Sony A300 Front View

The Sony A300 is Sony's third and final entry level DLSR announced for 2008. A bargain high speed Live View camera, it's packed with one of the industries best 10.2mp image sensors, a tilting and variable angle 2.7" LCD, industry leading Super Steady Shot in-body image stabilization, Eye Start auto focus sensors, anti-static/anti-dust CCD cleaning, and more.

This camera is punch number three from Sony in the onslaught of the entry level market, and boy did they really came out swinging! The A300 carries over the same sensor and and general performance as the A200, but with more of the extra goodies from the A350. Currently the A300 is priced at $699.00 (USD) which includes a 18-70mm kit lens, and this little camera just may be the best bet of all three. Or is it? Please read further!

Introduction

- Experiencing PMA was a real treat although I can say that the majority of the time I spent was dedicated to the Sony booth, namely the Alpha DSLR counter. I went to the Tamron booth and to the Sigma and Lowe-Pro booths as well, but those visits were very brief in comparison, with Tamron coming second to Sony. In retrospect, I believe it was the best way to spend the day. I could have gone another day and gathered more information, but I wanted to get a report up here as soon as possible on the cameras, lenses, and philosophical direction of Sony.

Sony Announces Alpha A300 and A350 Live View DSLRS

As expected at today's PMA press conference, Sony has announced two brand new DSLRS, the Alpha A300 and A-350.

A300

Sony aggressively enters 2008 with a new DSLR, and today it announces two more. The 14.2-megapixel Alpha A350 and 10.2 megapixel A300. These are also Sony's first entries in the Live View technology category, which promises to be the best way to resolve this technology to date on any DSLR brand.

Sony sounds off in 2008- A200, A300, A350, and two great looking lenses!

Been waiting for this for a while, have us? And as many can now see, Sony is really on the move. While Sony still has more to introduce this year, it looks like they are scoring a shutout so far. It isn't over yet folks.
