 Stay away from this camera! November 18, 2008
I bought two of these cameras for gifts Christmas 2007. Unfortunately, I lost my own camera and decided to use one of these as an emergency replacement. When I opened the box the first camera was dead on arrival. Well, not exactly DOA. It constantly powered up only to shut down immediately. I tried replacing batteries to no avail. Sent it back to Sony for warranty repair. Then I decided, I had better open the second to see if it functioned correctly. It did. But unfortunately only for a few months. Now, it has the same problem. Evidently, it has to do with the the lens not retracting. I have to physically force the lens closed in order to power up the camera; in addition the flash never works.
I'm not sure if they're still selling this model, but if they are, you would be wise to stay away. I thought I got a great deal because of the Sony name and Black Friday price, but it was a total waste of money. Buy a Canon instead!
For what it is July 22, 2008
Simple and easy to use. Decent exposure. Zoom quality is poor but expected at this price point. You will need to buy a card to store your photos as the internal 16MB memory won't get you very far. This is no Leica quality camera or lens but it does a very decent job considering the price.
 Good for Beginner, Photo Quality Poor July 21, 2008
Bought one of these at a good price, but the price is not good enough to keep it. Upgrading from an older Kodak C730 3.1MP, I was very disappointed. The picture quality is just simply awful. I took much better quality pictures with my older camera. The turnout is grainy in most situations (every now and then you get lucky with a good one) and the color seems to be very dull. Software enhancement didn't help much either. I tried playing with all the settings, but it didn't seem to help. Besides, I never had to adjust anything on the Kodak, Auto seemed to work just fine. I think this is a camera that somebody who has never owned a digital camera would enjoy, or maybe someone who is upgrading from one of those cheap off brand cameras you see in stores for under $50. But if you've ever used a decent quality digital camera, look elsewhere. I was very surprised that Sony would let a product with such low quality out into the market. Learned something new. This is my first Sony still camera, and probably will be my last. I was willing to live without the view finder because the style of the camera made it easy to use without one. It's a very attractive camera, small and sleek. Too bad it doesn't operate as well as it looks. Think I'm gonna look at a Canon PowerShot A590IS next, I've heard good things about them. Besides, I have a lot of SD cards laying around, didn't feel like spending the extra money on a proprietary memory card that Sony is cashing in on (MemoryStick).
Sony Cybershot S650 7.2MP Digital Camera Does Not Work July 1, 2008
I purchased this camera for a friend. The camera turns on and shuts off right away. He's tried several sets of batteries to no avail.
I will be calling Sony on his behalf given that he's overseas and can't do it.
I am dissapointed that it does not work which may point to the Quality Assurance efforts at Sony.
I am hopeful it can be resolved easily and a replacement is not required.
Thanks.

Simple to use but there is no memory stick and the internal memory only allows for 15 pictures.
