Sony launches new entry-level DSLR.
Jan 27th
BILLED as a ‘perfect all-rounder’, Sony has unwrapped a new DSLR called the Alpha 450. Due to arrive in UK shops in February, the 14.2-million-pixel Alpha 450 is claimed to allow equivalent ISO sensitivity up to ISO 12,800 and to be capable of a continuous burst rate of ‘seven frames per second’. ‘The powerful Bionz image processor enables highspeed continuous shooting of up to 5fps (maximum approx fi gure). In Speed Priority mode (with AF and AE set at the start of the burst), this increases to an amazing 7fps… More than enough to catch sports and fast-moving action with ease,’ claims Sony. Sony UK claims that the Alpha 450 is a ‘versatile, easy-to-use choice for step-up photographers’.
Features include Live View and a 2.7in LCD screen with Manual Focus Check, which allows the photographer to preview the image prior to capture. Also on board the 520g newcomer is Sony’s SteadyShot Inside anti-shake correction and an Auto HDR (High Dynamic Range) option designed to ensure the capture of bright highlights and dark shadow detail in the same frame. The Alpha 450 measures around 137×104x81mm (excluding protrusions). A UK price has not been released
