Sony Alpha SLT-A58K (SAL1855) Digital SLR Camera

this camera is a way better performer in low light performance and noise level when comes to comparison with dslr's of other two heavy weight companies (nikon and canon).... i've tested the camera performance with my friend's nikon d3200 and my dad's 600d and this camera survived much better and the auto focus lock technology is just awesome..... nthis camera performs much much faster auto focus with the kit lens when compared to other cameras in this range...nand the digital/ electronic viewfinder helped me a lot obtaining the best photo as this way what you see is what you get specially you can do all the settings with your eye on the view finder and it gonna work like you are in live view mode... nfeatures that easily overcome canon 600d , nikon d3200 and 650dn1) much better low light performance n2) electronic view findern3) much more color depth and dynamic range with 20 mpx n4) a in camera sensor shift image stabilizationn5)great noise reductionn5)much more effects and cool things inbuilt n6)great battery back up n7)continious and faster auto focus n8)lock on auto focusn9)much light weightn10)great movie modennonly thing that is quite backward compared to those cameras is n1)a bit short screen of 2.7 inch and low pixel density compared to 3.0 inch higher pixel densityn2)no battery grip availablen3)lens are little costlier nnso most of the people cares about photo and that definitely gives a thumbs up to slt a58k compared to those above mentioned cameras.. go for this one.. thank you and hit like please

This camera is an amazing piece of equipment by Sony. nnI am personally an amateur shutter bug and always wanted to own a SLR and move to the next level. Being a point n shoot user for many years I finally decided to get my hands on one of the bad boys of photography.nnInitially I was confused between canon 600D, nikon 5100 and sony a58. I ruled out Nikon 5100 as the detailing, colour ratio and depth is not crisp as compared to the other two. the deal was between cannon and sony. After a lot of reasearch I went with sony. The reason being it is a new product. (April 2013) technologically more advanced at lesser price.nnThe picture quality on this one is mind blowing. One has to see to believe it. The features lists are endless. I liked the sweep panorama mode, you wont miss any single corner of your object that you're shooting whether it is landscape or mountains or whatever. The lock on auto focus while recording is amazing. Also noise level in high ISO is negligible unlike 600D. The night photography is commendable on this. The focus motor both inbuilt and the lens mount works in an instant. I love the blurring effect in the off focus background. nOne more thing that motivated me to buy a58 is the fact that its a new product as compared to Cannon 600D which is almost 3 year old. Cannon can decide to discontinue 600D any time now and launch an upgraded version.nThanks to sony for this beast of a machine.
