressive (but not much) photos than the WX1, on other hand it offers an outstanding ratio size performance that will make you forget everything else.
