The iPhone-inspired Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T70 has been called “sleek and simple” by a reviewer.

The slim camera comes with a range of features, including image stabilisation and a “smile shutter”, which can detect the expression of a face in the photo and take a photo of the subject while they are smiling.

However, TrustedReviews. com gives this function a mixed review at best, as the camera only automatically took a photograph when it recognised a grimace “so extreme I dare not publish it for fear of being hunted down by Batman”.

The reviewer was more complimentary towards the camera’s face-detection functionality, which can track particular subjects and keep them in focus.

According to Cameras.co.uk, the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T70′s red eye retouch function is also a helpful tool and image sharpness levels are “above average”.

With a touch-sensitive widescreen monitor measuring three inches across, the 8.1 megapixel camera can be connected to an HD TV through a video cable and docking cradle and offers “a lot of gadget for your money”.
