The introduction and availability of the Sony Alpha A380 digital SLR camera make it the successor to the Alpha A350. With the Sony DSLR-A380, a new era begins for the Alpha DSLR camera.
A new design, more modern and clearly more Sony-like, a new user interface and support for the Secure Digital / Secure Digital High Capacity (SDHC) memory card format, which does not come as a surprise. The Sony DSLR-A380 is a 14.2 Megapixel digital SLR featuring an advanced Live View function.
In Sony's case, Live View means no annoying delays, which also goes for the Sony DSLR-A380, thanks to the Quick AF Live View functionality.
The new user interface is refreshing, and novices will more than likely benefit from this.
