'Sony's first translucent-mirror camera offers impressive continuous-autofocus capabilities, an amazing burst mode, and excellent image quality to go along with its smaller size. '
'excellent camera'
'Part of a new generation of cameras, the SLT-A55 is truly innovative. '
'Because the Sony Alpha SLT-A55 doesn't have to move a mirror around, Sony has been able to get a remarkable 10 frame-per-second burst rate out of the camera.'
'This is a great step-up camera for anyone who feels shackled by automated settings as well as a great on-the-go camera for anyone accustomed to a DSLR. '
'brilliant camera'
'It has a host of new specifications and features that should make it a superior camera to its predecessor. '
'The S80 is very well made and it is highly likely that the superb anodised finish will be hard wearing.'
'The S80's camera body is very thin, measuring only 0.7 inches in thickness, and it's a stylish-looking model with six body colors.'
'The viewing angle was excellent, with no apparent loss of contrast or colour shifts when not viewing the display straight on; this is excellent news for those who like to shoot at waist level or from above the head.'
