Sony’s implementation of Live View on the A350 is unlike other makers Live View but is similar in many respects to that employed in Olympus DSLRs. However a downside is the large screen has a mediocre 230,000-dot resolution so looks a little course but it’s bright and clear in most lighting conditions. It doubles as a large information display when not being used for Live View and an orientation sensor ensures the information always the right way round as well, so that’s neat. And that’s because the camera also has Live View. The A350 sports a high resolution 14.2-megapixel sensor at its core that sits upon a CCD-shift platform to allow both anti shake (called Super Steady Shot) and sensor cleaning features, which vibrate the sensor on that moving carriage when the camera is switched on and off.Īnother standout feature is the camera’s large 2.7-inch LCD, which can be flipped out and tilted away from the body for viewing as a waist level finder for over the head type shots. (Pocket-lint) - Sony has marched on with its Alpha range of DSLRs introducing what now seems to be a full set of cameras from the budget to the top, enthusiast, market with the Alpha 200, Alpha 300, Alpha 350 and of course the Alpha 700 the A350 marks the mid-point in the range.
