This camera often shuts down or reboots without reason. Despite a red-eye reduction feature, most photos have red eye. It is difficult to get a straight picture (in line with the horizon). I often have to straighten it in post-production. There is a floating artifact that looks like dust or water on the lens (despite being clean). I paid $320 for this camera in October 2007.

Design That Makes a Statement
With ultra-slim body in silver, black, white or pink, the DSC-T70 makes a sleek fit for any lifestyle -- with simplifies camera operation with a 3.0”1 Widescreen touch-panel LCD that replaces function buttons with easy on-screen icons.
The Sony Double Anti-Blur Solution
With Super SteadyShot® optical image stabilization and high sensitivity (ISO 3200), the DSC-T70 compensates for shaky hands, minimizes blur and allows flash-free shooting to preserve the mood -- and Sony Clear RAW™ Noise Reduction reduces the picture noise that can ruin low-light shots.
Simple Icon Setup Controls
To the left and right of the image area on your widescreen display, simple icons allow quick touch-screen operation of essential camera functions. The icons can be switched off to provide a full 16:9 widescreen view of your photos -- and the on-screen Function Guide display helps you learn camera setup operations.
HD Output2
Direct HD output2 to your Sony Bravia® HDVT or other compatible HDTV screen lets you view DSC-T70 still photos in spectacular clarity and detail. Optional HD solutions include a Cyber-shot® cradle/charger with component cable output and high-speed Picture Station™ Photo Printers that make 4” x 6” prints in about 45 seconds (excluding processing time). (Cradle/charger, and printer sold separately.)
HD Slide Show with Music
It’s the high-definition viewing experience that makes photos more entertaining to watch, accompanied by your choice of visual effects and any of four preset musical selections stored in memory or your favorite music downloaded from PC to your camera for use as background music4.
In-Camera Retouching
The DSC-T70 lets you add 8 creative effects to photos after you shoot -- including new “radial blur” effect, “retro” color tint and trimming function along with soft edge filter to soften backgrounds, cross filter to place starry “dazzles” at highlight points, partial color filter to mute surrounding colors, and fish-eye filter to create interesting fish-eye lens effects.
31 MB Internal Memory.
The DSC-T70 allows you to capture a limited number of shots in-camera for later transfer to PC or Memory Stick PRO DUO™ media - so even if you forget your flash memory card, you can still get the shot.
Stamina® Battery Power
The DSC-T70 provides up to 270 shots3 with a fully charged NP-BD1 Lithium Ion battery -- enough shooting capacity to cover a long weekend or a whole vacation.
Carl Zeiss® 3X Optical Zoom Lens Design
An ingenious Carl Zeiss® lens design provides 3X Optical zoom in amazingly compact dimensions -- and even at full zoom the lens doesn’t project beyond the camera body, preserving its ultra-slim styling.
Touch-Screen Operation
The DSC-T70’s Widescreen touch-panel LCD replaces small buttons with simple on-screen icons and a user-friendly interface that make camera operation faster and simpler. You can touch any point on screen, in shooting mode, to focus on the person or object you’ve selected -- and touch and zoom in playback mode to concentrate on your subject.
Smile Shutter Mode
In Smile Shutter Mode, the DSC-T70 helps you capture more smiles by shooting automatically when your subject laughs, smiles, even grins. You select the person to watch and the expression to catch -- your Cyber-shot® camera’s Face Detection system and intelligent Smile Shutter algorithm do the rest!
Wide Zoom Display
To use the entire image area of your DSC-T70 Widescreen LCD and compatible HDTV2 screens, Wide Zoom automatically expands standard 4:3 images to 16:9.
D-Range Optimization
Powered by the exclusive Sony Bionz™ high-speed processing engine, D-Range Optimization preserves image data in bright highlights and reveals more detail in shadows or backlit areas -- for great results even in difficult lighting conditions.
Enhanced Paint Function
In-camera retouching continues with the ability to “paint” decorative borders, graphic stamps and hand-drawn words or symbols like hearts, stars, arrows and other ways to add charm and fun to photos you save, print or send via e-mail (internet connection required).
MPEG Movie VX Fine Mode
Captures VGA (640 x 480) audio/video clips at high frame rate (up to 30 frames per second6), with length limited only by the capacity of your media.
8.1 MP Super HAD™ CCD
More megapixels give you more detail and definition when you make big prints or crop in tight on your subject. The advanced Sony® Super HAD™ (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise.
3.0”1 Widescreen Clear Photo LCD Plus™ Display
A widescreen display in the palm of your hand! Clear Photo LCD Plus™ design enables the giant 3.0”1 Widescreen LCD of the DSC-T70 to display photos with superb clarity and color reproduction -- with AR (anti-reflective) coating for excellent visibility even in bright sunlight.
Face Detection
Because the face makes the photo, Sony has created Face Detection technology that recognizes up to 8 faces in a photo and automatically controls focus, exposure, color and flash to bring out the best in everyone. Unlike some competitive systems, Sony Face Detection makes skin tones look more natural and reduces red-eye with pre-strobe flash.
Multi-Resizing Function
The in-camera feature that resizes your photos for any purpose! Standard 4:3 can be resized to widescreen 16:9 and 2 MP for giant-screen HDTV display2, images at 16:9 and larger than VGA resolution can be resized to 4:3 VGA for e-mailing (internet connection required) to friends and family, and a simple 4-direction touch-screen control makes it easy to trim photos.
9-Point Auto Focus
Because an off-center subject can make your shot more interesting, the DSC-T70 can measure auto-focus precision at 9 points on your screen -- giving you greater creative freedom to compose your image.
In-Camera Red-Eye Reduction
Irritating “glowing eyes” can ruin even the most creative photos -- so the DSC-T70 provides in-camera correction at the touch of a button to reduce lingering red-eye effect that other systems might miss.
Up to 15X Smart Zoom® Feature5
The Sony Smart Zoom® feature lets the DSC-T70 crop in close on the central portion of interest in your photo while avoiding the image degradation of other digital zooms.
Software for Managing Your Memories
Supplied Picture Motion Browser software makes it easier to upload photos, burn photos to CD or DVD, add dates to JPEG images, trim photos for transfer to Memory Stick® media, and organize images in a convenient calendar view on your PC. In combination with an optional GPS Unit7 (sold separately), Map View function can display a map showing the origin of your photos.
