LOL. Amazing. I am seriously considering the a55. Do you still like yours? I have heard that it overheats rather quickly with the Steady Shot enabled while shooting videos longer than 10 minutes. How has your experience been?
@geesisfreak I won't change it for any other model of any brand- mainly AF works perfectly. Well, overheating is problem with steadyshot - it takes about 5 minutes to overheat and then you have to wait, BUT without steadyshot it overheats after 29 minutes (I've tried it), so you can use stabilized optics and keep steadyshot turned off (neither canon or nikon have steadyshot). If you're interested, watch other my videos taken by A55 - you can find many of them in my YT profile.
@FSsoldier Purchased my a55 from Best Buy yesterday. Got the 55-200mm zoom as well as an extra battery and bag. I will get the external mic and UV filter lense as well. Thanks for your videos and enthusiasm for the camera. They were very helpful in pushing the a55 over the top for me.
@geesisfreak Woow, I hope you'll be as satisfied as me. I'm glad that my videos helped someone to choose the best. 55-200mm is very good cheap lens, I also tried it (my friend has it). Today I bought Minolta 70-210mm F/4 Beercan, my actual 70-300mm Sigma APO Macro Super isn't as good as I expected, mainly in sharpness and contrast at wide open, and hunts in low light. So there will be some new video test of this lens soon. What external mic did you buy?
Thanks FSsoldier! I am from Brazil. I bought an alpha a55 with Sigma 18-250 in B&H on 03-12-2010 and I'm waiting...... to see. Your video make all my family smile, It' s so funny. Sorry for my inglish.......
thanks for your comments, at first I only wanted to show, that smile detection REALLY works, but as soon as I uploaded it here and watched it again, I started laughing, and so my friends on facebook, don't know why :D
you are very cute
