Full Aperture

I take a lot of pictures as sporting events, so I decided to buy the Sony Alpha SLTA55VL when I was on Amazon.co.uk a few weeks ago because it got great reviews and it had the continuous fps feature that I needed. I have to be honest that I didn’t know if my expectations were too high or not, but luckily for me, it has been everything that I wanted and more.

Of course, I needed the continuous fps feature to be excellent because that is the main reason why I bought the Sony Alpha, and I have definitely not been let down in the least. I set it to take ten pictures at a time and am very impressed with how they stay as sharp as they are when I’m only taking a single shot. The other thing that makes this feature great is that it responds very quickly the moment that you push the button for it to start taking the pictures.

The picture quality was as good as I expected it to be, but what has really impressed me since the first day that I received the Sony Alpha in the mail is how great the videos come out. The full HD videos look so good on my television that I find myself shooting more videos than pictures at times. I shot a lot of videos on my family’s recent beach vacation and the water and sky came out better than any videos I have ever shot in my life. Very cool underrated feature.

There is nothing to be considered a con as far as the camera is concerned, in my opinion, but I am surprised that they didn’t include a battery that can last a bit longer than this one does. It almost feels that this was overlooked during the creation of the camera because most cameras in this category come with much better batteries. I won’t take points away for that, though, because I like the camera way too much.

I highly recommend the Sony Alpha to anyone who wants a camera that has the ability to take consistently fantastic pictures and that is very easy to use. It is one of those electronic items that you know you are going to love from the very first day that you own it.
