With great expectations i had bought this wonderful product, and it did not fail my expectations. First i will tell you about the image quality which was excellent, exceptionally sharp and well exposed shots. The LCD is having a new CMOS sensor with an amazing LCD display with classic Minolta features like Eyestart AF sensor shift image stabilization and the alpha lens mount all in one compelling package. The color capturing capacity is excellent. It has a wireless flash signal for external synchronization, The lens is small and light and delivers decent image sharpness. The battery life was about average Sony's Info lithium technology which allows for an accurate feedback on the charge remaining. It has extensive expose controls. It has plenty of resolutions to make great looking enlargements straight from the camera. With the combination of the new sensor and image processor it offers a good noise reduction and great performance. The menu system is stylish and easy to navigate. High performance vertical traverse shutter. But the button placement is a bit cumbersome. When the USB interface is set to PTP mode it supports direct printing without a computer to Pictbridge compatible photo printers. It focuses faster at all image levels with minimal delays. The auto focusing system uses AF sensors two each horizontal and vertical line sensors. The Image stabilization has been improved a lot and seem to offer three stops of stabilization.

The defects i found was Its massive brick like and complex its much heavier and larger. All in all I'm very impressed by it.
