Boasting 24.3-megapixel clarity and up to 10 fps, the Sony ?65 delivers both
lightning-fast speed and best-in-class resolution for professional-quality
photos that will simply blow you away. Capture the fast-action shots that other
cameras miss thanks to Sony's award-winning Translucent Mirror Technology, plus
choose from three HD movie modes—super-smooth 60p, standard 60i or richly
cinematic 24p—all at Full HD 1920 x 1080 resolution.
And with the world's first OLED electronic viewfinder,
you can even see camera adjustments in real time for the best possible picture.
Experience a revolutionary breakthrough when shooting fast-moving subjects.
By harnessing the power of Sony's Translucent Mirror Technology, the ?65 offers
the precision of Phase Detection auto focus (AF) in all modes—including HD Movie
and Live View—to deliver amazingly crisp HD videos and tack-sharp still photos.
Some DSLRs can shoot. Others can focus with the speed and precision of Phase
Detection AF. The ?65 does both at once. Infused with the latest version of
Sony's award-winning Translucent Mirror Technology, light is directed to the
image sensor and Phase Detection AF sensor simultaneously for ultra-fast
shooting up to 10 fps with continuous auto focus.
