Today’s retro shooters:
- Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W370. 14.1 megapixels. From 2010 (above).
- Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T77. 10.1 megapixels. From 2008 (below).
That plastic tab attached to the T77’s strap is in fact a mini stylus, as the T77’s back is entirely taken up by a 3-inch 16:9 capacitive touchscreen. The only physical controls are the shutter button, power button (you also turn the camera off/on by sliding the front panel), review button and zoom rocker.
The DSC-W370 cost me almost nothing, as it was part of a box of 12 assorted cameras I got on eBay for €30 or so, sold as ‘untested, spares or repairs’ — and 11 of them turned out to be working fine, either needing new batteries or chargers. This Sony just needed its charger.
The DSC-T77 was purchased at a second-hand shop for the princely sum of €12. Both purchases were made in 2021. This camera was originally available in a few colours. The promo image gives iPod vibes (credit: DPReview).
@morrick The proprietary chargers were the thing I hate most. Why didn't they use the micro USB?
