Sony Cyber-Shot DSC-T33 Digital camera

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T33 is the follow-up to the Cyber-shot DSC-T1. The T33 doesn't change very much from the T1, aside from its refined body design and new "hybrid" LCD. The Sony T33 is still a full-featured digital camera, with a 5 megapixel CCD, a 3x optical zoom lens, a huge 2.5-inch LCD screen, and a full complement of options such as variable ISO settings, color saturation, contrast, and sharpness adjustments.

The DSC-T33 is a sleeker version of the old DSC-T1, with the biggest changes found on the front of the camera. The Sony DSC-T33's user interface is straightforward, and is very similar to those we've seen on earlier Cyber-shot models. The DSC-T33 is very much a point-and-shoot camera. The animated LCD displays have the same basic options and characteristic Sony labeling, but with a slightly updated layout that's still straightforward and simple to navigate.

The DSC-T33 shows good image quality with good color, and high resolution., the 2.7" screen helps in bright outdoor light, The T33 starts up quickly, focuses quickly (even in low light), there's no shutter lag, and shot-to-shot speeds are superb.The Sony T33 uses a custom rechargeable Li-ion battery for power. The camera offers Precision digital zoom and Smart Zoom.
