Sony Alpha DSLR SLT A35 Digital Camera with 18-55 Zoom Lens, 3D Sweep Panorama, 3.0" LCD, Face Detection

The SLTA35K incorporates Sony's exclusive Translucent Mirror Technology, which replaces the mirror box used in conventional SLR cameras. Although almost stunningly simple and straightforward, this is a profound shift in technological approach that enables SLR-class, high-speed, high-precision, TTL phase-detection autofocusing while using the main sensor for live view shooting and while shooting movies.

It also makes it possible to achieve - in an ultra-compact body - high-speed autofocusing during live view and movie shooting, high-speed continuous shooting and other features that have been difficult to realize on SLR cameras of the past.
