Our verdict

Advances in technology have allowed travel compact cameras to remain competitive, and Sony has pushed the standard even higher with the Cyber-shot HX20V. Although it is not the most creative camera in terms of manual control, the HX20V allows great pictures to be captured almost effortlessly thanks to the Superior Auto mode and other automatic settings.

While premium in its pricing, the HX20V justifies the extra spend and makes an ideal pocket camera for the discerning photographer.
