Slim Tiny!
I bought this as a gift for an artist who needs a camera for documentation, travel, teaching. It is very small/compact, easy to operate and is exactly what they were looking for.

Excellent service
I use it to capture those everyday moments when you just can't carry a large camera. This is a compact easy to use camera that captures all those moments. It is not for those distance shots like sporting events.

Excellent camera
The WX300 is an amazing camera for its size. It is very small, but it has a 3" LCD screen, can take almost 500 photos before it needs to be recharged and it has a 20x optical zoom plus 40x digital zoom. The perfect camera for long trips or vacations.

Powerful camera in a tiny package
Lots of great features and easy to use thru its Intuitive design. This is the best camera I've purchase; quite an advancement from the first digital camera that I purchased way back in 1998 (1.2 Megapixels for ~$800)

The WX300 is an amazing camera for its size. It is very small, but it has a 3" LCD screen, can take almost 500 photos before it needs to be recharged and it has a 20x optical zoom plus 40x digital zoom. The perfect camera for long trips or vacations.
Bring the action ultra-close with the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-WX300, a remarkable, 20x zoom ultra-compact camera. Plus, share pics and video easily to Facebook and more with wireless transfer to your smartphone or tablet. Easily shoot all day with battery to spare with up to 500 photos per charge.
Get up close with 20x optical zoom plus 40x Clear Image digital zoom. Most digital zooms use electronic cropping to get closer to the subject, resulting in unsharp images. With Clear Image Zoom the powerful processor compares patterns found in adjacent pixels and creates new pixels to match selected patterns, resulting in more realistic, higher-quality images. Clear Image Zoom doubles optical zoom for closer photos.
This camera features a 18.2 megapixel Exmor R CMOS image sensor that brings out the power of the camera's Sony G lens to deliver extremely fast speed, high resolution, and stunning low-light sensitivity with improved image clarity and drastically reduced grain.
WiFi lets you quickly upload photos and videos to social media sites through your WiFi smartphone or tablet, back them up on a network-connected PC, or view them on a large screen TV.
Record crystal clear movies in high resolution with capabilities for 60i in 1080 AVCHD video. This provides stunning, fast motion video with less distortion for playback on your HD TV. With dual record of stills and movies, you can shoot both at the same time. Take up to 500 photos per charge for high -volume photography on-the-go. Sony's Active Mode image stabilization gives you the freedom to shoot movies even while walking or running. 2-way Active Mode corrects for both vertical and horizontal motion.
Enhanced Superior Auto supports scenes with dynamic motion to provide beautiful results even in dark situations. The result is clearer images with less blur. Capture full 16.2 megapixel resolution images at up to 10 frames per second, helping to ensure that the decisive moment is captured such as the soccer ball flying into the goal. In addition, a mechanical shutter helps reduce distortion when continuously shooting moving subjects.
Picture Effect adds a new level of expression to photos, making ordinary landscapes and portraits come to life by heightening mood and emphasizing certain attributes. Beauty Effects allows edits to skin tones, skin smoothing, shine removal, eye widening, and teeth whitening. Beauty Effects can be combined to further enhance the image.
Intelligent Sweep Panorama mode takes our Sweep Panorama function to the next level with the addition of motion compensation. Even when subjects are moving in the foreground of your landscape, these cameras can detect faces and moving subjects, intelligently stitching different widths together to minimize distortion. Simply press the shutter button and sweep the camera in the desired direction and the camera continuously shoots at a high speed, then seamlessly stitches the images together with automatic position adjustment to create one stunning panoramic image. Available in wide and up to 360° full circle, the camera can take a variety of panoramic shots.
