A budget busting SLR with top notch camera tech
Sony’s powerful A350 has one of the most affordable price tags in the SLR parade.
There’s an impressive 14.4 sensor, but as everyone knows it’s not size, but what you do with it that counts. So you get in-camera SteadyShot system to increase your chances of sharp shots, a tilting 2.7-inch LCD for awkward peering-over-tall person shots and easy-to-use Live View.
For low-light shooting you can quickly set sensitivity up to a mammoth 3200, but over ISO 400 images can be soft and noisy. Although the Sony A350 can be bulky to control, at a lower ISO, it produces cracking images, accurately exposed with great detail.
It’s a winner and leaves other porky SLRs from the veterans Canon and Nikon, sulk in the over-priced shade.
Live view with super-fast responses
Extend your creative options even further with the A350. Enjoy a fresh angle on the world with every shot: the world’s first Quick AF Live View gives you the benefits of fast, accurate autofocus plus live image preview on the tilting LCD screen.
Say no to camera shake
Keep things crisp and even. SteadyShot INSIDE reduces camera shake when you’re shooting handheld. It’s great for atmospheric, low-light scenes without flash as well as high-zoom shots when you haven’t got a tripod handy. And it works with all your a lens collection, too.
Great pictures from any angle
The LCD screen tilts up or down for comfortable viewing in different shooting positions. It’s really useful if you’re not holding the camera close to your eye: for example of you’re shooting above a crowd or crouching down for an interesting viewpoint.
Super-fast shooting that’s always in focus
Don’t let your digital SLR slow you down. Unique to Sony, Quick AF Live View lets you enjoy live image preview without sacrificing the convenience of fast, accurate autofocus and rapid continuous shooting.
Beautiful images, razor-sharp responses
The BIONZ processor inside your a camera is the key to its lightning-fast shooting responses. This powerful processing engine handles large amounts of digital information from the camera’s sensor, delivering beautiful, low noise images, frame after frame.
Pristine images with no dust
Let’s keep it clean. Dust can mean annoying image specks when you’re switching lenses. This ingenious system shakes the sensor to dislodge dust every time you switch the camera off. There’s also an anti-static coating that prevents dust build-up on the sensor
