CNET UK tested the Sony A550 and came to this short conclusion: “Sony’s made some strange design decisions, but it’s a decent dSLR overall“. read the whole review here: http://reviews.cnet.co.uk/digitalcameras/0,39030232,49304956,00.htm
One more review has been made by the polish website fotopolis.pl (Click here for the english google translation)

I love the this rumor forum to death but I am so sick of hearing about the A500 and A550 reviews…
I am looking forward to new firmwares to be released for the upper level cameras and or older series such as A300 and A350
That review is a complete bullshit. I think Sony did not feed them well to write a good review. They are comparing A550 with EOS 50D which is in completely different class and least $500 price difference. They talked about several buttons they did not like in A550..I believe those buttons are important and should be placed as Sony did. If you don’t like, its your problem…stop reviewing Sony. Are they expecting a magnesium allow body in sub $1000 model? can they make it? Is there any other manufacturer does it? Sony has a color problem….My Sony DSLR does not have any color problem at all. I mean when you are writing a review please provide some facts and just do not throw bullshit words to distract new customers. If anyone not familiar with this DSLR, would not buy it. Who else has 7 FPS in that price range. Also in the specification they have showing FPS as 4.3 although it is 5 and 7. Why did they provide wrong information…If they experimented with their copy and still got 4.3, they should have mentioned that. May be they got a bad copy or something else. They must provide company specification sheet and not their own specification sheet made by some CNET UK employee. I strongly suggest not to put link of this type of review in future.
thanks you!!!!
This and the other cnet review both mention bad color. I’ve never seen that in any other review of Sony cameras. Where’d that come from?
