Beat up the camera, and it keeps taking photos.
Review of Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W70 by menagerie

Advantages: digital, can be carried anywhere, any time for inconspiculous picture taking
Disadvantages: if you don't take care of it, it may need an expensive repair.

...had to be sent to Sony for cleaning and repair. It cost her $178. Add another $20 and she could have thrown her camera away and gotten an upgrade. However, she paid for the repair, and her camera continues to perform beyond her experience in taking pictures. Thank goodness it is a digital camera, and she can download the photos on her desktop for review and printing, storage or deletion at no cost. Can I recommend this camera? Well, just look at ...

Manufacturer's product description

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W70 is an ideal camera for starting out right in digital photography, combining the quality of 7.2 megapixels and Carl Zeiss 3X optical zoom, the performance of High Sensitivity mode for great low-light shots, the simplicity of on-screen Function Guide for easy setup, and the convenience of 58 MB2 Internal Memory for shooting images in-camera. Higher megapixels give you more detail and definition for large prints and cropping in on your subject. Sony's advanced Super HAD (Hole Accumulated Diode) CCD design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise. The DSC-W70 has a bright 2.5" LCD screen for setting up and viewing images - with a one touch " Play" button that makes it quick and easy to view your photos. User-friendly controls and simple on-screen Function Guide text/icon display help you set up camera functions - and you' ll have greater creative freedom to adjust color mode (including "Natural" for subtle colors and "Rich" for more intense colors), sensitivity, brightness and image size. A new High Sensitivity Mode (ISO 1000) allows you to shoot with great results in low-light conditions - and Sony's original Clear RAW NR (Noise Reduction) image processing technology helps suppress the color noise that can accompany high-sensitivity shooting.
