best Sony DSLRs

Video is very clear if you take videos in AVCHD you cannot watch in on compter unless you download Sony picture motion which it is included with the camera so I went to settings and change it MP4 and I watched it in real Player.

Finally, the addition of HD video on top of the stills capability is just frosting on the cake.

Shooting HD movies is easy too.

In AVCHD mode the A35 offers high quality HD video capture at 1920 x 1080 pixels (1080p) at 25/30 frames per second (depending on whether your camera is a PAL or NTSC model), though the files are doubled up to 1080 i at 50/60 fps for HDTV compatibility.

For prior Sony A35 shooters, Dpreview notes: "the changes are subtle - the A37 gains the A57's improved viewfinder optics, and it becomes the only SLT not to shoot 60p video - instead offering 60i and 24p as its highest frame rate options, both at 24Mbps.

It takes great photo easy and the video is good enough, not perfect, but still better than any Canon or Nikon in this price range.

You won't miss live view when focusing manually and to anyone previously using an APS-C DSLR the viewfinder is still a revelation.

Overall the A580's video mode delivers good quality output that is far better than anything you'd get from a digital compact camera.
