The Sony touch

The Sony DSC-TX1 comes in an uber-slim solid metal shell and is one of the sturdiest cameras around. This is a 10.2-MP,4x optical zoom portable camera.

One of the key features of the TXI is the touch screen used for almost all of the features on the camera. The zoom trigger feels poorly designed-it’s too small and has too little travel. The front is protected by a metal sliding panel. The piece we received had some fine scratches from the slider movement.

The screen quality isn’t great. The user interface is basic and easy to use. The lens is placed away away from the corner of the camera, so your finger won’t block the view. The touchscreen is decent, but display a little laggy. It has variable focus points and you even choose which area you want the camera to focus. It even does HD video. Although, it lacks the features and performance, the compact size is something that will appeal to many. It’ll fit into any pocket size, so you can take it anywhere you go. If that’s what you want, the price of Rs. 20,990 should not be an issue.
