Key Advantages

The Sony DSC-H400 offers a remarkable 63x zoom lens, perfect for wildlife and sports photography without needing additional lenses. Its 20.1 MP sensor provides sufficiently detailed images for print and digital use. The camera includes Optical SteadyShot stabilization, significantly reducing image blur. It also supports Full HD video recording, enhancing its versatility. Easy-to-use controls and a lightweight design make it accessible to beginners. The large grip and ergonomic design help stabilize the camera during extended shooting sessions.

Limitations

Being equipped with a CCD sensor, the DSC-H400 may exhibit higher noise levels in low-light conditions compared to CMOS sensors. The fixed lens design limits adaptability for other photography styles requiring interchangeable lenses. Autofocus speed might be slower in challenging lighting or fast-moving scenarios. The camera lacks Wi-Fi or Bluetooth connectivity, limiting instant sharing options. Its maximum ISO of 3200 may be insufficient for very low-light conditions. Additionally, the user interface and display resolution are basic compared to more modern models.
