Viewed from the top it’s a slim round-cornered rectangle. The WX350 feels like the word pocketable was invented for it. On its back it has a smaller footprint than my iPhone 4S – a small phone by today’s standards. Apart from the depth, it’s smaller than most phones. The physical dimensions – 96x55x26mm and 164g in weight – don’t really convey the impact of its miniature dimensions when you see it and hold it in your hand. But it’s the size that really takes your breath away. It is amazingly compact and it looks beautiful.

What’s more Sony has managed to squeeze in Wifi with NFC for initiating wireless connection by physically tapping it aganst another NFC-capable device. So far, so ordinary you might think, but the WX350 fits all of that and more into a very, very compact body – indeed, according to Sony it’s the world’s smallest and lightest compact camera with a 20x optical zoom. The Sony WX350 is a compact super-zoom with a 20x optical range, 3 inch 460k dot LCD screen and an 18.2 Megapixel CMOS sensor.
