More photos of this camera

The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W80 is a point-and-shoot camera designed specifically for automatic photography. The 7.2-megapixel DSC-W80, like the DSC-W90 and the DSC-W200, offers an optically stabilized 35mm-105mm (35mm equivalent) 3x Carl Zeiss Vario-Tessar zoom lens. And, like the W90 and the W200, it is equipped with an optical viewfinder, a 115,000-pixel 2.5-inch LCD screen and Sony's Bionz image processing engine, which the company claims improves speed, image quality and battery life. Although the W80 is designed for automatic photography, it offers many exposure aids, including automatic exposure bracketing, spot and center-weighted metering modes, a live histogram, three selectable flash output levels and Sony's Double Anti-blur feature, which extends the camera's flash range. The W80 is available with a black, silver, pink or white finish.
