Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W370 with Olympus Stylus 9000 Overview


Let's compare Olympus Stylus 9000 with Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W370. These models are included in the Small Sensor Compact cameras. Olympus 9000 was released in 2009, and Sony W370 in 2010. Cyber-shot DSC-W370 is newer, which is a plus. Stylus 9000 1 years older.
The sensor resolution of Stylus 9000 is greater than that of Cyber-shot DSC-W370. However, the difference of 2 MP is not very significant. The more megapixels the camera has, the more detailed and clear the picture will be. The number of megapixels will also affect the maximum size of the photos, which then can be printed without loss of quality.
At the second camera (Cyber-shot DSC-W370), the minimum ISO value is lower, which gives more opportunities for shooting in daylight. A larger maximum ISO allows you to take good pictures in the dark. At Sony W370, the maximum ISO is greater by 1600. Both cameras have Sensor-shift image stabilization. Sony W370 has a larger 3-inch Fixed screen, the other camera has a 2-inch Fixed screen.
Olympus Stylus 9000 has 2.0 fps continuous shooting.
