2nd Generation
Translucent Mirror Design
Other DSLRs can shoot. Or they can focus with the speed and
precision of Phase Detection AF. They cannot do both at once.
Sony changes all that with the award-winning Translucent Mirror
Technology system. It directs light to both the image sensor and
the Phase Detection AF sensor simultaneously.
24.3 MP; best-in-class resolution2
You get incredible detail and gorgeous ments thanks to a
24.3 megapixel sensor. It's the highest resolution among APS-C
DSLRs, as of November 2012.

12 fps continuous2
The translucent mirror makes it far easier to capture the
decisive soccer kick or your baby at her absolute cutest. Shoots
up to 12 frames per second at full-resolution 24.3 megapixels
with continuous auto focus (AE locked after first frame). This is
the world's fastest shooting speed for interchangeable lens APS-C
cameras, as of November, 2012.
World's first OLED viewfinder
There's never been anything quite like the Tru-Finder™ OLED
electronic viewfinder. For size, speed and brightness even after
sunset, this is a gem. It begins with 2359K dots for amazing
resolution and high contrast ratio for incredible depth. OLED
reduces motion blur to a bare minimum. You can also see the
results of camera adjustments in real time with superb color and
detail.
HD Movies4 at 60p, 60i, or 24p

offer a choice of super-smooth 60p, standard 60i or cinematic
24p, all at Full HD 1920x1080 resolution. AVCHD™ codec delivers
stunning picture quality. MP4 codec offers smaller files for

movies. Enjoy the full expressive potential of Program, Shutter
Priority, Aperture Priority or Manual (P/A/S/M) control in
HD movie mode.
Full-time Phase Detection AF
You get fast, accurate auto focus in every mode—even HD Movie
and Live View—thanks to Sony's exclusive Translucent Mirror
Technology. While Contrast Detection Auto Focus often hunts for
correct focus, Phase Detection AF knows exactly where correct
focus is, and goes straight for it.
Full-Time Live View in LCD or EVF
You can use both the LCD monitor and OLED Electronic Viewfinder
for composing s in Live View. Both provide a
what-you-see-is-what-you-get preview of white balance, focus,
depth of field, exposure and 100% framing accuracy, plus

World's shortest release time lag3
Helps ensure that the image you want is the image you get. Once
auto focus occurs, release time lag is the delay between fully
pressing the shutter release and when the camera actually starts
taking the picture. Long lag makes it harder to capture
fast-moving objects. The Sony A77 boasts the world's shortest
release time lag at only 0.05 seconds.3
Steady INSIDE™ stabilization
Image stabilization reduces blur by compensating for camera
shake. Typical DSLR systems build image stabilization into
selected lenses only. Steady INSIDE™ image stabilization is
built into the camera body itself. You'll reduce blur with every
A lens, including macro and wide-aperture standard zoom
lenses.
