## Questions & Answers

**Q: How is the sound quality?  Steve's Digicams called the mic "terrible".  I have a toddler and want to take videos and capture his silly and cute sounds**
A: Hello.  I have listened to my grandson in the sprinklers in the park on camera playback and I am satisfied with the sound.  One can always buy a audio recorder and record cute sounds separate from video.  My itouch records sound satisfactory.  :)

**Q: Is there image stability with just picture taking besides taking videos. I use mine while on motorcycle and need image stability.**
A: yes, it seems to take a great pic no matter if it's moving, low light, etc

**Q: Does the camera come with a charger and/or ac adapter + cable?**
A: It comes with a cable to connect it to your computer but it doesn't come with an independent battery charger that you can plug into the wall. You have to charge your battery in the camera while the camera itself is plugged in an outlet. You can purchase a non-Sony brand battery charger for cheap.

**Q: Will this camera zoom when you are making videos?**
A: The answer to your question is yes!

## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A great way to get started
*by  on Reviewed in the United States June 11, 2013*

This was my first upgrade as far as cameras are concerned. I am not a photographer by any means, but I was interested in getting a camera that is a step above a simple point and shoot. While I originally looked at digital SLR cameras, I was put off by the price and since I do not have the knowledge base in this area I decided to stay away from them. A staff member at my local electronics retailer showed me this camera and I was very impressed. I purchased it here as the price was better than in the store.This camera takes incredible pictures, at least in my opinion as a typical user and not a professional. I took it to the arboretum to photograph wildlife and flowers the first weekend after I received it. The zoom allows for great pictures from a distance. In fact, I caught a great shot of a hummingbird on approach to a flower from about 15 feet away. The image came out like something from a National Geographic magazine.The camera's operation is simple and intuitive. I found the features that allow for color enhancement to be not only a fun addition but also very easily accessed. The camera's start up time is fast so you can quickly start taking pictures after turning it on, which is a huge difference from my last camera. There is one criticism, but this may be more due to my lack of experience using a Mac than anything else. For some reason I cannot figure out how to watch the high-definition videos on my computer. The camera records them in a format with which I (and apparently my MacBook) are not familiar. I imagine this is a simple fix, so I plan to check the forums online to get some direction. As I said, this is probably due more to my limited knowledge rather than a true problem with the camera itself. I am still experimenting with the other features, so I imagine I may be updating this review as I get more acquainted with the camera. That said, I only expect more positive attributes at this point.Lastly, battery life is worth mentioning. I was skeptical at first but the battery actually lasted longer than anticipated. I have only charged the camera twice since I bought it and I got about four days of heavy use out of it before I had to charge each time. While I expect this to go down with age as most batteries lose their ability to hold a charge over time, I was favorably impressed with the life of the battery. This is particularly impressive since the camera does not have a viewfinder and you must use the screen.Overall, this is a great camera to get your feet wet if you are moving in the direction of taking more artistic photos or just want a solid camera that captures fantastic images. Though the price was on the higher end for me, I have found it to be worth all of what I paid.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small sensor, no exposure or flash adjustments
*by  on Reviewed in the United States July 8, 2014*

Got this for my wife who needed an inexpensive compact pocket camera. I'm very impressed with it's abilities although, as expected, the tiny image sensor limits the maximum picture quality. I wasn't expecting much for this price range but this camera far exceeds other cameras I've tried, at least in its major features. The stabilization works amazingly well. I can take handheld pictures at full optical zoom with no blur. In fact it is so steady I found myself using the camera as a "spotting scope" to get a closer look at wildlife on a recent outing. Since this camera is going to be used mainly by someone with little photography experience I did most of my testing in Enhanced Superior Auto mode. In this mode the camera is taking multiple burst exposures and then averaging them to get the best picture. The results are very acceptable. I found it hard to take a bad picture with it. Focusing is very quick and accurate. MUCH faster than either of my much more expensive Canon cameras! The smart phone camera link is easy to set up and seems to work well for basic camera control. It will NOT download Sony apps which was disappointing.Some negatives - One thing I don't like at all is the lack of any exposure or flash adjustments. I find the flash is too harsh most of the time resulting is slight over exposures. It's very irritating to not be able to correct this. I have read several reviews of this camera stating it has 1080p video. It does not. The video is 1080i (as stated in the specs) which makes a difference. The interlacing is definitely noticeable when viewing video on a big screen TV. As far as the actual picture quality goes - don't expect miracles since the sensor is only 1/2.3". Don't plan on making prints over 4 x 6 inches or viewing at 100% on your TV screen. The fine details are just not there.I'd prefer a good image sensor over more bells and whistles but at this price I guess that's too much to ask. Overall it's a good camera and quickly nails the focusing every time and that's the most important thing for catching pictures of the grandkids!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Long-time Canon user, very impressed with the WX300
*by  on Reviewed in the United States April 30, 2013*

I am a long time Canon user, but I was getting tired of Canon not supporting 1080 HD video in their point-and-shoot cameras. I know that the PowerShot SX280 now supports 1080, but the pre-release reviews I read put the Sony WX300 video ahead of the SX280. And they are right. Video is smooth. Exposure and contract are spot on. Colors are rich but not over-saturated. And the 20X zoom is wonderful. The image-stability does as good a job as you can expect. You can't fault the camera if you have shaky hands at 20X zoom.I bought this to take to Disneyworld instead of my Rebel SLR. The WX300 is incredibly small. The size and weight will be an asset when carrying it around all day. And the 20X zoom will allow me to get the shots and videos I want of the kids on the rides.The user interface is very intuitive, if you have used a camera in the past 10 years. This is nice, because the paper user manual is brief. Sony is saving money by making the full user manual electronic. But, so far, I have not needed it. The menus and on-screen help is wonderful. Sony has done a great job with the user interface on the WX300.The only thing I wish is that the micro-USB charging port was not behind the rubber cover on the right. Since I am not going to buy a separate battery charger, I can see this cover coming off in a couple of years after repeated use. The odd thing is Sony put the lesser used HDMI connection on the bottom, without a cover.The only negative I can find so far is the built-in flash over-exposes indoor shots. This might just be on the built-in LCD, because the photos look a little better on my color calibrated PC monitor. However, the fact the flash is built into the body and not a pop-up is nice. You just need to make sure your right-middle finger is not in the way when pressing the shutterThe shape is VERY rectangular. I am not sure if Sony could have added a little contouring without sacrificing functionality.I have only had the camera for a few day, so I have only had a change to try out the automatic modes. Looking forward to updating this later.I just saw that Sony is coming out with the HX-50V - same sensor but with a 30X zoom lens. Now I am wondering if I should return the WX300 for the HX-50.
