Hmm… Any rumors on lenses for Sony A Mount?

gagal pertamaxxx XD

The only thing that worries me on the A77 is the ISO above 400. Tests have showed that it have a lot of noise, I hope they will improve that on the final software version!:)

I took this the other day on my a850. Apparently it has “terrible, unusable high ISO” according to internet experts.

This is ISO4000, f2.8 and 1/30s under heavy tungsten lighting. Shot RAW. No noise reduction. Standard LR sharpen of +15

Looks pretty damn useable to me. And consider the size of the whole 24mp image.. it’s ENORMOUS! See the size of the eye crop in the context of the whole image. You could half the size and still have a huge 12mp image where the noise will be almost invisible. Tons of detail – eyelashes, skin texture etc.

It goes to show that camera shake, your object moving or bad focus are much more important than ISO noise.

The a77 will be at least this good – 3 years of technological advancement.

Andrea,

when are you going to post something about upcoming FF sensors resolution and new A-mount FF glasses?

Thanks!

I am getting sick of hearing about the ‘Canon’ pellicle mirror. This is not 1966, the situation is different now. Sony takes the light and directs it where it needs to go and electronically manipulates it to achieve great results. Again, this is not 1966 people! Things can be done now that weren’t possible 40 or even 20 years ago.Do you seriously think that a giant manufacturer of imaging sensors cannot determine what a successful imaging sensor is? Do you not think that Sony knows a little something about megapixels and sensor construction? 24mp is better nowadays than 16mp, as far as image quality goes, unless that is, you don’t care about a little thing called image detail.The 24mp will have more detail,this is most important. 16mp is good, but 24mp is better. Sony would not build a 24mp sensor just for the heck of it, they know it can work. And for what it’s worth,12mp jpegs, and 6mp jpegs are selectable in the a77 menu. Maybe a cRaw will be available in the future.

I said it once, and Ill said it again…TRUE PHOTOGRAPHERS WANT A OPTICAL VIEWFINDER…LED VIEWFINDER has less detail and takes up more battery. The a55 and a33 sold only because it was something knew and it got the attention to a new market.I want to rely on my EYE and not in a LED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!…Photography doesn’t feel the same with out an OVF!!!!
An EVF is o.k in a camcorder, but not in a DSLR!!!!! Here in the tv studio we are o.k with looking at a EVF in a Camcorder, but thats why we like DSLRS its because of his OVF.!!!!!!!

theonlinephotographer is lost in the 70´s ….a verbose babossa ! sony is kicking so many but´s it´s sad for the competition, not only with cameras – the new binoculars and the oled head mounted display – go sony go !

The OnlinePhotographer is recycling archaic arguments against translucent mirrors and evfs as if they are unproven suspect technologies. Rather than Canon quietly smiling with glee waiting for Sony to fail they most likely are quaking in their pants.
