This combines with a high contrast, antiāreflective coating to make the screen easily visible even in bright outdoor light. Enjoy beautiful images and razor-sharp responses At the heart of the Ī±230 is the fast BIONZ processor, which takes a fraction of a second to handle the huge amount of digital information coming in from its powerful sensor. This ensures that details are reproduced with absolute clarity, and noise is almost completely eliminated. Along with its other imageāenhancing technologies, the Ī±230 comes with Smart DāRange Optimiser to help produce natural results from high contrast scenes. With perfect attention to detail, the Ī±230 even shakes its sensor every time you shut down to dislodge any dust particles that could appear in a future picture.

The Ī±230 hugely reduces the likelihood of camera shake with its SteadyShot INSIDE feature, which works with any lens.

If you need a camera that takes extremely sharp and vivid photographs, that is also easy to handle then this is your camera! You will find the process of manual photography so much easier with it on board help system, this helps you understand what each setting does and what it does to your picture. The lens (mm) is perfectly suitable for a beginner or even a professional, it has reasonable zoom capabilities and also very strong focus. Using the DSLR and its features will enable you to create your own personal photographs and not just holiday snap quality, actually using the focus and zoom correctly for the environment you are in, this will make your pictures look a whole new world better and will show more talent in your work. This is why I would recommend this camera to someone who is maybe starting an A level photography course of some sort. Looking more at the settings now, lets say you're not that into photography at this point and are still learning the ropes, in which case you can use a number of settings to achieve amazing pictures by doing nothing complicating, such as (Auto) this is a common setting which is on pretty much every camera (Apart from SLR's) and is used so that the camera does everything for you, E.g. setting up the armature and ISO, also focus and shutter speed. (There will only be auto focus if you set your camera to AF not MF) There are also other settings which are more relevant to where you might be such as: Portrait, Landscape, Macro, Sports Action, Sunset, and Night Port./View. Also there are settings named as "P", "A", "S", and "M" these are for more manual settings where you might like to keep a particular setting (For more experienced photographers) One of the more fun features is the choice of colour scheme (Theme) of the camera, pick from black, pink, white and light brown. Also being able to save your pictures to a Sony Pro Duo memory stick or an SD card, and be able to choose where they are saved) Another thing people like to know is how heavy a camera is, and honestly this is not very heavy, easy to carry around or keep around your neck with the provided Sony Alpha strap. I can promise you this is a very good camera which allows the owner to create amazingly sharp and vivid photos as soon as they get it out of the box! //////////////////// FIRST COME, FIRST SERVE!!!!
