sony a77

[o hey tyler]

So, why are you suggesting that I would need a handheld meter to compensate. Do you use a handheld meter to compensate for 1/3 of an fstop?

No, not at all. I am asking if when you use a hand held meter, do you have to compensate for the pellicle? This would indicate if the in-camera meter is compensating, or if the sensor's analog gain or raw processor is compensating.

I mean, I know you think I'm as dumb as a box of rocks or something, but I'm really not.

Of course you're not dumb as a box of rocks. If you were, you'd own an A77.

Zing!

Now this guys is trolling. As you expect from most Canon users. lol

1/2 stop is 30% of the light. That is a LOT.

30% of light was just an estimated. The real thing proves that even after the light lost, a77 managed to outperform most camera on the market.

If I decide to not overuse something, it is my personal choice. It has nothing to do with the camera. You are making it an issue because you got nothing else to say.
Burst mode is totally locked down for all settings, meaning the a77 is controlling everything on a frame by frame basis. That what I was trying to say. The concept of 12fps is more for "to capture every single moment"
lol a77 EVF refresh rate is fast enough and it has no issue in regards of tracking a speedy subject. Where did you get the idea that it can't? Troll nowadays. lol
What brand released something good? Sony. Your opinion don't matter because everybody can see how fanboy you are. I posted some link stating how a77 destroy every single Aps-c camera of Canon. Why are you saying bad things to the camera that superior to Canon? You should start with canon first. Even Nikon destroy Canon eveybody knows that lol

Studio Shot sample of a77 vs the Canon 7D. A77 once again destroy the 7D

You can call the a77 "suck, bad camera, noisy," etc. you cannot change the fact that it is better than most camera on the market.

don't you people get this thread locked. i am really curious how the SLT compensates exposure!

 

[argieramos]

Something equivalent to driving full speed in a dodge viper without insurance would be borrowing a 1Dmk4 and taking underwater photos with it without an underwater housing.

Not really. You can drive without insurance, but you cannot take pictures underwater without underwater housing. lol
Borrowing a camera with no insurance is like driving a car with no insurance. My example is more accurate than yours lol.

You loose light because of the pellicle, but the sensor in SLT's compensates for that light lost.

So then, it's compensated in analog gain rather than the "right way", by exposure. Essentially instead of shooting at ISO 800, you're really at 1064. Instead of 400, you're really at 532.

And that's if it's just 1/3 stop.

I could deal with 1/3-1/2 stop less light if compensation was being done optically. It would have been pretty cool if you could choose how you wanted it compensated (can you?). But man. That kind of blows.

I'll just wait for the 7.

whooo! noise introduction!

 

[unpopular]

^^ and this coming from a 4/3 user :er:

 

[Crollo]

Wait, let me get this straight, the A77 has a translucent mirror that sheds the sensor of light, introduces noise by upping the iso to compenstate, and has a EVF?

 

[skieur]

Wait. Piss.

Ok. you're right, Skieur. The meter would obviously be calibrated for the transmissive side of the pellicle. I don't think the mirror is the cause of any noise performance issues provided that this is the case. If it isn't, shame on sony, but this could be easily accounted for in EC.

Just curious - do you need to compensate for this with a handheld meter?

Oh, and you use a handheld meter to compensate for 1/3 of an f stop. :lmao:

I think you guys need to take a step back, Skier has been a professional photographer for over 30-50-70 years now and you guys keep questioning him... every thread he is on goes on for about twenty pages because simply put.. NO ONE listens to Skier, when he is an experienced PRO who values his Sony products. This one is currently 11 pages, ONLY 9 pages to go before you get the message Skier is correct!

Well, you got everything else wrong, why should I not be surprised that you cannot even get my username correct either. LEARN TO READ AND SPELL.

Ah, try that in English that makes sense!!!!!
