The Sony α100 Digital SLR features 10 Megapixels, Super SteadyShot built into the camera body to combat picture blur, and an advanced anti-dust protection system for the CCD, you’re surer to get crisp, clean, pin-sharp results every time.

10.2 Megapixel CCD
A large, 23.6 x 15.8mm APS-C-size CCD imager with Sony’s advanced design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise - and providing greater detail when you make big prints or crop in close on your subject.

Super SteadyShot
When you shoot in low light, the shutter remains open longer, so to compensate for shaky hands or fast-moving subjects, the Sony Super SteadyShot® system automatically reduces image blur. And because it works in-camera, you’ll get the benefit of Super SteadyShot stabilization with every lens you use.

Sharp, Clear Photos
With high-sensitivity (ISO 1600) shooting, the Sony α (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera captures great photos without flash even in low light - which makes it an ideal system camera for shooting without a tripod or in locations where flash is prohibited.

Anti-Dust Technology
Changing lenses in a DSLR can allow dust to enter the camera, so to keep the CCD imager clean for better pictures, the Sony α (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera utilizes both static-free anti-dust coating on the CCD filter and anti-dust vibration that automatically shakes the CCD to dislodge dust each time the camera is shut off.

Dynamic Range Optimizer
To recover details in dark or bright areas of the picture, the Sony α (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera provides two levels of Dynamic Range Optimization: Normal DRO, to improve shadow detail using standard gamma curves for fast shot-to-shot response time, or Advanced DRO, to adjust dynamic range area-by-area for the greatest precision.

Bionz Image Processor
At the heart of the Sony α (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera is the advanced Bionz Image Processor, using hardware-based Large Scale Integrated (LSI) circuitry that responds ten times faster than software image processors - improving camera response time, handling Dynamic Range Optimization processing and extending Stamina battery life.

Eye-Start Autofocus System
Some DSLR systems don’t start focusing until the shutter button is half-pressed but that can slow down camera response. The Sony α (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera begins its precision autofocus adjustments the moment you bring your eye to the viewfinder, to capture fast-action subjects other cameras might miss.

2.5" Clear Photo LCD Plus Screen
The Clear Photo LCD Plus design of the Sony α (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera’s built-in screen makes it easy to read camera setup menus even in bright sunlight - and gives you a better picture when you use your screen to set up shots and check results.

Continuous Burst Mode at 3 Frames Per Second
To catch fast action more effectively, the Sony α (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera offers continuous JPEG image capture up to the limit of your flash memory card - plus RAW Burst Mode (up to 6 shots) with intelligent buffer management to allow more shots to be captured without waiting for the buffer to clear

Dual Media Options
The Sony α (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera accepts both optional CompactFlash Type I/II media and Memory Stick Duo media (with supplied adapter).
