Bottom line: I would not purchase this camera again, even if it was on sale for $50.
I purchased the DSC-W7 about a year and a half ago to replace a DSC-S85 (absolutely loved that camera).
the W7 had great batter life and took good photos but I noticed that the indoor shots were not that great and often blurry or out of focus. I wrote the blurry off to the slow shutter speed due to limited aperture (hey, it is a small camera, what do you expect). But the out of focus and long focus times are annoying.
Loved the video capability!
Fast forward to present time. over the past 18 months I have noticed that battery life was decreasing. I wrote this off to the batteries wearing out (use sony AA 2300mah). Bought a new set about 4 months ago. Still had the same decreasing battery life problem even with the new batteries?!?. Now a fresh charged set won’t last for even 10 sec!? clearly something is wrong with the camera. I have seen a few other posts on the net from owners with a similar problem. One took got a $250 repair estimate! I have switched back to my DSC-85 (took it back from the kids) which is still using the same lithium rechargeable that it came with 4-5 years ago!

These Lens work great with the DSC-W1. You need to shut off the flash. It cannot be use with the flash. I use especially the wide angle lens for my Hawaii trip and it works so well. I’m able to capture a wider range that I never thought my camera can do.
I got this lens in late ‘08 for my Sony CyberShot DSC-W1 camera. It came with the adapter ring in the package. It also comes with a little black carry bag & two lens caps. The lens works great for outdoor shots, I think it helps to show more detail in the photos. Also nice on close-ups. Although, when the zoom in totally in, as in not zooming out, the corners are dark from the round lens. So I find that I’ve got to zoom out just a little so that the edges aren’t dark. I’ve used it indoors and haven’t had any issues with the flash creating a shadow, although I’ve mostly used it for daytime outdoor shots. Overall a great deal for how affordable it is, and it’s compact enough to fit in my camera bag with the camera.
