If you want to graduate from using a digital camera to using an SLR, the DSLR-A350 is just what you need! This Alpha range camera from Sony includes all the features of the A300, and has a 14-megapixel sensor and the LiveView function.
It's easy to set up your photos on this camera, because just like a digital camera, it has a 2.7-inch screen for you to monitor your shot before taking it. It also tilts up and down to allow you to see the shot perfectly.
The DSLR-A350 has a high-resolution sensor for incredibly precise, sharp images, and a BIONZ processor to improve image quality and reduce noise effects. The sensor itself has a double anti-dust system for increased longevity, so your shots will be as bright and rich in colour for years to come -- even in low lighting conditions, thanks to the high sensitivity of 3200 ISO.
The camera comes complete with an 18-70mm lens, and because it's compatible with Sony and Konica Minolta lenses, the DSLR-A350 is as versatile as it is reliable, guaranteeing outstanding quality for all your shots in all kinds of conditions. It's not surprising that it won the EISA (European Imaging and Sound Association) prize for best SLR camera 2008.
