Sony Electronics Asia Pacific today announced two new Sony Alpha cameras, the Alpha 55 (SLT-A55V) and Alpha 33 (SLT-A33) that adopt Sony’s newly-developed Translucent Mirror Technology which achieves the highest-level performance for both still image and movie recording.

Revolutionary Translucent Mirror Technology
The Alpha 55 and Alpha 33 are the world’s first interchangeable lens digital cameras to incorporate Translucent Mirror Technology, which enables new features that were previously difficult to achieve with traditional DSLR cameras. By replacing the mirror box used in conventional DSLR cameras with an original mirror box containing a fixed translucent mirror, both cameras offer full-time, TTL phase-detection autofocusing during live view and movie shooting, as well as high speed continuous shooting with continuous autofocus (AF) – features previously available only on professional-grade cameras. By integrating a fixed translucent mirror, this also results in a more compact body design that is approximately 23% smaller than that of the 550 for maximum portability.
