(SR5) A55 and A33: LCD, EVF and other specs

LCD:
3 inch and 921.000 dot resolution
It has Trueblack tecnology with level gauge, focus point maginification and a gridline.

EVF:
One of the main strenghts is that in the dark the EVF (electronic viewfinfer) displays better images than the OVF (optical viewfinder)
You can use the EVF in video mode (you can’t do that with an Optical viewfinder)
1.44 dots LCD (not OLED sory)
100% coverage / 0.95x magnification

Special features:
Auto HDR (3 frames combined), Multi-frame NoiseReduction in Low-Light situations (it takes 6 frames to combine them), Hand-Held Twilight, 3D sweep panorama. There is also a new automatic mode that can automatically select on of the special features above!

(SR5) Also the Sony A560 and A580 gets leaked!

* 14MP sensor
* ISO range of 100-12800
* 1080i video
* 15 AF points, some of them cross-point
* 5 fps

(SR4) Updated and corrected: 1.44 million dot EVF for the A55 and A33.

REMINDER: Sony will anounce the new A55 and A33 translucent cameras on August 24th!

As you may remember few months ago Sony signed an agreement with Epson to Transfer to Sony Certain Epson Business Assets Relating to Small- and Medium-Sized TFT Liquid Crystal (Source: Epson). According to our sources the new translucent cameras should use a 1.44 megapixel (OLED???) EVF with built-in virtual horizon!
There are two main advantage of using the Translucent+EVF combination:.
1) Phase detection works for stills and video
2) Full time Live View (no mirror blackouts)

Reminder (SR = Sonyrumor):
SR1=probably fake rumor
SR2=rumor from unkown sources
SR3=50% chance it is correct
SR4=rumor from known sources
SR5=almost certainly correct!
