Sony Cyber-shot DSC-W50

A typical compact camera from the end of the first decade of the 21st century.

It served for many years in the family, replacing the somewhat outdated Canon camera.

Zeiss optics and the image sensor could surprise with quality. In many cases, this camera performs better than the much newer Nikon model.

Its drawbacks are the Memory Stick cards developed by Sony, which were much more expensive than competing SDs, and the requirement to recharge the battery outside the camera.
