i dun like the a55 interface though.

cannot do local AF using the control pad one. i think need go in the menus.

hopefully i am wrong. if not really no complains. laugh.gif

Added on August 25, 2010, 1:52 pmas for my hopes for a7XX..

to make it simpler.. i hope it pawns the 1DMIV in every aspect..but still maintain the 6-7k price tag tongue.gif

Difficult to explain phase detect AF & contrast AF difference. This link may help:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autofocus

With contrast AF, the camera basically has to hunt and continuously compare contrast to get the best focus. That is why you will see the AF goes from blur to sharp, then become blur again, before finally become sharp and nailing the focus (this is when you hear the focus confirmation beep). This is most obvious in PnS cameras and handphone cameras.

However, with phase detect AF, the AF module can know instantly if the subject is in front or behind the current focus point. It will also know HOW FAR away is the subject from the focus point. This gives the camera added information and enables it to quickly nail the focus. For moving subject, the AF module can even tell how fast the image is going out of phase, and in which direction (going back or going front) hence can predict the focus point.

i read from wiki too. got blur when they got into the technical thingy. rclxub.gif

hmmm..so older SLRs like my dinosaur still uses contrast AF right?

but for phase detect, usually people dun need to select their focus points anymore? unless they wanna do it manually? hmm.gif


OT: managed to borrow an EP1, going to play with it tonight laugh.gif

not really.

a55 is more suitable to take videos IMO.

less light reaching the sensor is certainly an issue here.
