Camera was damaged
Constantly has a blue line running from top to bottom of screen. I owned this camera before and loved it. This particular one that I bought, was defected.

Sony Cybershot DSC-T1 5MP Digital Camera
A litttle heavy, takes pictures really slow, has a pretty long flash recharge time. so it takes a while for the camera to get ready for your next shot, Battery life is short. Doesnt zoom in as much as other digital cameras do in this category, Try a camera where the lens actually telescopes away from the camera.

Great Camera
I bought this camera 2 years ago and have been GREAT ever since, very slick camera it is small enough to fit in your pocket without bothering you,I take it everywhere I go, the battery lasts enough to take a lot of pictures so no problems about that. LCD screen is big so you can preview your pics. The pictures are crisp clear, vivid colors, the auto mode adapts to every situation possible.
Cons: not all the time but in ocassions i've some red eye pictures.
My guess is you are buying this camera to take it with you and to take pictures at parties with your friends, etc. this is a great camera for that. If you want to take a lot of night scenery pictures then you might want to consider other one.

Remember when Sony products were good and reliable?
I purchased this camera new a few years ago. I paid over 0 when it came out, plus an extended warranty. Despite the lack of red-eye reduction and horrible shutter speed, it's size has allowed me to bring it with me almost anywhere. Tonight though, I pick my camera off the charger, turn it on to take a picture and the lens is no longer working correctly. I have never abused this camera and have kept it in excellent condition, yet it just failed for no reason. I used to buy all sony products in the 90's. You paid a little more but you got quality. This doesn't seem to be the case anymore. I have Discman's that have worked for 10+ years, yet I cannot get 2 out of a digital camera. I checked ebay and this seems to be a common problem. I am never buying a sony product again.

Its my fun camera
I have the Limited Japanese Black Version . As soon as I saw it, I knew that was the camera that I wanted. I love technology, and this struck my eyes and I was impulsive and just got it! I was pulling my hair out reading reviews and just going insane. So I said, you know what, just go for it! And I did. Im very happy with this camera. It does exactly what I need it to do, fit into my back pocket! I can take it anywhere, and it is not bulky like other film cameras or even DSLR's ! There are things about it that make me sad, and wish I bought a different camera. But, you never know if your going to like a camera until you try it out. So, I have had it for abuot 3 years, and for the most part I like it, but I still look at other camera, and, I still buy other camera. Because it is an addiction.

Pro's: great size, very easy to take everywhere, fits in small purse, pockets, jackets, etc. Cool , sleek , stylish, Big LCD screen, bright, easy buttons , user friendly interface, produces up to an 8.5 x 11 print, great quality, sephia and negative color modes are useful and fun, has great accessories, great battery life, great macro feature

con's: red eye reduction does seem to work, flash grabs light and dust with make these weird orb looking circles on pictures, buttons are small, front slide down lense cover doesnt lock, nighttime photos are horrible, unless you carry a tripod around with you 24/7, then you MIGHT get a good photo.. but chances are slim to none!

all in all, its a nice camera to have to take " fun photos " if your on the go, and you just want something small its a good camera.

I would recomend the DSC-T30 , its is a newer edition and they have fixed a lot of the problems that you find with the DSC-T1
