Single Lens Translucent behaves like a thing that is
cross-bred between DSLR and DSC.
SLT-A37
Anyone who is calculating about upgrading one snapshot
camera to DSLR may want to consider 16.1MP SLT-A37 that is friendly with users
of Sony. In many aspects, it is similar to one of Alpha DSLRs of this firm. But
backplate controllers are also as simple as you will find on compact camera.
Structure of overturning mirror inside provides normal SLR that is created
transparently with power. Therefore, this isn’t SLR about technology, but they
are the things that Sony calls SLT camera (Single Lens Translucent).
This inside change has some advantages. Recording 1,920x1,080-pixel
Full HD video takes place immediately when you press red Record button on the
top piece. On normal DSLR, first of all, we have to wait in Live View mode that
is chosen and its structure of overturning mirror will overturn before
beginning to record.
Secondly Sony declared that transparent overturning mirror
is improved about speed of auto focusing.
There are some other things that we don’t see on most of
DSLR: a LCD screen inclines in the back side although it is modest 2.7-inch
screen, and electronic object-finder is extremely with 1.44 million points.
