I’m sooo getting one!
looks like the 10 fps AF is not shutter priority!! Cool!
OK my try for translate:
1. 16.2MP, Max ISO 12800
2. 10FPS WITH AF tracking (unlike speed priority like A550)
3. Advanced Quick Live View function
4. Easy to see, convenience finder (EVF)
5. Twilight mode by combining 6 frames
6. Multi noise reduction by combining 6 frames
7. Auto HDR with exposure difference of 6 stop
8. Quick AF HD movie by utilizing phase detection
9. Swing panorama function
Looking at the specs, it is clearly designed to decimate Nikon D5000 / EOS 550D sales.
I wonder how it will stand up against the Nikon D5100 though.
I’d like to see:
flash sync speed
maximum shutter speed
maximum burst length
minimum ISO
LCD and EVF resolution
in my opinion, A33 and A55 are A mount version of the NEX.
I don’t think it is expected that Nikon will introduce an upgrade of the D5000 at Photokina. What is expected are the D3100, the D95, and perhaps a FF camera.
How will you keep the pellicle mirror clean?
Alex – exactly the same as you keep sensor clean. Not difficult at all 🙂
Except the sensor is protected somewhat by a mirror.
My DSLR has not needed a sensor clean for 6 years, it just requires a very occassional blow off.
A mirror is more delicate and more exposed than a sensor.
Does anyone know a price estimate on the a55 & a33?
manual movie mode with iso, shutter???
900-1000 USD for A55
@acerlim. Sony could make an Ax model which is a true NEX version of A-mount. The body should be like rangefinder (PEN), LCD only.
That’s a promising price, at least for the A33 i hope. Just entered my wish-list.
To me it seems that except price (while double kit goes for the same price) and little size difference A55 is much more better than NEX5.
Only one ground-braking thing is still absent – 720p video at 60fps.
Yep… just bring out 720p 60 fps, and I’m in. It has -everything- else that I want.
