Excellent high ISO image quality. 12fps continuous shooting. Fast, 79-point autofocus system. In-body stabilization. Sharp OLED EVF. Excellent control layout. Sharp, articulated rear LCD. Seamless Live View experience. Built-in Wi-Fi. PC sync flash socket
A little slow to start and shoot. Single memory card slot. No built-in GPS. Some photographers prefer an optical viewfinder
The Sony Alpha 77 II has one of the quickest autofocus systems we've seen on an SLR and can shoot at 12fps, making it our Editors' Choice....
It may look almost identical to the three-year-old A77, but the latest Mark II version has a lot of new tricks up its sleeve that take Sony's prosumer interchangeable lens camera in a more action oriented direction that will particularly appeal to sports...

Image quality suffers a touch at higher ISO settings

Abstract: Sony has launched a new translucent mirror option in their Alpha range of interchangeable lens cameras. Boasting a new autofocus system and greater ISO sensitivity, will the Sony a77 II become the king of APS-C cameras? We look back at its predecessor, th...
Verdict: One of the advantages mirrorless compact system cameras have over DSLRs – apart from the weight – is the sheer wealth of information displayed in viewfinder and LCD. And the simultaneous subject view through LCD and finder. Well, the Sony a77II g
Contrast: The Sony a77II is bigger than the Sony a7 CSC, but the smaller camera has a larger sensor.Sony is a company with a curious sales strategy. It makes great digital single-lens reflex cameras and then tells you not to buy them.Remember Sony's "idio...
Abstract: Superficially, there's not much difference between the new A77 Mark II and its predecessor, the SLT-A77 we reviewed in September 2011, aside from a slight adjustment to its name. The prefix 'SLT' (for 'single-lens translucent') is now ILCA (for 'interchan...
