to get better results on CX7.7 you must use manual setting, don't know if the TS7.37 is manual driver...

I really do prefer TOUGH-SHOT 7.37.

And what i do look for a camdriver is how good it is at macro shot, for me it's the barometer. Although when using Tough-Shot, you really have to turn-off the flash when shooting on broad day light like shooting at the sky or clouds much like the same manner when you're using Cyber-Shut.

@Tarete

ToughShot uses all Manual Settings from Cybershot Xperience. The pictures you've posted are all flash shots (macro)

Default ISO for Flash in CX is 200, in ToughShot, its 125.

Which means that:

IN AUTO-MODE, CX will give brighter Flash Shots, which is useful for photographing objects at some distance from camera.

In ToughShot, the ISO is 125, which means that it is good for CLOSE-UP shots ONLY.

I see you haven't posted any flash shot of distant objects?

So according to me, default ISO at 200 is better, if you want lower ISO, you can simply decrease EV which changes ISO. At EV = 1.0, you'll have ISO100 and so.


------------

Moreover, this comparison is improperly done and results from your lack of knowledge on using the drivers properly.
Why don't you post some pictures without flash, indoors, outdoors and others?

@tarete in CX7.7 there is no lower value than -1.0 which is ISO 100
this is for flash shots:

-1.0 = ISO 100
-0.7 = ISO 125
-0.3 = ISO 160
0.0 = ISO 200
+0.3 = ISO 250
+0.7 = ISO 320
+1.0 = ISO 400
+1.3 = ISO 500
+1.7 = ISO 640
+2.0 = ISO 800

guys no offense but the Tough Shot 7.37 sees better than CX 7.7.
CX 7.7 the photos are horrible seems that the camera is inappropriate, need to adjust the cam.
Well the Tough Shot 7.37 this normal for my eyes so is better for me.

@tarete I think -2.0 is auto, but witchking must confirm this

I don't think an informal test can give a proper conclusion. And all u guys need to do is to improve photographing skills.

Well Tough Shot's ISO valeu is variable depend on distance, maybe witchking can incorporate this feature too?

In Auto
Low light: ISO100 for Macro, flash 2 times, ISO160 for long distance, flash 4 times

Night Portrait
ISO 100 for short distance, flash 2 times, ISO 200 for long distance, flash 4 times
