The Sony TX7 is one of the more interesting point-and-shoots to have appeared at the beginning of 2010. The 10.2 megapixel sensor and 10x zoom are nice and fine, but the extras are genuinely intriguing. Intelligent Sweep Panorama can blend up to 100 shots into one 270-degree "press and sweep" panoramic shot. And along with the Sony HX5V, it's also one of the first compact cameras that captures 1080i HD video. It's essentially a sleeker, slimmer, hipper version of the HX5V, give or take a feature or two. It will retail for $400 when it hits the shelves in February. It's pricey for sure, but it's definitely worth a look. And Sony has finally relented—all of the Cybershot models launched in 2010 support SD/SDHC cards in addition to the proprietary Memory Stick format.
