An incredibly fancy looking camera, the DSC-U60 has more than just looks to make you pick it off the shelf. A vertical and ultra sleek camera, the U60 is waterproof and can go down 5 ft in water! Now, this is unquestionably outstanding for this digital camera considering its price.

What is amazing about the U60 is its total reliability in terms of durability that has been achieved here by having ‘O-ring sealing closures’. This model truly looks like it is designed for all adventurous, curious and active minds of today. Built in a long vertical shape, you can hold it using a single hand like a mobile and more importantly, you can be active during each photograph with its quick start-up, which takes even less than a second.
U60 has its buttons conveniently spread across its interface. The model offers seven Scene modes comprising of an underwater mode that adapts the camera according to the blue colour of the water, and an action mode that helps you click pictures of fast moving objects. Moreover, the camera has an all-new Image Transfer software by Sony that enables a swift one-step digital downloads from the camera to a PC via a USB port.

A good portable camera
It’s been more than a year since I’ve been using this camera and am still very very pleased with it. I wanted something which could be taken everywhere without the worry of dropping it. And since DSC-U60 is very sturdy, it met my needs perfectly. Also, it is more portable than many other cameras being waterproof. It’s only a 2 megapixel but in spite of this, the picture quality is still good. You won’t find a zoom or optical viewfinder. But the main USP of this camera is its portability. U can take it anywhere and everywhere without a care in the world.
