Dear readers, finally we know when exactly Sony will announce the A55, A33 , A560 and A580 cameras!
At 5-6am London time Sony will announce the cameras. I will not sleep that night and you can follow all the updates previews and news on SonyAlphaRumors. I am really excited and you?
I received reports from people that tested the A55 and the A33. They confirmed that those cameras are way better than the current hotseller…the Canon 550D
And those guys know what they are talking about…

thanks ! I will buy a pillow for you 😉
By the way, do they have speak about shutter noise ? Is it same as NEX or better like DSC-R1 (if you know… ^^) ?
A33 bayonet 😉 http://www.thehdblog.net/a33.jpg
Hope to hear also something about the successor of the A700 and new FF Cams.
The A55, A580 will be good cams and I think they will be able to hit the Canon and Nikon in the low segment.
But there are some very important functions missing so that I will not buy this cams and Sony to have nothing in the upper level to hit Canon or Nikon.
But 550D does 24P
the new alphas don’t
I can forgive anything if it had 24P…..
Without 24P it’s unforgivable….
@Mackie: We don’t know if the new Alphas do 24p or not yet.
Hi, then you say “I received reports from people that tested the A55 and the A33. They confirmed that those cameras are way better than the current hotseller…the Canon 550D!” can you tell us in what way? like, ISO, picture qauility, video… or is that all they said?
thanks – R.D
They tested autofocus and image quality!
Really tearing into the details on how the a55/a33 work will be interesting. Not really desirable to me as a camera, but fascinating nonetheless. And the a5xxblah? Yay more entry-level crap!
I am really happy to read this.
For the longest time, the battle has always been between Nikon and Canon. And it’s not always about functionality and image quality. Instead, it’s mostly fanboys talk.
Finally, we see some truly interesting DSLR products: real breakthroughs like the small & lightweight A55 that can provide 10 fps!
The only thing Sony needs to do is to give their lens line-up a major shake-up.
after Sony released A33/55 which is going to beat Canon’s 550D or 50D, i think Canon will release its rival.
