Pros: Fully automatic

Cons: Fully automatic

Opinion: Cheap machine and right to start, but going forward and trying to vary the settings only makes it worse, it should be left automatic. It's perfect to put in your pocket and pull out quickly to capture the moment. The menu can be reached and controlled from the wheel and is cumbersome. You can mount anything with it, with the LA-EA2 adapter I can mount Sony-A and Minolta and it doesn't seem bad to me. I have to say that the battery lasts longer than I thought by reading other reviews; I ended a day on the snow with a half battery and 800 shots.

Pros: the automatic system is precise, excellent basic lens and clear display.

Cons: battery life, slow photo rescue, fully automatic

Opinion: I bought it together with an A58, it is very automatic and it is useless to change the parameters as if it were a reflex, in automatic mode it is amazing, I made phenomenal pictures, better than the A58 (if put in automatic), thanks to the basic optics that works well with the camera body and also thanks to the software that processes the images in an extraordinary way. a good alternative to small compacts that sin in quality not having a sensor and lens as big as this c3.rnpecca the battery, lasts too little, the display has a good definition, but in the sun you see too much reflection.

Pros: sensor, size, weight, recrinabile screen

Cons: Slow Software, white balance, controls, functionality, battery

Opinion: Today machine that is located to just as well, the sensor to tell the truth is the excellent 16mpx Sony offering a very good raw, not managed however like the Nikon D7000 that I own (where it makes better), for the rest of the screen little bright and contrasted , minimum controls, basic functionality, missing remote shutter and flash slide (good flash included); Machine that I recommend to make Belly Street, very indiscreet, you mount everything above (with adapters quite cheap), get at least 1-2 spare batteries, last little.
