Review on Sony Alpha DSLR-A550 14.2MP Digital SLR Camera (Body Only): Professional-grade Imaging Power at Your Fingertips by Amit Amit ᠌

Revainrating 4 out of 5

A good product, I advise you to try it.

For beginners and advanced, this is a great choice. Get great pictures even when using a KIT. Anyone who shoots on AUTO and says that the shots are no better than a soap dish, I can advise such people not to spend money and still buy a soap dish. The high cost of lenses for sony cameras upsets. I advise you to take Carl Zeiss optics 16-80 for everyday use, the shots will be gorgeous.

Pros
  • Very good matrix. High speed shooting. Convenient menu. Not a bad KIT. LiveView with a movable display sometimes helps not to crawl on your belly :).
Cons
  • Loud curtain operation. The impact of the curtain is too strong, as a result, without a good tripod, "shake" often appears, when shooting at night it is very noticeable, you have to suffer to get good shots. Still upset overexposures. if you trust the automation in the A, P, AUTO mode, strong overexposure occurs in the bright sun. I conclude that the "crooked" firmware. If you shoot in RAW or shift the exposure to minus in advance, there is no such problem.

Before that, I used Sonya A100, I immediately felt significant differences for the better.

With its pros. Even with a budget lens, the image quality is good. The camera is simple and trouble-free to operate. Amazing realism pictures. The battery holds a charge well. Its cons: Too heavy for a woman (significant weight gain due to the movable LCD screen)
