The ultra-slim DSC-T77 Cyber-shot(R) Digital Camera. Measuring just over half an inch thin, this 10.1-Megapixel camera features a 3.0" Widescreen LCD that spans almost the entire backside of the camera. You can also compose and review shots, navigate menus and optimize focus using the Touchscreen display. Equipped with Optical SteadyShot(R) Image Stabilization, the DSC-T77 uses a built-in gyro sensor to detect camera shake and automatically shifts the lens to help prevent blur without sacrificing image quality. You’ll also enjoy other photo-enhancing features such as Face Detection and Smile Shutter technologies and the Anti-blink function.
A powerful 10.1-Megapixel 1/2.3" Super HAD(TM) CCD image sensor helps you capture gorgeous images with superb contrast and clarity down to the finest detail. The Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar lens enables close-up shooting up to just 0.4"(1cm) from the subject in Magnifying Glass Mode, while the optical 4x telescopic zoom offers superior visual acuity for a compact digital camera. The BIONZ Imaging Processor delivers the high resolution and fast performance. Face Detection technology detects up to 8 individual faces and controls flash, focus, exposure, and white balance to deliver accurate, natural skin tones with reduced red-eye for beautiful images of family and friends. The Smile Shutter automatically detects and captures a smiling face.

Pros: -Great image quality in good light. Compared to the T70, the T77 is produces better images in good light. The photos are pin sharp and more noticeable are fine details. When I take portraits with the T77, I now see pores and individual eyelashes! -Slimmer and lighter than the T70, the T77 really is a pocketable camera that you’d want to take with you all the time. It’s so unobtrusive I sometimes forget I have it with me! -Dynamic Range Optimizer helps recover shadow details without losing highlights. -A barrage of other features like smile shutter, face detection, anti-blink function, and image stabilization helps make taking pictures more fun.
Cons: -I wished Sony had separate controls for saturation, sharpness, and contrast like all the Canons have. There are times I want to get more saturated colors. While it does have a vivid setting which boosts up the saturation, it also boosts up the contrast which results in harsh-looking photos(most of the time anyway). -I think it’s safe to say that this camera takes better picture in good light. The quality definitely goes down as the light levels go down. I think the problem with such a small sensor and lens is that in lower light levels, the camera compensates by choosing higher ISOs which results in more noise and more noise reduction which produces photos that are less sharp and less detailed.
Some Important Features: Dynamic Range Optimizer Standard and Plus Anti-blink Function Red-eye Correction Convenient Photo Modes MPEG Movie VX Fine Mode Semi-manual focus 9-Point Auto Focus Burst Mode Function Guide Easy Shooting Mode 16:9 High Resolution Mode 15MB internal memory All in all, I really like this camera, and at this small/slim size, I think this is as good as it gets. If you’re looking for the smallest and slimmest camera that takes quality photos, then give the Sony DSC-T77 a try.
