Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T99 with Sony Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 Overview


Let's compare Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 with Cyber-shot DSC-T99. Both cameras produced Sony. These models are included in the Ultracompact cameras. Sony TX1 was released in 2009, and Sony T99 in 2010. Cyber-shot DSC-T99 is newer, which is a plus. Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 1 years older.
The sensor resolution of Cyber-shot DSC-TX1 is greater than that of Cyber-shot DSC-T99. However, the difference of 4 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 first camera (Cyber-shot DSC-TX1), 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. Both cameras have Optical image stabilization. Both cameras feature a 3-inch fixed screen.
