I read the camera noise reduction is not good. Did you notice that by crop the image?

It hasn't been an issue -- I've cropped pictures -- but I am not a pro. I love the lens. It's great for low light shots.

Thanks for the info Corey! I agree that zooming during recording can get a bit nauseating if done too much/too fast but it is a nice feature to have in certain instances. At least the zoom works before/after like it does on my old 3.2MP Cyber-shot. Thanks for clearing that up.

You can edit the picture straight from the camera. The camera comes preinstalled with some filters you might like and you can also crop it :)

Honestly, I think you would be terribly disappointed. The camera would pop to a very high ISO to handle the low light and the photos would be grainy and have smushy detail.

I didnt see much of distortion. It just crops a bit from top and bottom. U can even chose not to be on full screen.

Are you shooting in burst mode?Also make sure you have Long Exposure Noise Reduction turned OFF. Its found in the Custom Functions menus under Image (C.Fn-3).

I never noticed any cropping. I think there would only be cropping if you got the wrong size for your camera i.e. magnifier is smaller than the lcd screen

It's a bit pixelated. About the quality of the PS3 camera. I prefer my external Logitech HD camera

I took some audio with my iPhone of the shutter in action in auto mode in decent lighting so you can hear for yourself. Read the video description as well: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdiwiOx0S90

Hi there. I haven't checked the quality of the video with low light, if that is what you are asking.

I haven't noticed noise from the shutter, but there is some noise when the camera is turned on - I suspect from the sensor cleaning unit. Noise, however, is not usually an issue since I shoot mostly outside.

Hi, apparently this Sony Camera doesn't support cropping of images within the camera itself. -Ely

The Oppo 981 has a noise reduction setting that can be turned on for more grainy material. It works pretty well on most material, but on some material it actually removes some picture detail.

yeah, it's not a great camera to begin with and it's probably breathed it's last breath. My camera has always been blurry and I've been disappointed with it. It's dead

I concur, the camera is crap. Here is what I have learned: Sharper Image no longer exists but various low quality vendors both US and foreign have purchased the right to use the name. Do not buy anything with the Sharper Image logo. It's all crap.

It does not provide great images in the dark. It is actually overly plagued with noise. I returned mine yesterday after a week.

Screengrabs from the video are excellent. The photo functionality itself is not good.
