Sony DSC-60U Top Reviews

Capturing summer memories on the beach at a nightclub or in the pool just got more fun with the new Cyber-shot DSC-U60 digital camera from Sony.

The Cyber-shot DSC-U60 digital camera's rugged and waterproof design brings picture taking to places users would be cautious in taking a conventional camera: the skateboard park, the side of a mountain and even up to 5 feet underwater!

Because much of life's greatest moments occur at unexpected times and in unexpected places, Sony designed the new DSC-U60 to accompany the user on almost any adventure - Finally, a Camera for the Sport Utility Lifestyle.

Fully weatherproof with O-ring sealing closures, the new Cyber-shot U60 is a digital camera designed to meet the rigors of an active lifestyle. Its unique vertical orientation (designed for one-handed operation) and fast start up time (less than a second) ensure that the user remains a part of the activity even when taking a picture.Adding to that experience, the Cyber-shot U60 model's buttons are laid out to be easily accessible with the thumb. With a few clicks of the Scene button, users can switch between seven different scene modes, including an underwater setting (noted by a fish icon) to adjust for the blue hue of water and an action setting (noted by a running man icon) to capture fast moving subjects.
