Sony Cyber-shot DSC-P150 Review
Simon Joinson, September 2004
Announced in July 2004, The DSC-P150 is Sony's latest salvo in the megapixel wars, and the first truly
compact 7 megapixel camera. It's based closely on the current DSC-P100, with the only differences -
resolution aside - being the brushed metal casing. With 7 million pixels and a 3x Carl Zeiss lens
squeezed into a body around 1" thick, the P150 is sure to appeal to those who want to pack a lot of
power into their pocket.
