I want a digital camera for christmas that costs less than $200. I’m thinking about getting the sony cybershot. Does it take video? Is there a different camera I can get that takes video? please list features of camera. Thanx

I have a lot of usb cords, but it looks like I need to get one specifically for this camera. Any help would be appreciated.

It apparently comes with special effects: b+w, sephia .. etc…
But i don’t know where they are on the camera + the manual doesn’t say how to get onto them either.
Any ideas anyone ?

So is there a website or a store that I can buy another battery?
I have a Sony-CyberShot 8.1 MegaPixels

The display now flickers with horizontal lines and it will vary with lighting conditions. The resulting photo is not right after the photo is taken so I know it is just not the screen that is problematic, it continues onto the resulting photo. It is probably some kind of lighting sensor I am guessing. What do you guys think?

but when I press play, nothing happens.
I really need this video to work, it’s very important.
Does anybody know what the problem could be?

I read that it has 3x but something else said that it has 12x total zoom! Which is it?

My camera has 3 flashes on every flash option I have. Is there some way I can reduce it to 1 flash? My friends hate my camera because it blinds them when they take a picture.

The two models I am most interested in right now are the SD1100IS and the SD770IS. I want to be able to record videos with alright audio. Are these two good choices for small pocket cameras?
The best deal I found on the 1100 is about $150, and the 770 at $165.
Which is the better deal?

I notice the picture quality is and clarity is lost (especialy in the background) as jpegs and the photos that looked really great on my camera screen look just so/so once uploaded. I hate jpgs!
