Light focusing tricky
LCD's lack of flexibility
15-point AF system is centrally arranged
Build is a little plasticky
Electronic viewfinder won't suit all tastes
Small LCD screen and light-reflective issues
Limited battery life
No 60/50p movie mode
The EVF looks dim
And the LCD is on the small side
Some pixel fringing between areas of high contrast

Quality: excellent. The shot of the artist was taken in a quick moment, grabbed streetside. Only a little Photoshop fiddling was needed to bring it into line. A very good performance.Why you'd buy the Sony SLT-A37: the price; SLR viewing; auto portrait fu...
The Sony A37 is a compelling entry-level DSLR camera with features, still and video image quality, and overall performance that beat its main rivals. Only the small, low-resolution, non-articulating LCD screen detracts from an otherwise outstanding ca...
Abstract: Let us first take the SLT-A37, this Translucent Mirror Technology camera is another first-step available for those that are curious about DSLRs. Shooting will be a joy with the 1,440,000 dot resolution in the electronic viewfinder, and how would we mainta...

A good option if you're looking for something fast with a viewfinder and tilting LCD, the Sony Alpha SLT-A37 is a solid but not outstanding sub-$800 dSLR-style camera.

Solid-feel build; tilting LCD back screen; plenty of manual control and automatic digital effects; good value for money with 18-55mm kit lens; sharp colour-rich images straight out of the camera
Some pixel fringing between areas of high contrast; AF sometimes struggles to keep up with faster subjects; LCD could be more flexible still to match the likes of Canon's EOS 650D, $699
As this a budget model costing a very reasonable $699 with the 18-55mm standard zoom supplied on test, we don’t get the top plate function window found on semi pro models, but we are provided with a shooting mode dial crammed with 12 manual and automat...
This camera is a mixed bag. In the hand it feels cheap, but the image quality is very good. The excellent Sony NEX-C3 compact system camera in our opinion is a better buy for about $50 more. But the A37 does have the significant advantage of the eye-leve...

The part that counts is the image quality and on that score there are no complaints. Images are sharp with accurate colour and almost always correct exposure without adjustment. Our standard subjective tests showed excellent detail rendering and RAW files
The kit lens is optically good but mechanically a little crude in operation. The swivelling 65mm LCD is awful. Even with the adjustable brightness turned down to minimum the image is washed out, colourless and lacking in contrast
This camera is certainly a mixed bag. In the hand it feels cheap, but there is no getting away from the fact that the image quality is very good. The excellent Sony NEX-C3 compact system camera in our opinion is a better buy for around $...
