Sony’s new α57 is aimed at serious enthusiasts who are more interested in the outcome than the process. The camera delivers some high-powered DSLR features in a package that’s intuitive enough for less-experienced shooters. And at a print-worthy 16.1-m...
Good Saves you a bundle on software. Prolevel functionality at rookie prices. Higher frame rate than all but the topshelf HDSLR cameras...
Bad The bells and whistles come at the expense of image quality; lowlight, highspeed, and digitally zoomed photos will be noisy. If you ever upgrade to a fullframe HDSLR, it likely won't be a Sony, so you'll need all new lenses...

Sony's SLT concept began life as little more than a minor deviation from the DSLR norm, with a fixed translucent mirror in place of the traditional reflex type, and an electronic viewfinder immediately polarising opinion. Today, however, SLT models con...

Bottom line Aside from its more enthusiast-focused design, the A57 can't be said to be a significant update over the A55 it replaces. True, this isn't entirely a bad thing, as it shares many of that camera's positive attributes, from its snappy focusing performan...

As I recall, this camera’s big brother — SLT-A65 — led me to make these comments: “It would be a tragedy if this baby ended up shooting family pics and snapshots. It’s too good! … my prediction is that this one will fly off the shelves …”At first glan...
Bottom line Quality: top of the class, excellent definition, accurate colour.Why you'd buy the Sony SLT-A57: great quality at a decent price; to shoot top video.Why you wouldn't: you still want the optical view given by a DSLR.Another win for Sony!Sony SLT-A57 Specif...

Bad Mediocre JPEG processing with mushy detail and visible artifacts, LCD viewfinder (vs OLED panel in other Sony models), AF not compatible with manual exposure control in video mode, No live view in 8 or 10 fps continuous shooting modes makes accurate panning very difficult, Counter-intuitive setting of aperture in manual mode, Awkward to navigate between stills and movie playback modes, Main men...
Bottom line The Sony SLT-A57 has the unenviable task of replacing the SLT-A55, which generated huge interest by introducing a ground-breaking translucent fixed-mirror design to the entry-level DSLR market. If you place a premium on the introduction of brand new f...
