The H55 costs a little less than most ultra-zoom cameras, but while its 3in screen and 720p video mode are right up there with pricier models, in other ways it feels like a budget model. There’s no HDMI output, and the 10x zoom range is smaller than mo...

For those looking for the one easy-to-use point-and-shoot compact that (almost) does it all, the DSC-H55 from Sony might just fit the bill. The headline spec is impressive: 14.1-megapixels effective resolution, a 10x optical zoom stretching from 25-25...

The Cyber-shot DSC-H55 is a compact zoom shooter from Sony. I was asked to choose between this not-so-new model and one of their latest compact Cyber-shots, the T99 to bring to our Vietnam trip as our secondary camera. I chose the H55 simply because I nee...
Bottom line The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H55 is a nice choice for a compact high-zoom shooter. The 10x zoom will really come in handy especially when traveling. The Sweep Panorama is still a very nice-to-have feature for me as well as the self-timer because my wife and I...

Bottom line The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H55 is one of the more sophisticated big (or 'high') zoom compacts out there at the moment. For us though it doesn't quite trump the 14 megapixel Canon PowerShot SX210 IS though for both results and positive (and moreover fun)...

The Sony H55 is a 14.1MP point and shoot camera with a 10x optical zoom, which covers an equivalent range of 25-250mm on a 35mm format camera. It retails for $249 and is a sort-of middle-of-the-road point and shoot. It’s not quite as high end as the...
Bottom line All in all, the H55 looks to be a decent camera for folks not wanting or needing to go all the way up to the HX5V. The Sony H55 still has some powerful features and a whole lot of resolution to work with at 14.1MP. The Sweep Panorama mode automatical...
