Sony Cyber-Shot TX5 & H55 Digital Cameras Announced

The last time we had a look at the Cyber-Shot camera range was just about this time last year when Sony were expanding the Cybershot digital camera range for 2009, and now Sony have added two more cameras to the already extensive range in the form of the multi-purpose H55 and the omni-weather TX5.

Firstly we’ll look at the Cyber-Shot TX5 which is not only the first waterproof Cyber-Shot camera but also claims to be the world’s smallest and thinnest waterproof digital still camera out there, which is no mean feat but also not that surprising considering that it’s only 17.1 mm thick and weighs in at only 128g.

Obviously the main selling point of the TX5 is how durable it is: as well as being waterproof up to 3m in depth (which means not only will it survive splashes and spilt tea, but also drops into water and underwater photography) it’s also dust-proof, shock-proof and interestingly freeze-proof which means it should be able to survive anything a normal person would put it through.

Sony CyberShot Digital Camera Range Expands…Again!

If I didn’t know any better I’d think that the Sony’s CyberShot department haven’t heard of the recession we are in – I’ve been away for two days and in that time Sony have managed to add five more digital cameras to their already expansive range.

Attempting to muscle their way into an increasingly saturated digital camera market is the CyberShot H20, S930, W270, T900 and the T90 all of which were released yesterday by Sony, and we thought we should have a look at these new additions and what they have to offer the market.
