With so many options out there, it can become a daunting task to pick a good superzoom that's priced right. Sony manages to enamor us with its new superzoom offering - the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-HX1, with really good performance, and a plethora of features, but a slightly hefty pricetag.
To begin with, the DSC-HX1 is on the tinier side at 115 x 83 x 92 mm, but it weighs quite a bit at 544 grams. In spite of that it doesn't feel too heavy, thanks to the fact that the weight's evenly distributed, making those high-zoom, handheld shots where you need maximum stability, no hassle at all. While the handgrip's good - its covered in textured rubber, and is decently sized - it could have been better, since the lower side of it doesn't protrude enough, so your little and ring finger don't get the ideal amount of rest.
The body's made of slightly textured, tough, black plastic and a shiny black plastic finish lens exterior that gives it a slick, yet classy look. The top side's loaded with buttons - the shutter, focus, burst mode, power buttons and a mode dial, along with a small preview and cancel button. The facing side has the menu and delete buttons, along side a scroll and navigation D-pad. Beside it rests 3-inch, 230,400 pixel movable LCD screen that swivels on one axis, and is great for those oddball shots.
The DSC-HX1 leaves little to complain about where build quality is concerned, and is both sturdy, well-designed and boasts of great looks.
