The Sony Alpha DLSR-A300 will link photographers to users The Sony Alpha DLSR-A300 is a single lens reflex digital camera designed for photo enthusiasts who are new to DSLR photography.

Priced at US$799 the A300 is a mainstream DSLR camera with swift AF live view.

According to Sony, the A300 makes picture taking faster, easier and more familiar with first-time DSLR users.

  • 740 shots per battery charge
  • 582 grams
  • Dimensions of 130.8 mm x 98.5 mm x 74.7 mm (W x H x D)
  • Massive built-in screen with 2-way angle tilt provides a sharp, clear view of your subject and tilts up or down for low-angle or high-angle monitoring in situations where you want a child-level or overhead shot; zoom in electronically on your subject, reproducing pixels on a 1:1 basis with no degradation in picture quality

What the manufacturer says:

“Mainstream users stepping up to DSLRs are looking for a similar experience to their point and shoot cameras, but without compromise in speed or performance; quick AF Live View gives these new models a familiar shooting style without compromising speed – best for the growing market of first-time SLR users.”

Our comment:

Compared to the previously released Sony A200, the A300 has a 14.6 megapixel resolution. If that matters to you a lot, then you would probably purchase the A300 when it comes out this April. But wait, the Sony A300’s new Live View mode, with a one-of-a-kind mechanism that moves a mirror inside the pentamirror arrangement to point the image at a secondary sensor above the optical viewfinder could also be something to look out for in the Sony A300 DSLR camera.
