The editors liked
The image quality is comparable with that of its sibling
The a77
Which means it is dazzling. Images are sharp
Correctly exposed
With accurate colour and incredible resolved detail. The camera is beautifully balanced in the hand even though at first gl
Excellent image quality
Extremely solid build quality
Clear and sharp electronic viewfinder
Intuitive three-dial control system. Excellent images even at high-ISO levels. Best-in-class shooting performance. Comfortable to shoot with and well balanced
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
Incredibly sharp, precise electronic viewfinder, Good general responsiveness / Builtin flash, Nice design and handling / Customisable interface, Noise handled very well up to 6400 ISO, Good 1080 HD video mode
No builtin mechanical stabilisation, You'll need a topnotch lens to make the most of those 24 Megapixels!, Poor battery life (230 photos) / Coninuous shooting with AF a bit slow (3.5 fps), Can't take a still photo while filming video / Noisy shutter, Proprietary accessories hotshoe / Still not many lenses available
