      1. Yeah, and I bet you I could point out every individual scene they shot with it. Decent movie, but some of the WORST color grading I have ever seen in my life. I mean, its cool they used the nex7, but not quite ready for that…

  1. very nice video! Sony Korea is doing a much better promotion job than Sony Japan itself.

    When will a77 get the clear image zoom?????? 🙁

    1. Most of the special effects, like miniature effect, etc, should also work in video from what I remember.

  2. Played with the A57 at the Sony store today, EVF def. not as good as the A65 which is brighter and more detailed. Clear image zoom seem to work somewhat, can’t fully tell reviewing on the LCD but look less washed out than the smart tele. function on the A65

  3. Surprised no one mentioned the interview linked, it is actually quite informative, with a marketing person who actually knows what he is talking about

    1. It is main problem of current times, no one reading, but all writing. In forums usually is identical comments or questions from different people. It means people does not read previous comments… Interviews? They are too long and forum lumpers any way known better than all Sony stuff.
      Who needs to read if there is a video?

  4. Sony: stop pouring money into new camera models devoid of real technical advancements. Who among us is going to sell-off their camera because Sony added another ‘Creative Filter’ or two ? Wake up, Sony ! Your loosing money and you keep doing the same stupid things you did in previous years. Give us the A & E-mount lenses you should have made YEARS ago.

    1. I don’t think Sony is loosing money. Their cameras are selling quite well, especially mirrorless system cameras. Sony does know what they are doing, they just arent aiming quite at the professional market.
      Small, easy to use cameras attract new customers and those that aren’t that much into photography, but just want “better quality”.
      Personally I hate the auto framing idea for portraits, as these features will spoil the person using the camera and no effort will be put into shooting a good picture.

  5. For the first time there is a new feature on a camera that I absolutely loathe= the auto portrait framing. The fact Sony is pimping that like it’s some great innovation- YUCK!

    1. apparently auto portrait framing is not just cropping, it maintain the pixel numbers using same tech as clear image zoom

  6. For all the cannon and nikon buffs that have nothing better to do than come on here and cut down SONY. Hope you will take the time to read the new review of the A77 at camerastuffreview. Yes there full frame cameras can best the A77 in low light(high ISO) but when there is good light they can’t hold a candle to A77

    1. Probably the video was not shot with the a57.
      It is a common practice, to to use the right camera for the job.

      1. the person who directed the video explains how he did to overcome the rolling shutter effect. Read a bit in the comments section below the video.

  7. It is SLT not DSLT, we never had analog SLT cameras with electric view finders and translucent mirrors before Sony made it into a final product we know as SLT-55 which is digital all the way.
    Nice presentation:)
