Don’t let life pass you by. Capture fast action that other cameras miss thanks to Sonys Quick AF Live View and its accurate display of your subjects movements. You can also take in the landscape with 3D Sweep Panorama mode and harness gorgeous details in dark scenes with Handheld Twilight and Multi-Frame NR modes. Want to shoot video in the same quality as some major TV networks? This model records Full HD 1080/60i movies that look fantastic on your compatible HDTV. Finally, the 3.0″ (diag.) LCD is tiltable, allowing for easy framing of extra low or high-angle shots. FEATURES: 16.2 megapixels; amazing pictures – You get incredible detail and gorgeous enlargements. Thanks to the APS-C sensor size and Sonys Exmor APS HD CMOS technology, the camera achieves high resolution with no penalty in low-light sensitivity or sensor noise. Quick Auto Focus Live View – Unlike competing cameras, the DSLR-A580 is just as responsive in Quick Auto Focus Live View mode as in optical viewfinder mode. That’s because, unlike the others, the A580 uses the same “phase detection” auto focus for Live View as for the optical viewfinder. While other Live View systems are severely restricted, Sony’s performs superbly any time-even if you’re shooting handheld or chasing after moving subjects like kids or pets. Multi-frame NR – Experience incredible low-light shooting without a flash. The camera captures six images in a fraction of a second. Combining the data from all six, it creates a single image with a reduction in noise equivalent to two additional steps of ISO sensitivity. Sensitivity selectable up to ISO 25600. (Recommended for still subjects.) Sweep Panorama mode – Capture expansive landscapes automatically. Press the shutter and sweep vertically or horizontally. The camera does the rest, continuously shooting images and stitching them together. Up to
