My Review 

I bought the Sony D55 as a second camera, so I can take it places. I started using it, and I was not impressed with the quality of pictures. Also, battery life is low. I have used Canon cameras before, and I feel it is my great mistake buying Sony. Canon offers more options and has a better quality and better battery life.
