10 frames per second continuous focus burst shooting, GPS, great video autofocus
Electronic Viewfinder won't be for everyone, 16:9 ratio of LCD screen not ideal for stills shooting
Not only does the A55 pack out its specification with 10fps continuous shooting, full-time phase detection live view, GPS, a 16.2MP sensor and a high-res, tilt-angle LCD… it delivers on all these promises in droves. The electronic viewfinder may not be...
Das neue Konzept der Sony SLT-A55V geht voll auf: Die Kamera liefert gute Bildqualität, ist schnell und hat eine umfangreiche Ausstattung. Wer auf die GPS-Funktion verzichten kann, minimal geringere Bildqualität und etwas langsamere Serienbildfunktion in...
Very good photo quality, Incredible continuous shooting performance, Sensorshift image, stabilization Flipdown, rotating 3inch LCD with excellent sharpness, very good outdoor/low light visibility, Large, sharp electronic viewfinder, Great live view implementation with very fast autofocus, face and smile detection, and an electronic level, Auto mode not only picks scene modes, it can also use HDR,
Tends to overexpose; some highlight clipping and purple fringing, Widescreen LCD not suited for 3:2 still shooting (you'll see black bars on other side of the scene when you're composing a shot), Electronic viewfinder has a strong "rainbow effect", also seems a bit washed out, Camera locks up for 20 seconds after taking a burst that includes RAW images, Movie mode recording time drops considerabl
The Sony Alpha SLT-A55 is a camera that is more than it first appears to be. While its looks scream "oh great, another Sony D-SLR", it uses a radically different translucent mirror design allows for super-fast autofocus in live view (and in movie mode...
sehr schnell, hervorragende Bildqualität, gutes Display, kompakte Bauform, GPSModul
verhältnismäßig teuer, geringe AkkuLaufzeit
Profis freuen sich über eine innovative Kamera, die mit ihrer Bildqualität locker auf Augenhöhe mit einer Canon 550D oder der Nikon D90 liegt. Sony hat die mittlerweile in die Jahre gekommene Bauweise sinnvoll aufgewertet und liefert eine insgesamt üb...
Extremely fast continuous-mode shooting at full resolution/image quality, (High-speed shooting isn't just for sports; is a real benefit for candid/kid photography as well), Live phase-detect autofocus during video recording, True (100% frame-accurate) ...
More exposure variability than we like to see, Overexposure bias in metering system under bright/high-key conditions, Maddening black-screen delay (15 seconds) after filling buffer, before you can review any photos, total buffer clearing time is very s...
While I found enough to quibble about to justify my role as a reviewer, I also found the Sony A55 and A33 to be uniquely compelling cameras. The most telling point was how hard I found it going back to an "ordinary" SLR after just a day of sh...
Abstract: At a time when many new interchangeable-lens cameras have been forgoing reflex mirrors altogether, Sony’s new Alpha 55 (and Alpha 33) take a radically different approach. Instead of ditching the mirror—and with it, speedy, reliable autofocus—Sony gave ...
Sony hat bei der Bildqualität mächtig aufgeholt und nahezu mit den Canon 550D und Nikon D90 gleichgezogen. Zudem setzt Sony mit der A33/A55V einen neuen Maßstab, wenn es um das Bedienkonzept geht: Die Kombination aus feststehendem Spiegel, elektronis...
Ecran LCD de qualité monté sur rotule, Mode rafale à 10 i/s et mode panoramique, Belle qualité des images jusqu'à 1600 ISO, Mode vidéo HDTV 1080 avec un vrai autofocus rapide et prise micro, Stabilisation et GPS intégrés
Qualité de fabrication en retrait par rapport à la concurrence, Viseur électronique qui peut surprendre, Autonomie limitée avec le GPS, Aucun réglage possible pendant l'enregistrement vidéo, Qualité relative du 18-55 mm livré en kit
Véritable boîtier polyvalent aussi doué en photo qu'en vidéo, le Sony Alpha 55 présente quelques atouts hors norme comme la possibilité de réaliser des images panoramiques à la volée ou d'enregistrer les données GPS. Une vraie réussite. Dommage que l'o...
