Photos: Sony Cyber-shot DSC-H9

Sony puts all the manual features no more than a single click away on the H9, including metering, which many manufacturers bury.

I really like the scroll wheel the H9 supplies for adjusting manual settings, although it would be great if you could use it to navigate the menus as well.

The H9 includes Sony's NightShot infrared mode, which you usually find on its camcorders. If you like to get creative, it's a nice feature with which to experiment.
