The Sony Alpha A290 is so light, so compact and so easy to use, that even first time DSLR users can experience life as a photo professional thanks to the superb image quality and image enhancing features, such as the Steady Shot Inside. This allows you to keep images crisp and even, by reducing camera shake when shooting handheld. It’s great for atmospheric, low light scenes without flash as well as high zoom shots when you don’t happen to have a tripod handy. Plus the Sony Alpha A290 works with the entire Alpha lens collections, so whatever the situation, that perfect shot is always achievable.
The Sony Alpha A290 has an impressive 14.2 megapixel CCD Sensor to ensure stunning, professional quality photos every time. It provides extra sharp images, even when enlarged, with reduced picture noise to help keep vibrant colours and smooth textures.
With the Sony Alpha A290 there is simply no excuse to not take beautiful images with razor sharp responses. This is due to the BIONZ processor inside the camera which is the key to its lightning fast shooting responses. This powerful processing engine can handle large amounts of digital information from the camera’s sensor, so you can accomplish striking, low noise images, frame after frame.
What makes the Sony Alpha A290 perfect for first time DSLR users is its Onscreen Help Guide feature. It provides simple on screen guidance to assure easy intuitive operation. With a graphic display that successfully demonstrates the effects of setting different camera modes, using sample images as examples, even the most nervous of photography up-graders will be able to excel with this model.
The Sony Alpha A290 is available in stylish and sleek black for £399 at Jessops.
