About the Sony Cyber-shot DSC-G3
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-G3, from January 2009, combines a 1/2.3-type CCD of about 10 megapixels with a 35-140 mm equivalent lens at F3.5-10, a 4x optical zoom. Unlike many compacts of its generation, it records to Memory Stick-family media.
Its most visible feature is the 3.5-inch rear screen. The body is 97 x 59 x 22 mm and weighs 185 g. It runs on a lithium-ion battery that was sold with a charger. The 140 mm telephoto end and the large display make it easy to review shots on the spot. The F3.5-10 aperture range is a reminder that the lens works best in good light, so bright daytime outings suit it well. Its 22 mm depth keeps it comfortable to carry despite the large screen.
Buying one used
It records to Memory Stick-family media, so make sure you have a compatible card. Check the lithium-ion battery and charger, the condition of the 3.5-inch screen, and smooth lens extension.
