Abstract: In Sony's about-to-be-released 16.2-megapixel SLT-A55V (which will be known as the A55) DSLR camera, the traditional SLR mirror is replaced with a semi-transparent pellicle mirror that is fixed in place instead of flipping up and down with each exposur...
It would be very easy to dismiss this novel design as a gimmick, but for certain photographers it will provide a real advantage. Image quality is similar to contemporary conventional SLR cameras, but the size and weight of the A55 is much reduced, maki...
Electronic viewfinders aren't to everybody's taste

Arguably, the age of the consumer-level DSLR dawned in 2000 with the Canon EOS D30, and although a lot has happened in the intervening decade - higher and higher pixel counts, huge improvements in low-light image quality, speed and usability - much ha...
Abstract: Mise à jour (03/09/2010): Nous disposons désormais d'un Sony Alpha 55 de série et nous pouvons désormais publier une montée en sensibilité ISO définitive. Pour l'occasion, nous avons utilisé un objectif macro (50 mm f/2,8). Le boîtier est toujours util...
