The new Sony Cyber-shot DSC-T700 is sort of a combination of two other Cyber-shots: the DSC-T2 and DSC-T300. The T700 rightfully replaces the T300 in Sony's lineup and has much of that camera's hardware, including an improved version of its 3.5-inch touch-screen display. From the T2 the T700 gets 4GB of internal memory. The result is an ultracompact pocket camera that doubles as a portable photo album.

At first I saw the $399.99 T700 as maybe a bit too much of a niche and was unsure it wouldn't be able to be both a good snapshot camera and a digital photo album. In the end, however, I was left pretty impressed with the camera's massive feature set and respectable performance.
