Sony Alpha DSLR-A350 Digital SLR Camera 2 Lens Kit with 18 - 70mm Lens & 55 - 200mm f/4 - 5.6 Telephoto Zoom.

Sony Alpha DSLR-A350 Digital SLR Camera 2 Lens Kit with 18 - 70mm Lens & 55 - 200mm f/4 - 5.6 Telephoto Zoom. Features

• 14.2 MP Super HAD CCD: The highest pixel resolution in its class (as of January 2008), for spectacular image detail for making big prints and tight crops. An advanced APS-size CCD imager developed by Sony expands dynamic range and minimizes noise more effectively for clear, sharp photos
• Live Preview of Your Subject: The DSLR-A350's Live Preview mode links you and your subject on a large 2.7" LCD screen, for a familiar point-and-shoot style - with super-quick AF response and accurate exposure control to help you catch the perfect moment
• Tiltable 2.7" Clear Photo LCD Plus Screen: A large built-in screen with 2-way angle tilt provides a sharp, clear view of your subject and tilts up or down for low-angle or high-angle monitoring in situations where you want a child-level or overhead shot
• Continuous Shooting While Viewing: The DSLR-A350 lets you shoot continuously at up to 2 frames per second while you see your subject in the large 2.7" LCD viewfinder, so you never lose track of the action. In JPEG mode, you can shoot up to the limit of your flash memory card
• Smart Teleconverter 2X Zoom: At the touch of a button you can zoom in electronically on your subject, reproducing pixels on a 1:1 basis with no degradation in picture quality. One touch zooms in at 1.4X, the second touch advances to 2X zoom - creating the 35mm equivalent of a 200mm telephoto effect
• Expanded ISO Sensitivity: A broad sensitivity range from ISO 100 to ISO 3200 enables the DSLR-A350 to capture beautiful color images even in very dim light - with High ISO Noise Reduction technology that reduces picture noise artifacts at high-sensitivity ISO 1600 and ISO 3200 settings
• Super SteadyShot In-Camera Image Stabilization: Because image stabilization is built into the DSLR-A350, every lens benefits by an advantage of from 2.5 to 3.5 exposure steps. This allows you to shoot effectively with minimum blur even in low light without flash
• Bionz Image Processor: The "brain" of the a (alpha) DSLR-A350 is the advanced Sony Bionz Image Processor, using hardware-based Large Scale Integrated (LSI) circuitry to enhance images with rich tonal reproduction, improved white balance and exposure control & expanded D-Range Optimizer capabilities
• 1200-zone Evaluative Metering: Information from the image sensor dedicated to Live View is divided into 1200 zones of luminance and RGB color information. In addition D-Range Optimizer technology contributes to judge the scene and then determine the optimum exposure
• Dynamic Range Optimizer: To improve results with backlit subjects and recover details hidden in shadows or lost in glare, the DSLR-A350 provides Dynamic Range Optimizer at two levels: Normal DRO, to improve detail using standard gamma curves for fast shot-to-shot response time, or Advanced DRO
• Anti-Dust Technology: Changing lenses in a DSLR can allow dust to enter the camera - so to keep the CCD imager cleaner for better pictures, the DSLR-A350 utilizes both static-free anti-dust coating on the CCD filter and anti-dust vibration that automatically shakes the CCD
• Auto Pop-Up Flash: The camera flash automatically pops up and fires when needed, to help first-time DSLR photographers shoot more effectively. Auto Pop-up works in Auto mode and some scene selection modes; Flash is cancelled in Landscape, Sport or Sunset modes
• Eye-Start Autofocus System: It begins precision autofocus adjustments the moment you raise the camera to your eye - so unlike some DSLR cameras that don't start focusing until the shutter button is half-pressed, the Sony DSLR-A350 never slows down your ability to catch fast action
• 9-Point Center Cross AF Sensor: A fast focus motor and improved focus control help bring images into sharp definition more quickly, with predictive focus control that automatically calculates the position of a fast-moving subject
• Scene Selection Modes: Along with auto exposure, the DSLR-A350 gives you scene selection modes to optimize camera performance for Portrait, Landscape, Macro, Sports, Sunset and Night Portrait/Night View situations
• Creative Style Settings: To express your creativity and personal taste, you can adjust contrast, saturation and sharpness settings for any of 8 finishing styles - including Standard, Vivid, Portrait, Landscape, Night View, Sunset, B&W and Adobe RGB modes
• Index and Slide Show Display: To quickly review your photos, the DSLR-A350 can display 4, 9 or 25-frame index views - or present automatic slide shows with fade-in/fade-out effect
• High-Resolution Thumbnails for PhotoTV HD Viewing: The DSLR-A350 automatically creates high-resolution thumbnail images for viewing on Sony's BRAVIA HDTV in optimized PhotoTV HD mode, with image format adjustable for standard 3:2 or widescreen 16:9 display
• Function Guide Display: On-screen menus are intuitive and easy to use & a simple Camera Function Display can be activated & operated with one hand using the "Fn" (Function) button and controller button to adjust Flash mode, Autofocus mode, White Balance, Metering mode, AF area and D-Range Optimizer
• Stamina Battery Power: In optical viewfinder mode, you can take up to 750 shots on a fully charged NP-FM500H InfoLITHIUM battery - and you'll be able to see about how much power remains in percentage increments, so you can keep shooting in confidence
• High-Capacity Media Options: For conveniently storing and sharing your images, the DSLR-A350 accepts CompactFlash Type I/II media and optional Memory Stick PRO Duo media
