Just got a new camera, the Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-WX7 which has full HD video recording. I am rather elated when the camera supports 1080p recording as the previous Panasonic camera I had can only support 640p which the video quality isn't great at all. It comes with a 8GB SD card with a NP-BN1 battery. Battery life is not so good when taking continuous HD videos. It can take up to 30 mins non-stop recording before it runs flat. It gets quite hot when excessive usage. However, it has great noise-cancellation function and works pretty well under noisy conditions. Video quality is quite awesome but of course, not comparable to DSLRs. Its selling point is definitely the 25mm wide-angle lens. I loved the lens as I can place the camera very close to an object, but it still seem very far away from the camera. It also has 3D video capture capability, but I rarely use it. In a nutshell, this camera is suitable for travellers who wants it to be portable and light, and especially its easy-to-use functionality. Here are some photos taken using the camera. Expand the photos for clarity.
