Not for (all) W-Series Cameras2008-01-02
I looked at this for my Sony DSC-W80 camera because it is labeled by Amazon as "for the Sony Cybershot W-Series Digital Cameras".

It DOES NOT WORK with the Sony DSC-W80 camera. I suspect it is incompatible with several other cameras in the W-series line as well. So read carefully, and if your camera is not explicitly listed as compatible, ASSUME it is incompatible!
Functional, but not Fantastic2007-08-26
This lens adapter does what it says. It allows the attachment of the lens. But it's somewhat cumbersome to use, and the clear plastic is not exactly a match with the camera. But once attached, it is sturdy and holds well, so for a lens adapter for a digital point and shoot, it's not that bad.
There's a Bright Side2007-05-22
This little piece of equipment is what it is. Sure, it has the limitations described above, but users of this particular camera have no other choice in the matter. Additional lenses require this adaptor. Period. The fact is, this camera, for a point-and-shoot, takes great pictures. Add the potential for telephoto or wide angle shots, and you've got the best point-and-shoot you've ever seen.

Let's be real here. This is no professional product, and isn't intended to be so. Complaints aren't really in order, unless you're trying to push this little camera to do what is best left up to an SLR, etc. It is what is.
Problems2006-12-25
It will adapt and allow you to put on lens, however the are several very serious problems. First of all it blocks part of the built in flash. Meaning if you use both it will leave a huge shadow across you picture. Sony recommends getting the slave flash, however you may wish to see the reviews of the slave flash before getting it also. Second you can't use the AF illuminator. Also you obviously have to use the LCD screen not the viewfinder. Finally it makes it unsteady on a tripod.

Digital cameras are good for the environment
As we consider the digital camera revolution that has taken place over the last decade, most people think about it in terms of enhanced benefits for consumers. We can take a lot more pictures at much lower cost with digital cameras versus film cameras. We can also more easily manipulate and share those photos since they're all in the digital realm. But one thing many people don't think about actually deserves mention as potentially the most profound effect of the digital camera revolution: how digital cameras greatly reduce the destructive impact on the environment compared to film cameras. At first, you might think, "How can that be? My film camera didn't harm the environment!" Even though it wasn't your camera that harmed the environment, your film processing did indeed harm it. Any time you take your pictures to a photo processing center, that film is run through batches of chemicals. These chemicals are environmental hazards, and once they are used to process film, those chem ...
