An excellent camera.

An excellent camera , capable of many things. That is, believe it or not, one of my problems. I can`t find the operating instructions. The pics are superb ,but I feel I can`t progress without the instructions. Have tried on line without success. Apart for my own stupidity ,I highly recommend this camera.

Instructions do not work

I have never been able to connect the camera via Bluetooth to my computer therefore I have only used it two or three times. I could not find any instructions that worked.

Not good features

After 5 months, I am not so satisfied from the pictures quality. Only in sunny days are goods. Very difficult online manual.

Neat and easy to use

Bought as a present with the Wifi app in mind to download photos. Huge problem with the app as it doesn't work! Sony you need to rectify this. Also, the camera is so small in size, it would be difficult for someone with average to large hands.

Good little camera at a great price!

Early days, but I’m liking this camera a lot. Very small and light which matters to me as I carry it while hiking. Takes good close up pictures as well as landscapes. Great value!

A great compact camera.

The WX220 is a great all-round compact camera that easily slips into a pocket. it has a wide range of features that would befit a much larger camera. The only criticism I have is that it is susceptible to dust ingress which is very noticeable when using the zoom feature, especially on a bright background.

So far so good

It achieves the zoom detail I wanted and couldn;t get from my smartpone and is easier to carry thamnmy previous SLR. I need to get my head round the details.

My 4th Sony Digital Camera

I have purchased the new camera because , although still servicable, I have dropped and damaged my previous WX200. I wanted more of the same. The WX220 is a slight upgrade. The only disappointment is that you can no longer trim and resize in camera.

A very dishonest company

This company lacks integrity, and they were awful to work with. Purchase your camera somewhere else!

I can not get over the resolution and detail of the pictures, I use it more often than my D70 Nikon.

Features not available

It is not until the item is purchased, opened and being set up for use that an expected online feature is found to be no longer available for use.This should be flagged up with Sony agents, as a correction on the camera instructions, packaging and in all Sony websites which should provide this up to date information on the product before a sale is made. The result is that wi-fi and photo editing need additional solutions.

Last 20mm thin camera from Sony?

Perfect camera with large zoom in pocket size. Purchased in 2014 to replace the WX150 which replaced the WX100. Now in 2019 there is no follow up from SONY in 20mm thin pocket cameras. After the WX220 stops working I can buy similar product from competitors only, or a smartphone.

Good all round compact camera

Bought this when I returned the Sony DSC W800 which had poor resolution and colour saturation. This cost about £90 more but I'm glad I made the swap and the WX220 excels in those regards. Would be better if it had a finger grip on the front rather than being totally flat but it's such a light camera it's a minor issue. Very difficult to find out how to work the camera functions as there doesn't appear to be a manual, having to refer to a web page for information instead, which is not necessarily convenient.

Excellent quality and easy to use

This is my third compact digital camera and by far the best. I found the menu easy to navigate through, the camera is easy to operate and the quality of the photos is brilliant. Highly recommended.

Great Pocket Camera

I wanted a very small pocket camera and after reading many technical reviews it was obvious the Sony WX220 was the best one. I'm certainly not disappointed, it's a great all round point and shot camera with excellent pictures and video. The zoom is amazing for such a small camera. The online instructions could be better though.

Sharp results

This is my second one. I shoot about 5,000 cycles a year and wear a camera out quickly. The Sony wide angle is great for me photographing houses and the zoom comes in handy when necessary. I'll probably buy one more before I retire....

Works well

I received this camera as a gift, and really like all of its features. The only problem is that the cord that comes with it, doesn't fit any port in the camera. Tried calling the company direct, and was given a replacement, which was the same wrong cord.

great little camera easy to use

purchased to replace a cannon camera which I was finding heavy / bulky so wanted something small that will fit into pocket and easy to use this fits the bill perfectly.

Perfect camera for hiking

I was looking for a pocket camera to take on my daily hikes. This little Sony is perfect. Now I have a camera with me so I won't miss a picture again.

I could not be more pleased.

I bought this before a trip to Portugal to supplement my bulky DSLR and was so pleased with it I left my DSLR behind. It has an impressive range of settings and features--I took many excellent photos in all light conditions with only one or two duds. I love the feel of it, the way it sits in my hand. Only quibble is that the printed instructions are frustratingly brief and it took me some time to work out how to access the various menus. Perhaps an extended users guide focussing on how the menus are organised on the website?

Nice camera

I purchased this camera for a one week trip out west. I found this to be the perfect size for this trip. I took nearly 500 pictures and the camera worked very, very well. It is easy to use, has several photo options, and I enjoy owning it. The WIFI feature is easy to use and I sent exceptionally high quality pictures to my phone to forward to others. This camera could be difficult for people that aren't up on technology, but being in the mainstream I found it easy to use. I am very happy about this purchase.

Wonder Camera!

This is an incredible little camera!!! You can take it out of the box, put in the battery and charge it, put in a memory card, sold separately, and start shooting. If you want to do many, many different types of photography the options are all there in the camera. This camera can do everything a much bigger, more cumbersome camera can do. I just slip this in my side pocket and I am always ready to take a picture if I wish and am not having to carry around a large bag of equipment. This camera would be an excellent choice for everyone.
