Not compare in quality at pixel level.....
Example: we both at PC fair, shoot those Kaspersky girls.... his pic came out nice bright and colorful.... mine was dark and dull... even when flash was fired (F42 gun)..... so i copied this setting (me noobie) and fired again.... same dark and dull....
Sigh.... i suppose I shld dust off the A300 again, and relearn everything.... and make use of the new lens in my drybox, the beercan.....
But but.... you now using A65 wor....Â

Â

as other said... try not to copy ppl's setting... is learn how to get a pic similar with them with your own creativity...
you got A77 so what... is like a high end Skyline, but you do not dare to explore more with it's capability... so it is still a car that you drive like others normal drive but just a nicer car... if you dare to explore more, like how to control it better at high speed corners, drift or others skills then it will be good...
as others said you should not jump into conclusion that the camera is not good, i saw a few of them is still using older models but can produce some nice shots... is just the setting...
just try to go out a day or 2, blast your shots everywhere and play around with the manual, shutter or aperture mode... play with the 3 main settings; ISO, Shutter Speed and Aperture (F)...
wat this video...
http://www.youtube.com/embed/Nk78nH3d8hUi was told by 1 pro is just the lens that we use to help us to get a better quality photo but not the composition, as the final photo outcome it is depends on the person that holds the camera... cheers
BTW there is a few session of Sony Alpha still available next week weeks... you can try to go to My Sony to take a look at those... cheap and informative sessions as i had been told, most of the few hours course will only cost you not more than RM50...

even thou im using A65 now...i dun think i am fully utilizing the function at all...just an overpriced camera for meÂ
the 10fps...i dun really use it...full HD 1080 50P video...never use...Manual Focus Peeking mode: havent bought manual lens...
Built in GPS...never turn ON

 ... Object tracking autofocus, never use...
what i use now is just what normal DSLR can do...
you got beercan wor...my telephoto lens is just cheapo 1

dun copy other's setting because diffrent lens/camera have diffrent light transmission...Metering for flash also not same...we Sony use ADI flash...they use TTL flash
haha... what you said i do not use either... haha.... object tracking use a lil when i wanna snap my pup... when i'm in video i prefer to have a lower setting but i could not found it... HD or slightly lower will do...
