Is the sony p73 a good digital camera?

Inch up to the DSC-V1 and save yourself the trouble of going through another upgrade cycle. The Hologram AF Assist makes it worth the price bump.
  • The DSC-V1 uses the same Hologram AF Assist as that found on the DSC-F717. The Hologram AF Assist feature is a Sony-exclusive laser focusing system designed to achieve accurate focus on subjects with little contrast in dark conditions. It projects a safe, visible laser hologram pattern directly onto the subject so the camera can detect the contrast between the edge of the laser pattern and the subject itself.

The W1, P100, and P93 are missing an external flash hot shoe*, and the Hologram Auto Focus Assist, which is a HUGE asset to the V1 and F717. If you were referring to the P72 (instead of P74), it doesn't have those options either. The P72 is one of the cameras I had to return. I don't remember the "focus lock in low light issue" as much as the lag between pushing the shutter button, and actually taking the picture. It seemed like forever! Took awesome pictures, though!

*How important is an external flash? Ask Adul...
