Quality: Close to top level DSLR.Why you'd buy the Sony SLT-A77: big, big 6000×4000 pixel stills; 12fps ability; terrific movie mode; top drawer exposure modes; you want to explore high end photography without the tech tangles of a high end camera (like t...
Ultra fast performance, Intuitive operation, classtopping specification
EVF not for everyone, slow startup and relatively poor battery life
The Alpha A77 is a fantastic piece of kit that's dripping with a host of features to keep the serious photographer happy. The OLED EVF is the best example we've ever seen, allowing you to just get on and shoot and not be irritated by it. There'll be ti...

Abstract: The other guys should be worriedWhen 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-de...

So the Alpha A77 may not be a DSLR, but that fact shouldn't deter anyone seeking a versatile interchangeable-lens camera from checking it out. The sum of its parts is a "not a DSLR" to get very excited about, as it seems to cover more ground than any ...
Abstract: First impressions are that the NEX-7 and SLT-A77 are definitely going to garner lots of interest among enthusiasts. I like that Sony is fearlessly forging ahead with using the APS-C large sensor and there’s no hint of going backward with using sma...
Abstract: 24.30MegapixelsSony Alpha (Minolta A) mount3.0 inchLCDReview Summary: Making a major leap in the camera market, the Sony A77 reaches into pro territory, able to capture 12 frames per second with a 24.3-megapixel camera that feels great and handles like...
Abstract: I'll put aside the question of image quality for the moment, since I am not commenting directly on this until I can test a full production A77. But I have no hesitation in saying that the A77's three year newer sensor is bound to trump that of the A900 at higher ISOs, say above 800. At lower ISOs it may be a push, but based on some very informal first impressions I think that we'll find tha..
When we reviewed the original SLT, the SLT-A55, at the tail end of 2010, we were impressed by how well thought-out its operational ergonomics were, given the newness of its key technology. Full-time live view mode was (and still is) addictively useful...
Abstract: Once Canon and Nikon got themselves established at the top end of the 35mm SLR market, it's been very hard to make any impact on their shares of this business. Many have tried and failed – Contax, Leica, Minolta, Olympus and Pentax. Olympus had a good go ...

A well-designed camera that's enjoyable to shoot, partly thanks to a great viewfinder, the fixed-mirror Sony Alpha SLT-A77V bests the competition with features like a cleverly articulated display, built-in GPS for geotagging, and very good 1080/60p video
There are some annoying omissions in the A77V's feature set, including odd limitations for raw and video shooting, plus battery life is subpar
The Sony Alpha SLT-A77V is an excellent, well-designed camera for deep-pocketed amateurs; it nevertheless has a few limitations that may make it impractical for professionals....
