Sony Digital Cameras Philippines
Are there lenses for Sony DCS-H10? If so, where are they available?
I have a Sony DCS-H10. 
A friend of mine who’s into photography told me it’s a hybrid DLSR, is that true? So yeah, I was also told that I could have lenses for it, but I looked at the SONY site already and I don’t think they have lenses for my camera. :/
So I’m assuming it’s not yet in my country because it was a birthday gift from an aunt from America. I live in the Philippines, just saying.
And I’d also like to ask for lenses that can help my camera not look too digital and more of an DLSR. Any thoughts there?
Thanks. 
Sony’s DSC-H10 is a “Hybrid”, commonly referred to as a “Bridge” camera, it does not have the Mirror & Prism arrangement that defines the DSLR. Bridge cameras have some advantages, but the big disadvantage is that they don’t have interchangeable lenses. In general though they are designed so that the fitted lens will cover the range from wide angle to telephoto. If you examine the images produced at the far and near ends of the focal range there are issues, but for all but the professional the quality is usually excellent.
Okay, so you can’t change the lens, but you can use supplemental lenses. To do this you need to refer to the manual (possibly on the CD that came with the camera) as you may need to apply a setting in the camera menus to temporarily halt/limit the zoom function of the lens. You will also need to use the sleeve that comes with the camera and is normally used to mount the lens hood or filters. The end of that sleeve has a screw thread that allows supplemental lenses such as a fish-eye or tele-booster lens added.
Here’s a link to the sony site that shows accessories available for your camera:
