What's Hot

Sharp pictures, 5x optical zoom with stabilisation, smile shutter is kind of nifty

What's Not

Slow interface, sluggish shot-to-shot time, purple fringing and haloing issues

The Final Word

Sony's Cyber-shot DSC-W150 is a fairly decent compact cameras with a few niggling issues. Aside from some purple fringing it captures good shots. The interface and shot taking can be extremely slow at times, which is frustrating.
