Like the Canon, it offers a useful range of scene modes and support for photographers as they advance their skills, ... ...OS and VR lenses, all Sony lenses (which of course includes all Minolta lenses) benefit from the in-body shake reduction of the Sony.
At 5fps it is speedy, if a little behind the Nikon and Canon (6 and 6.3fps respectively) and at the extremes it is a little noisier in extreme conditions. On my test camera, it also tended towards the blue side in shady conditions, which seemed to defeat the automatic white balance. It found focus even in poor light ...

...times the price of this Sony camera.
For this camera, you have the option using the viewfinder or using the LCD screen. You could also use it's remote to take family photo or self-portrait.

Advantages: Full frame sensor body Disadvantages: none

The Canon EOS 5D does not have a built-in flash.

The Olympus E-520 is a refreshed version of Olympus's upper-entry-level camera, the E-510.
