Sony is snapping at the heels of Canon and Nikon, and with the DSLR-A900, Sony give its rivals a good old nip. This is a very good high-end DSLR that will please many users. That said, we think some potential buyers might be put off by the lack of one...
Sony’s latest offering is a stunner. At low ISO sensitivities it delivers images that are every bit as crisp and detailed as those from Canon’s EOS-1Ds MkIII and Nikon’s D3, but at a greatly reduced cost. We found the a900 for £1794 on o...
High resolution; in-body image stabilisation; good viewfinder; great accessory system; 24-megapixel, full-frame sensor; three custom-setting slots on the mode dial; two Bionz image processors
Can't lock focus-point selector; preview button much too easy to hit accidentally; some below-par aspects of performance; no live view; loud mirror; slow autofocus and single-shot speed; photos get noisy and mushy starting at ISO 1,600
A good first try at a professional-level camera, the Sony Alpha DSLR-A900 has the high resolution but lacks some of the performance and usability you expect from a model in its price range ...
Sonys top-of-the-range DSLR may defy convention in its design and feature set, but its capture performance is closer to great white hope than white elephant....
Abstract: Sony had promised to deliver a full-frame camera at the launch of its first APS-C DSLR, and prototypes had been on public display long before the A900 was formally introduced. While we believed the sensor would most likely be a 24.6 million-pixel Cmos ...
Abstract: The Sony Alpha 900 has a staggering 24.6Mp sensor and has the accolade of offering the largest resolution of any full-frame D-SLR – even beating the £5000 24.5Mp Nikon D3X – quite a feat, especially when you consider the relatively low price. The ISO r...
Well done Sony. The firm’s first pro-spec DSLR has the image quality and resolution to match the very best DSLRs from the established brands and at a competitive price. True, it can’t match the high ISO performance or shadow detail smoothness of the Ni...
The Sony Alpha A900 is a late entrant to the DSLR market but it's wasted no time in making its mark.It has three APS-C sized DSLRs straddling the low-end to enthusiasts market, and now its fullframe A900 goes head-to-head against pro models from Nikon ...
The resolution wars are officially over – and Sony has won. The A900 has the most pixels of any SLR camera on the planet (this week, at least) and certainly knows how to use them. Image quality is top notch for daytime shooting, and there more than...
Cheer up, Sony! You’d hardly think the same company that cranks out fun-loving PlayStations and razor-thin compacts could be responsible for this po-faced product. There’s no Live View, no movie mode and no face detection, and the chunky A900...
A serious tool for serious photographers with seriously large memory cards (and wallets to match). The biggest, certainly, but with the launch of Canon’s EOS 5D Mark II, perhaps not quite the best pro SLR out there.Sony Alpha 900 is tagged with Sony...
