Sony has announced the SLT-A57, a replacement for the original A55 fixed-mirror, electronic viewfinder DSLT. The A57 still features a 16MP sensor and LCD viewfinder but incorporates them into essentially the same body as the more expensive A65. Use of the latest Bionz processor means the A57 offers a wider-than-ever selection of photographic features and image processing modes.

Sony SLT A57 specifications:

 12 fps continuous shooting* with Full-time Continuous AF
 15-point AF system with 3 cross sensors
 AVCHD Ver. 2.0 (Progressive) Full HD Movie at 60p (50p)**
 World’s first*** Auto Portrait Framing
 Clear Image Zoom
 ISO 100-16000 sensitivity
 New Tru-Finder
