Sony 14.2-megapixel digital SLR camera with 18-55mm lens

SLTA33L (Black)

Sony's Alpha 33 dSLR is the camera you'll want for all your important occasions. With 14.2 megapixels and new Translucent Mirror technology, you can focus and shoot simultaneously, capturing all those perfect moments. Use the Sweep Panorama mode when you want to shoot expansive landscapes.

Multi-taskers rejoice!

Ready to take photography to a whole new level? Get in on every single shot with Sony's new Alpha series α33. New Translucent Mirror Technology can focus with speed and precision and take shots — simultaneously! The first dSLR series with Translucent Mirror Technology, the mirror is capable of directing light to both the image sensor and the Phase Detection auto focus sensor at the same time, resulting in continuous shooting up to 7 frames per second (with additional thanks to the ginormous Sony Exmor image sensor).

Sensitive from the inside out

You almost won't believe the features the α33 offers. They're sure to take you from prima donna to semi-pro in no time: SteadyShot INSIDE image stabilization reduces camera shake just like it should, but it does it from the body of the camera, not the lens. (Most stabilization systems are located in the lens, not the camera body.) A ultra high 12,800 sensitivity, low-noise CMOS sensor, and high-tech BIONZ image processor produce incredibly clear low-light photographs without loss in detail. Pro-style technology, such as "rack focus," Dynamic Range Optimizer, 1200-zone exposure metering, and RAW image capture, give you endless creative options, all in one powerful, compact camera.

Optimizing your success rate

Maybe you're on the fence when it comes to digital photography. You want the creative license, but you also want to take great photos on the fly without putting a ton of effort into them. Sony's on it. In addition to the high-end pro features on the α33, they've thrown in eight standard scene selection modes, Face Detection and Smile Shutter technology, plus six creative style setting to put some funky finishing touches on your photos. They've even added the Sweep Panorama mode that digitally stitches together images with expansive results.

Outstanding high-definition video

Times have changed. Now there probably isn't a digital camera on the market that doesn't include movie capture technology. Luckily, the purchase of Sony's α33 ensures you get not only amazing still shots, you also get unbelievable video thanks to the very same technology. So, take advantage of the full-time phase-detection auto focus for fast, precise full high-definition video capture.
