The recently launched α55 from Sony Australia, adopts Sony's newly-developed Translucent Mirror Technology, offering outstanding performance for still image and movie recording. Translucent Mirror Technology makes the α55 the world's first camera to maintain continuous phase detect AF when recording Full HD AVCHD... movies (1920 x 1080 / 60i, 50i)[1]. With fast and precise phase detection AF continually tracking subject movement, a subject that moves quickly to or from the camera is kept in focus, even when there is a shallow depth of field. The system uses a fixed translucent mirror that does not need to be raised and lowered each time the shutter is released; light that passes through the lens is simultaneously received by both the image sensor and the auto focus sensor, allowing continuous shooting and focusing at incredible speeds. The result is highly responsive camera performance, with world's fastest continuous shooting with continuous AF at up to 10 frames per second on the α55.For more information visit: www.sony.com.au
