Weighing 7.0 ounces, it feels solid and stable in the hand, and all the control dials and buttons are truly responsive. And when you opened the access panel to remove the Memory Stick, the battery remains securely in place. The menu system on the 1.8-inch LCD is sophisticated, with clever but small icons. The DSC-P8 packs a full feature set, including a viewable histogram—a nice touch. There are multiple configurations for white balance (adjusting only to flash is convenient), metering, and exposure, which enthusiasts require. Other notable features include abundant auto settings, multiple video settings (with audio), and the ability to shoot video in macro mode. Sony's 3X optical zoom lens has a 35-mm equivalent of 39 to 117 mm. But the placement of the zoom control feels awkward when you're peering through the viewfinder with your left eye. The camera uses a NP-FC11 InfoLithium rechargeable battery and comes with Sony's proprietary 16MB Memory Stick. Introduced in 2003 the camera was touted high for the class of camera it is a 3.2mp. The camera pictured above is in Fine condition and still has the cardboard Sony tag on it.
