the sony a57 slt is the last of an extraordinary breed of day-to-day camera at an incredible price. a very high quality body, metal lens mount, top notch dials and buttons and a super useful pull out, swivel, swing round screen. marry that to 16mp, full time live view even through the great evf viewfinder, battery life of over 1,000 shots between charge (achieved by using the evf only and not the screen), inputs/outputs for remote/dc/hdmi/mic and you have the basis for a prosumer camera outfit that any photographer would be proud to own and use. attach a top quality modern lens from the sony/carl zeiss range (what ever you do don't use the poor standard 18-55 kit lens supplied/available) or add an m42 adaptor and choose from hundreds of fully manual prime secondhand glass (from £25 to £250) and you are ready to get to grips with making beautiful photographs. one of my favourite lenses for the a57 is the wide angle sigma 10-20 f3.5 (about £450). for video users, this is gem with auto or manual focus and great overall control of your movies. the last of a breed of camera where quality oozes from every pore of the a57, now replaced by a plastic mount non-swivel screened and compromised a58 that has just crammed too many pixels onto its sensor for its own good. if you can lay your hands on an a57, just buy it, attach some great glass and away you go david bailey!Read full review
