Cameralabs tested the new Sony A33 camera:”for now can assure you the movie experience is the closest we’ve found to a consumer camcorder yet“. The final review will be posted soon but you can already see some interetsing tests.
Meanwhile Fotopolis posted a complete A33 review. Those are the pros and cons:
+ Pivotally mounted LCD
+ AVCHD 1080i HD movie with a fast AF
+ 7 shooting fps
+ Interesting exposure modes, including 3D panoramas and HDR
+ Image stabilization inside the body
+ Low noise for high ISO
+ Excellent reproduction of detail
+ Natural color reproduction
+ Quite good ergonomics
+ SDXC + card support, and MS Pro Duo
– Semi-transparent mirror, limits the access of light to the sensor
– At the expense of optical electronic viewfinder
– Body made of average quality plastics
– Cannot record movies in Single AF mode
– Relatively high price

“Bad ergonomics” 😉
wrong translation 😉
“+ niezła ergonomia” means “quite good ergonomics”
WDYM, “Inability to shoot in Single AF mode”? Did they overlook the AF-S option?
Translation problem 🙂
“brak możliwości filmowania w trybie AF Single” means “cannot record movies in Single AF mode”
“+ Bad ergonomics”
Actually in polish it is on the contrary: “+ Not bad ergonomics”. So, bad Google translation 🙂
Relatively high price? Relative to what?
Sony need to drop the price,
