Sony W800 1/2.3" Compact Camera (2014)
Product Gallery
Product Overview
Sony W800 is an entry-level 1/2.3" compact camera. Introduced by Sony in 2014, it comes with a 1/2.3" sensor with 20 MP (5152 x 3864) resolution.
The DSC-W800's 1.0 fps burst rate limits its use for certain types of photography, but it is hardly something that most photographers should worry about.
Last but not least, the camera can focus quite close to the subject.
