Slim Sony touchscreen compact with Carl Zeiss 5x zoom, ultra-thin metal design from the premium T-series.
The Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T100 is a slim touchscreen compact from 2007 featuring an 8.1-megapixel sensor with a 5x Carl Zeiss zoom and a 3-inch touchscreen. The T-series was Sony's ultra-slim touchscreen line that prioritised pocketability and style alongside quality Zeiss optics.
The Carl Zeiss 5x zoom provides quality optics in an ultra-thin sliding body, and the 3-inch touchscreen was a premium feature for 2007 compacts. The Super SteadyShot stabilisation provides handheld shake reduction across the zoom range.
Build quality is slim Sony metal with the sliding front panel that reveals the lens and powers the camera. The touchscreen interface provides intuitive operation, and the Zeiss optics deliver better image quality than typical slim compacts of the era.
The T100 has minimal value on the used market but the Zeiss optics and touchscreen were premium features for 2007. The slim metal design and quality Zeiss lens provided a more satisfying experience than generic slim compacts.
