SONY A58: GOOD SLR CAMERA AT POCKET REACH

SONY A58: GOOD SLR CAMERA AT POCKET REACH

This wonderful Sony has a new model, the Sony A68. If you are looking for a great SLR camera with which to take your first steps, we recommend that you take a look here :). The purchase of a SLR camera is always an important decision, because it will accompany you in the best moments of your life, it will capture the images you want to retain forever, the moments that you do not want to be prey to oblivion, that beauty that captivates you and you I would like to keep your retina forever ... Your camera will be your traveling companion, your friend, the one that cannot fail you in those transcendental moments. Before buying, make sure that it is the right decision, that you have a feeling with it and that you will form a good team. A painter always chooses his brushes with great care, do the same with your photo machine. If you are thinking of buying your first camera or renewing yours, I invite you to read this article to learn about other options that may be less known than Canon or Nikon SLRs, which are almost always talked about, the most “famous” in the market so to speak. And as expanding the range of options is always good, today I present the Sony A58 SLR camera . Unlike traditional SLRs, it is a camera with a translucent mirror. To not go into very technical details (this is usually very boring and does not always contribute much) I will tell you that this type of cameras what they get with this system is an ultrafast continuous focus and an autofocus of great precision and speed. That is, in addition to being smaller and lighter (for not carrying the traditional mirror system), they achieve greater sharpness even in difficult conditions such as a race or other sports.

TO WHOM?

Not all cameras are suitable for all people, each camera is aimed at a specific audience and with certain expectations. Just as the most expensive cameras are not better as much as you can afford them. Why do you want to buy a hypercarísima professional camera if you are not going to get even half of it, the buttons will seem like a hieroglyph and you will end up shooting automatically? Or the opposite, you will not try to buy the cheapest machine, although its possibilities are very limited if you live from this ... Well that ... Before reading further, you will be interested to know that this is an ideal camera for those who start in SLR cameras, inveterate travelers who do not like to carry a lot of weight and those who opt for a versatile and quality camera but without paying a high price.

A CAMERA THAT "MAKES WORK EASIER"

And not only because it weighs less than 500 grams. and it is small, which facilitates its transport, but the viewfinder allows you an accurate real-time display of the scenes that you are going to capture to preview and instantly modify the exposure settings. That is, you do not have to wait to shoot to see the histogram or the result to see if it is well exposed and have to delete if this is not the case. You can do it at the time of shooting and you save repeating. It also offers a help for framing . Its automatic mode suggests a possibility of professional framing and you decide whether or not to accept it. I personally think that you, if you already know the art of framing , will have a better creative eye than a machine. But that is your decision, if you like what it offers you ... it is another tool you can use! If you don't have time to set the parameters ... its range of automatic modes is wide enough to cover different situations, up to 11 automatic modes ! (I almost can't think of so many situations, I'm used to five ... ) Since it has 15 focus points, it allows you to focus much faster and with more precision. My camera is nine and I have more than enough ... imagine with fifteen! You can take almost 700 photos without having to change the battery and you can save a lot of time editing, because you have to apply 15 creative filters when shooting. Since the screen is foldable (2.7 inches and 460,000 points), it will save you from having to throw yourself on the ground more than once . Do you see why he said it makes work easier?

OTHER FEATURES

  • 20 megapixels of resolution. A very tempting number, although do not think that only by megapixels your photos will be better huh? Above all it will serve you when it comes to printing on paper and for enlargements. The table in this post will guide you very well.
  • Its sensor offers a wide range of ISO sensitivity (100–16,000), allowing you to obtain decent images (and no noise) even in low light conditions.
  • Record and shoot up to 8 frames per second with a special mode, 5 frames per second in normal mode.
  • It has available a lot of interchangeable lenses (macro, TV, wide angle ...). Compatible with Sony type A mount lenses, operation with Minolta / Konica Minolta lenses.
  • Full HD video recording with fluidity and great detail, because it has a continuous autofocus that will not miss any detail, even when zooming.

DRAWBACKS

And as we like to miss everything , because something negative will also have to say, right ?. Well, the most negative is perhaps the viewfinder system, which accustomed to others can be somewhat strange. But in the end I guess you adapt, just like the new blog design, right?

PRICE

Of course, the price is one of the important points to deal with, or I would say that almost the most (as is the economy ... ). The Sony A58 is one of the most affordable SLRs right now. Its price is around € 400 on Amazon (sometimes they offer it reduced for less). Not only is it an attractive price, but taking into account the benefits of the A58, few SLR cameras in the market will find that price level.

And if you have come here, it is because you are interested in this camera, even if it is out of curiosity ... or because you have begun to feel that feeling ...

CONCLUSIONS

The Sony A58 is a light and small SLR, therefore very comfortable to transport. Its benefits make it very interesting for the price it has. If you are starting in SLR photography, your compact has become small, you like to photograph car races or sporting events or you are going around the world and your SLR weighs too much in the backpack ... this may be your ideal camera . Although that you decide with the data I just gave you .
