If you're looking for a model with fast performance, decent video capture, and the benefits of an electronic viewfinder, those are the Sony Alpha SLT-A35's strong suit
Even compared to a dSLR it's a bit dowdy-looking and it's bulkier than competitive ILCs, with a couple of awkward control placements
A solid camera for point-and-shoot upgraders who want to be able to shoot action and video, the Sonly Alpha SLT-A35's bulk may still be a turn-off for some.
Abstract: 16.20MegapixelsSony Alpha (Minolta A) mount3.0 inchLCD Review Summary: Smaller than an SLR, yet compatible with SLR lenses, the Sony A35 also does tricks: it's capable of up to 7 frames per second at a slightly cropped image size, but still retails for...
When Sony launched the SLT series in 2010, the A55 and A33 were, with their bright EVFs and full-time phase-detection AF, arguably the most innovative new cameras in an otherwise quite uneventful year (from a camera technology point of view). In compa...
Abstract: Sony has always been a company that does things a little differently and its SLT-series D-SLRs are a good example of this. Sony inherited its D-SLR platform from Konica Minolta, but has very quickly built its own identity with the subsequent generations o...
Poor button ergonomics, no flip-out LCD, Kit lens feels plasticky and cheap
The Sony Alpha A35 is a viable alternative for its entry-level Canon EOS 600D and Nikon D3100 competitors. It doesn't have any special surprises in picture quality or usability, although we think the build quality of the bundled lens isn't great and the b...
Excellent for shooters who prefer using Live View to the viewfinder. Range of picture effects. Image stabilisation in the body
No flip-down screen like on the A33. Kit 55-200mm lens is not great
The A35 is a subtle update to the Alpha range of SLRs and while it won't be a game-changer, it's certainly good at what it does....

Like: Autofocus is lightning fast and although the lens feels to have been made down to a price it is sharp with good contrast and colour, even at the 200mm end. Focus, exposure and colour accuracy are all very good. Movie quality is excellent.
Dislike: The flaw in this camera, which may be corrected in a full production model, is that in Hi burst mode the camera freezes after a few frames and the viewfinder blacks out. It's not a problem with Lo burst (uncropped frame) mode
Abstract: Sony's just-announced SLT-A35 takes the 16.2-megapixel sensor and the Translucent Mirror Technology (TMT) technology from the popular SLT-A55V and includes them in a smaller, lighter and lower-priced camera body. Introduced to replace the SLT-A33 model...

It's great to see Sony's commitment to pellicle mirror technology continuing and being used in affordably-priced cameras that are designed to appeal to both novice users and more experienced photographers. Sony has got a lot of things right with this tech...
