Live view functions on your Sony camera

byalanbweaver Feb 10, 2009
10 Helpfuls 11 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Fairly uncomplicated, easy to use, good quality images, nice features for beginners
Cons the LCD is awkward as it only comes out vertically, noise in some pictures
Recommended it? Yes

One item that sets this 10.2-megapixel Sony Alpha DSLR-A300K is its live-view functions.  One nifty feature is that it provides flexible live-view LCD works in real time. The list price is $550 (with a 18mm-to-70mm lens, you can easily find better prices).  The camera offers tilt-screen tricks that... Read full review »

Pros Adjustable view finder, Live View
Cons Small USB caonnector
Recommended it? Yes

The tilt view finder with LiveView is a combo no other camera in this price range can match.  Tilt view finder -- up or down -- makes for great pictures of art work or candid shots of unknowing subjects (held at waist level)adjustable viewfinder Read full review »

Cons On camera flash, low light picture quality
Recommended it? Yes

I have always been interested in photography. My problem has been venturing farther into it and becoming serious hobbyist, due to prohibitively expensive equipment and film, not to mention dark room equipment, lab costs, etc. I’ve owned some digital point and shoot cameras, but that’s all they were...
