[PhilK1231]

God I hate people from over here who are in the states 10 minutes and they are adopting yank accents.

[arnoldgd84]

Whats the difference between the 2 besides the design?

[canoeshoe]

Finally SDHC compatibility. is this compatible with Class 10 SDHC?

[2010EMAC]

Sony DSCHX5V IS BETTER OR Sony DSCTX7

[ravi930]

@2010EMAC i will recommend the DSCTX7

[happymeinindia]

the sony TX7 for sure

[candylolly447]

i just ordered one. im soo excited :D

[TheNoodlebox]

i heard this camera has a very bad audio is that true??then someone said its how you adjust video setting and also the SD card as well..im thinking of either buying this or canon sx210..what do u think guys?the sweep panorama is a really cool feature tho..

[ravi930]

@TheNoodlebox who said that. the audio is friggin amazing.

[ben150785]

Im confused? You say they are 60i but Sony's website says they are 50i? And also, i thought 60i = 30 FPS not 60?

[analogdigit]

i really hate that you have to buy the more expensive memory stick duo cards in order to shoot videos. now what kind of sony ripoff is that!? that is the only reason I decided to go with the panasonic lumix. I can shoot HD videos using the cheaper sdhc cards as opposed to using the more expensive sony memory you-know-where-to-stick-it duo cards.

[cheekymonkey69er]

@analogdigit

you do realise that the TX7 uses the SD aswell as the mspd right?

[thebrakko]

what is the difference in performance???.....zoom a part

is much more lighter the tx???

what about the tx1???? it costs half price

[genestarwindjf80]

Oh thank you SONY for using SD CARDS.

[ahmad82pkn]

Hi SonyConvergineer ,

I am in Pakistan, Do you know if it will be available in Pakistan as well in early march? if not when ? else i will have to get it via some friend in UK etc

[MOFUZION]

It looks alot like the Panasonic zs3 & tz7 models , I like it.....check out the tz10 on YOUTUBE..thanks

[nickXXXscottie]

Ok...idk if I should get this or the w370.....this one looks really big and the lens is too big for the cameras size, but this uses a Carl Zeiss lens...and the w370 a Sony Lens....is there much difference between the quality of the lens?

[nickXXXscottie]

talking about hx5

[biackdragon555]

i was deciding between the same 2 cameras...the w370 does have a carl zeiss lens as well, but i think ill get this one the hx5, has more features

[whisperingvenus]

let's see if this DSC-HX5V could compete Panny TZ7 .. I'm looking for one that good at low light and good sound (concert situation)

[nero486]

Tolles Teil.

warum gibts keine Kameras in Gold?

[ChrisMac1996]

Alright so does the dsc hx5v also have a touchscreen or no ?

[SonyConvergineer]

No touch screen

[ganbly]

Just hope it has an improved image quality... I own the WX1 and daytime pict are really bad! :( was disappointed... even the 100$ nikons could take + sharp picts on day time...

[mlmx23]

Is the DSC-TX7 compatible with the new Macbook Pro?

[SonyConvergineer]

Of course, all Sony Cybershots are compatible with Mac's.

[Jacestarwind]

I like how Sony added the use of SD cards too

[Luckzzz]

but they runs GOOD while filming hd movies??

it stays slow, isn't it?? why they recommend the use of those diferent cards?

[emrufino]

When is the release date?

Also, can the DSC-HX5V use zoom, while recording?

[Rodrigo2838]

@emrufino

yes, the HX5V optical zoom can be used while taking videos.

[ayokay123]

Not sure, but I think that both of them can.

[biackdragon555]

its set to release in march, they shouldnt tease us like this and make us wait lol..i thought if they were showing it, itd be available, im gonna get the sony w370, i think that's hot

[emrufino]

yeah, i was also thinking to get the w370 or this one. i was searching for test videos for the w370, but i couldnt find any.

[biackdragon555]

i know right, i was searching all over...no test videos for it yet..but im still gonna get it, once income tax comes in.

[emrufino]

hahaha, thats funny that u mentioned about income tax, cause i work for an income tax place. haha

i think i like the w370 cause it looks smaller.

[biackdragon555]

i want it cuz its green, i like the hx5v too, but i cant afford to spend $350 right now, so ill spend $230 lol, and get the hx5v later on in life ;)

[SonyConvergineer]

The camera will be released in early March, and yes you can zoom while recording.

[wevenhuis]

Is that as good a lens as the Carl Zeiss lens?

[SonyConvergineer]

The Sony G lens is optimized for Sony Cybershot cameras using the Exmor R CMOS sensor. It was designed specifically to take advantage of the low light shooting capabilities of the Exmor CMOS sensor.

[wevenhuis]

Thanks for the info. How can I make the best comparisson of the Sony G lens with a Carl Zeiss lens?

[123azo0oze123]

When its ganna be available ???

[Rwa2aNBoY]

@123azo0oze123

he HX5V camera will be available in black this March for about $350

from a site

[krat0sares]

4x optical zoom Carl Zeiss lens-Vario-Tessar lens with 4x zoom range and 25mm wide angle to cover wide range of shooting situations .

[wevenhuis]

What about the lens: Carl Zeiss?

[lightsout85]

Sony G Lens, not Carl Zeiss, any camera with the Exmor R sensor in Sony cameras use the G Lens

[sergeiANT]

tx1, tx7 - Carl Zeiss

wx1, HX5V, hx1 - Sony G
