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

Share

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!

Upgrading the server (you can support us). More rumors coming soon!

Share

Dear readers!

First, let me thank you for all your help. You sent me a huge ammount of interesting news, rumors and links! Expect me to post a lot more rumors soon!
I will work 24 hours per day until the Sony announcement on August 24. Ok, let’s make 20 hours per day…. minus 3-4 hours sleep here and there :)
So keep following us…also this weekend!

There is also one more way to help me:
Because of the many visits on SonyAlphaRumors we are currently upgrading our bandwitch capacity and server database performance. It will help me to avoid slow loading pages and/or server crashes. It’s a major cost ($150-$200) for me so feel free to help me if you can and want!

There are mainly two ways to do that:
1) Use the shopping links on the top of the page (inside the camera database). If you want to buy a camera, lens, books or other stuff just start your shopping by clicking the shop name. Once you land on the relative product page you can buy whatever you want (even if it is not the product link you selected to enter the shop) and I will get a small commission from it (usually 1-4%). So if you buy a book with $10 value I will receive 0.4 cent.
2) You can also support my bandwitch costs making a donation. Just click on the button. Donation between $1-$5 are welcome. If you donate more I will pay you a beer when I meet you next time ;)





I hope we can have some exciting time together!
Many Thanks!

Andrea

(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!

In the meanwhile the Sony A500 (Click here) and the Sony A550 (Click here) do get big discounts on amazon!

Mirrorlessforum is currently collecting readers questions to Olympus and Panasonic: “Next month in Germany two big events will take place: The IFA in Berlin (September 3rd – 8th) and the photokina in Cologne (September 21st – 26th). All manufacturers will use these opportunities to present new products. Of course we will visit both events and will have interviews with product managers at Panasonic and Olympus.”
