The editors didn't like
After each shot the viewfinder/LCD blacks out and the word “Processing” is displayed. Sony inform us that this shouldn't happen
But as it occurred with both the a77 and the aNEX7 we are waiting for an explanation or a solution
Dial-and-wheel interface can be confusing
Menu system is unnecessarily complicated
Auto ISO artificially limited
Hampering low-light shots
Body and lens scratch easily. Not exactly compact with the kit lens attached. Costs a pretty penny
Abstract: They must be putting something in the water at Sony's camera design bureau because right now the company is really on a roll. Suddenly the D-SLR range looks hugely competitive – courtesy of the SLT-A35, A65 and the brilliant A77 – and over in the compact ...

The next step in Sony's evolution of its NEX interchangeable-lens-but-no-bulky-internal-mirror camera system is technically brilliant: an amazingly detailed and clean image sensor shoehorned into a reasonably compact camera body that's incredibly well bui...

This is the camera that could make the DSLR unnecessary for most people. It is smaller, lighter and less ostentatious. It has image-making abilities better than most DSLRs. The range of lenses and accessories is constantly expanding. While the EVF is stil...
