Is Sony a good brand for camera?

I'm thinking of buying a Sony P&S to carry around when I don't feel like having my DSLR. Are Sony point and shoots good cameras?

The newer CMOS models HX, WX, etc, are good. I would pass on the cheaper Sony compacts.

Go for the Panasonic with Leica Lenses. You will never regret this buy. Panasonics have the best shake reduction in the world.

Not to sure about that one....the best camera doesn't really exist, just the photographer who has a great eye!

I would say Canon is definitely the most popular in point and shoots. I've also had 2 Casios - not happy. Casio point and shoots have internal memory, which is useful, but the quality of the pictures leaves much to be desired. I've had good results from Canon, but my 2 friends are happy with their Sonys.

All brands have cameras that might be better or worse suited for a particular photographer. In general I think Sony makes good cameras, but you'd be better off comparing specific models than going by a brand name generalization.
