Image quality is great. Very quick on focus and shoot. Very light.
Bad Points
Build is poor. Only 6 weeks old, barely put to good use and already developed fault with LCD flip screen. Will now have to send back for repair. Very disappointed.

Having had a Minolta A2 as my previous Camera - I find the electronic viewfinder spot on [especialy with someone who needs spectacles] . I can adjust all settings in th eviewfinder, take photos and review without using the rear screen and putting my specs on. Lovely camera to use, not gone through all the options yet but getting there. I would certainly recommend the camera
Bad Points
Had difficulty trying to find a 18 - 250 all round lens, Clearly not too many camera shops stock the sony range and difficult to find one that keep alternate lenses, got there in the end. Could be due to being a new range

    Summary: Alpha 65

    Pro : High resolution, detailed images. Fast continuous shooting rate. Full-time AF for live view/video

    Cons : Lacks the build quality of the Sony A77

      10 out of 10

    Summary: Not really a DSLR This is a review of the new Sony A65 digital camera. Sony is very careful not to call the A65 a DSLR (digital single lens reflex) and is correct in doing so, because the mirror in the A65 doesn't flip up when a picture is ...

    Pro : Sharp 24MP images, excellent image stabilization, lens profiles in camera firmware

    Cons : Plasticky for a $1000 camera, 1/3 of the light lost to the SLT mirror

    Summary: The A77's cheaper companion, the A65 boasts the same best-in-class resolution 24.3 megapixel CMOS sensor, 1080p HD video at 60 fps, 2.4 million dot OLED viewfinder, and swivel LCD screen as its well-specified brother. If you don't need the better build...

    Summary: The Sony Alpha A65 is the latest SLT (Single Lens Translucent) model to hit the shelves, following in the footsteps of the higher-spec, pricier A77.

    Conclusion: The A65 is very much the A77 with some features trimmed back. This also means the price takes a desirable tumble too as, for the £799 asking price, the A65 has bags on offer. The OLED viewfinder is fantastic (though not perfect), the 10fps burst mode...

    Pro : Many of the A77’s features for less cash, decent image quality from ISO 100-1600, super-fast 10fps burst mode, OLED viewfinder is the best currently available

    Cons : High ISO image quality won’t match up to similar-priced DSLR cameras, the electronic viewfinder won’t suit all and suffers from lag compared to an optical equivalent
