Sony DSCWX350 Digital Compact Camera with Wi-Fi and NFC (18.2 MP, 20x Optical Zoom) - Black

Product Information

Sony WX350 has a score of 54 for Street Photography which makes it an AVERAGE candidate for this type of photography. The Fujifilm XF 23mm F2 R WR delivers a 35mm full-frame equivalent field of view and stands out due to its small size and weather-resistant build.

The difference isn’t huge, and the SX600 HS is bigger and heavier, so the WX350 lets you have your cake and eat it – a longer zoom in a smaller, lighter body.The seven settings between ISO80 and ISO3200 are available in single-shot mode, or you can activate the Multi Frame NR feature to capture images comprised of multiple consecutive exposures at up to ISO12800.

The latter has two speed setting, so twist a little to make subtle focal length tweaks, or give it the full yank to zoom at speed. I have used for a few days the previous model (WX300) which cs with a very beautiful leather case too. Although there’s no manual shutter speed control on the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX350, it does feature a Night Scene mode that’ll hold the shutter open and keep the sensor sensitivity low to maximise light input without producing significant image noise. What’s impressive is that fine detail like distant foliage in landscape shots isn’t subject to the painterly smearing effect often produced by cameras with this sensor size thanks to their overzealous noise reduction processing. Although this is the type of camera that you'll often use in fully automatic mode, if you do want to take control of certain settings, it's not the quickest.Low-light mode is pretty ok for a camera of this class, it does the job perfectly well for taking the impression, however details are being washed out. So, all told the WX350 isn’t a compact that’s likely to delight enthusiasts or those looking for a camera they can control, but that isn’t really who it’s aimed at. Speed - We took a number of shots to test the camera's responsiveness, from switch on to first photo, shot to shot, focusing speed etc. To set this up you’ve first got to connect the camera to your computer with a USB cable and register it.
