I bought the camera have had it for two weeks and can’t possibly get rid of it soon enough. Any time lighting isn’t “perfect” it has a mini heart attack and the result is severely disappointing shots.
In low lighting if someone is wearing a white shirt or if there is any kind of off balance in lighting, or backlighting the picture comes out completely off balanced. White t-shirts glow and the glow overpowers your subject, whereas lighting or light coloured objects result in bright, distracting points within your picture.
In daylight you MUST have the sun to your back or else your subject, or object has what I like to call “jesus effect” (white glow around them).
As well unless you like scratches and little dents you must get a case as the from outer casing is very fragile.

Another important point…you need to buy a sony memory card in order to take any more than 5 shots. And no I don’t mean an SD card, I mean a Sony-made card.

I love this phone, or T900 for that matter. The only downside is the memory card. I hate the Sony memory stick format. If only they could use SD card instead and I would jump onto it without hesitation.

I bought the camera and tested it indoor and outdoor. The outdoor movies were fantastic especially with well-lighten scene. The same thing apply to photoes

These little cameras are fantastic.  Though at first one misses the P, T, A, and M settings that an experienced photographer depends upon, there are enough settings and the camera’s behavior is sufficiently predictable with each one that, with experience, almost every picture will satisfy.  In particular, the spot metering allows one to set exposure in a very effective, interactive manner. The convenience of a camera this capable (better than most 35mm) in a form-factor this convenient, cannot be under-estimated.  Mine goes with me literally every where and I have taken thousands of successful pictures with it.

I have a T-500 that I use mainly to shoot HD video. Would the T-90 or T-900 be a worthwhile upgrade regarding video quality ? From the specs, nothing seems to indicate this but I still wonder. Did Sony incorporate the Bionz engine in these models ? The T-500 does not have it.

I’ve had the dsc t5 for many years, and it’s been a great “pocket” camera…  I think I’ll pick this new t90 up and see how it works…. Every photographer should have 2 cameras, a cheap quick point and shoot and an expensive pro cam.

I’m not liking the photo quality. I ve had the T90 for almost a month now. Same result..Its good if you plan on taking and printing out those 4x6 photos..but enlarged photos have a lot of noise and softness.  Im not too happy with the camera..the t 77 seems to have more crisp pictures.
