Sony DSC W55 is a nice compact digital camera delivering good color, focus and resolution.
You can take up to 380 shots before the battery runs out. Optical image stabilisation is lacking, but there is a high ISO setting, allowing higher shutter speeds. Image noice control leaves more to be desired: at ISO400 noise becomes visible.
The camera has selectable aspect ratios and it can take pictures in the right ratio and pixel dimension for widescreen high definition televisions (16:9 and 1920x1080 pixels).
