[REVIEW-SONY a77 DSLR]

Sony Alpha A77 review
Review units for Sony's long-anticipated replacement for the Alpha A700 , the Sony Alpha A77, have finally made it to UK shores, although the worst flood disaster to strike Thailand for 50 years has hampered the camera's official release into the market.

First off let me say that I have been with Olympus since the beginning starting with the E500 and currently use the E5. I have never owned another DSLR other than Olympus. On a whim I purchased a Sony Nex 3 because I was so intrigued with it.
Pros:
- Easy navigation, fast focus, tilting LCD, awesome EVF with level, tons of lens choices, superior IQ with low noise levels, build quality, ability to change focus modes quickly
- I could go on and on with this
Cons:
- None
- time will tell

Cons:

- Comparatively strong noise reduction at medium and high ISO settings
- Very noisy raw files at high ISO settings
- Little control over high ISO noise reduction in JPEG mode ('auto' or 'weak'
- Limited control in 12 fps continuous...

Sony Alpha 77 review
Long rumoured and highly anticipated, the Sony Alpha 77 replaces the four-year-old Alpha 700 as the company's flagship APS-C-format digital camera. But make no mistake: while both are classed as enthusiast level models, the two are virtually unrecognisable as siblings.

Pros:
- Almost Perfect
Cons:
- Everybody has flaws

Camera Test: Sony's A77 Is The New King of APS-C DSLRs
When we named Sony's Alpha 55 Camera of the Year last year , we didn't expect that the company would come along with a model like the new Alpha 77. In addition to the benefits we loved in the A55, such as full-time phase-detection autofocus even when recording video, Sony has added a slew of...
