The A850 also incorporates Steady Shot INSIDE in-camera image stabilizer which actually shifts the image sensor to compensate for camera shake without sacrificing image quality. Additional features include Dual BIONZ imaging processors for continuous shooting at up to 3 fps, an ultra-bright glass Pentaprism viewfinder, 3.0" Xtra Fine LCD display and HDMI output. Less
