  i'm disappointed with sony DSC-H9,

CONS: Image quality is bad..very bad for ccd with 8mp.the image quality not better than kodak ls 734 with schneider lens..

OVERALL SCORE:5/10

  Worth every penny. Amazing still shots and just as impressive action camera! Awesome!

PROS: Features are amazing yet camera is still compact and light. Fun to use and great for those getting into photography and not yet willing to spend the money for a DSLR. "Night Shot" feature is very cool and expands the photo opportunities. Camera produces awesome colors and captures colors lost among most other models. Images will pop off the screen not matter what they are! Awesome camera!

CONS: Action shots are a little harder to capture but with time you can get them right! other than that great camera!!!

OVERALL SCORE:9/10

  Better than S5 and FZ8 ...tried it myself. 2 many bad reviews out of envy :) Have the decency to try one than talk about it

PROS: Just try it. You'll be amased if you're semi-pro or beginer.

CONS: The price could be lower. Everybody feels the need to compare it with a DSLR because it's simply one of the best bridge arround.

OVERALL SCORE:9/10

  Best Ultrazoom on the Market!!!!

PROS: 15x zoom, high speed shutter, great imaging processor, LCD with tilt, night shot, face recognition, smaller in size than the H5

CONS: No longer uses AA batteries but that is not necessarily a bad thing.

  Sony Cyber Shot DSC-H9/The Big Game Is Even Bigger In HD/NightShot

PROS: High Definition/Carl Zeiss 15x optical zoom / 8-megapixel

CONS: Not on this one!
