Higher megapixels gives you more detail and definition for large prints and cropping in on your subject. Sony’s advanced Super HAD (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise.
High Sensitivity Mode
A new High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 1000) allows you to shoot with great results in low-light conditions -- and Sony’s original Clear RAW NR™ (Noise Reduction) image processing technology helps suppress the color noise that can accompany high-sensitivity shooting.
Sony's Smart Zoom feature lets you magnify your subject beyond the 3x optical zoom - to 3.6x (5MP), 4.5x (3MP), even 14x (VGA). By intelligently cropping into the central portion of the scene, it avoids the image distortion of other digital zooms.
User-friendly controls and simple on-screen Function Guide text/icon display help you set up camera functions -- and you’ll have greater creative freedom to adjust color mode including “Natural” for subtle colors and “Rich” for more intense colors), sensitivity, brightness and image size.
Stamina® Battery Power
With its powerful Lithium Ion rechargeable battery, the DSC-W70 can capture up to 3602 images -- enough for a week of shooting. The compact BC-CSG Battery Charger is also supplied for battery recharging on the go.
Memory Stick Duo™ Media
The DSC-W70 has a built-in slot for optional Memory Stick Duo™ or higher-capacity Memory Stick PRO Duo™ media -- the ultra compact media for shooting, storing and sharing your photo images.
Large 2.5"1 LCD Screen
The DSC-W70 has a bright 2.5” LCD screen for setting up and viewing images -- with a one touch “ Play” button that makes it quick and easy to view your photos.
Carl Zeiss® 3X Optical/2X Digital Zoom/6X Total Zoom
3X Optical Zoom helps the DSC-W70 bring distant subjects closer and lets you frame shots for better composition; Sony’s precision 2X Digital Zoom provides an additional 2X magnification to zoom in close without jagged edges.
Capture Images In-Camera
With 58 MB Internal Memory, the DSC-W70 allows you to shoot without a flash memory card -- then transfer your images to optional Memory Stick™ Duo media, upload to your computer or make prints on your digital printer.

Nice camera
Pros: Macro mode, Night Shots, Picture Quality
Cons: None :)
I love this camera. I received it as a gift from my wife's uncle. This is just awesome. Have used it for 2 years and haven't had any complaints. Camera operation is very easy and buttons and dials are user friendly. Sleek design and excellent battery life makes this a perfect choice for travel photography. Overall I will recommend this camera to my friends who are looking for a beginner level or near pro-type photography.
