Announced: The New SONY ALPHA SLT-A35

Sony has just announced a new model to its Award winning Translucent Mirror range of inter-changeable lens cameras with the Sony Alpha SLT-A35. Referred to by Sony as a slightly de-specified Alpha SLT-A55, it will most likely be a replacement model for the Sony Alpha SLT-A33 and is likely to be in the shops by August 2011.

Features the new model will include are:
  • 16.2 Megapixel Exmor APS-C HD CMOS Sensor
  • Translucent Mirror Technology for High Speed, Continuous AF with Stills & Movie
  • Up to 7fps in Tele-Zoom High Speed Shooting Mode (Approx 1.4x Magnification)
  • 5.5fps at Full Resolution with Tracking Auto-Focus
  • 15-point Phase Detection AF
  • In Camera 'Picture Effects' for Stills & Movie (includes: Partial Colour Effect, Retro Photo, High-Key, Mono, Toy Camera & Posterisation)
  • Full HD video AVCHD 1080i with rapid, accurate AF tracking
Initial Thoughts:


We Hold Sony's Translucent Mirror Camera's in very high esteem, as they seem to tick all the boxes of what people want from an inter-changeable lens digital camera. They have a huge range of Lenses, Flashguns & other accessories available to satisfy all demands. They are Compact, Lightweight & very easy to use. They are an ideal choice for beginners to enthusiasts, incorporate the more traditional Manual Exposure Modes and also having very advanced Auto Modes that make easy work of all lighting conditions. Useful functions also include Sony's Sweeping Panorama (now with 3D capability), Handheld Twilight, HDR & Partial Colour Effect looks to be a nice new creative feature. 

With Ultra High Speed Auto-Focus, Auto-Focus Tracking for Stills or Full HD Movie & High Speed continuous burst frame rates for stills, the Sony Alpha SLT-A35 can easily record any moving subjects- such as wildlife, sports, kids & pets.
