The main feature of the Sony Alpha A380L camera has to be the 2.7 inch LCD screen which can be tilted up or down, allowing the photographer to shoot from higher in the air, or low to the ground without strain. Because of the tiltable screen, the 2.7" LCD also features Live View, which allows the photographer to see what the camera sees in real time. You may still use the viewfinder at any time, but for those high or low shots, Live View is there when you need it. Image stabilization is taken care of with the Sony SteadyShot INSIDE, which lets the photographer quickly snap photos without worrying about the blur due to camera shake (a steady problem when any camera is held at an angle or at arm's length). And even with image stabilization, you'll get up to 2.5 frames per second continuous shooting.

The Sony Alpha A380L camera features a very easy to use navigation and function guide display, so that even those new to Sony DSLRs find the menu screen and setting options intuitive to use. The Alpha A380L camera includes a help system for each menu option to get the new DSLR user accustomed to the setup of aperture, shutter speed, The Alpha A380L model has several other features which make DSLR photography simpler than ever. The camera's 9-point autofocus sensor also helps the new DSLR photographer by providing lightening-fast, accurate focus control from the second you raise the camera to your eye. And with the automatic, pop-up flash, the Sony Alpha A380L takes the guesswork out of lighting. The Sony Alpha A380L camera offers a variety of creative style settings, which can be used to adjust the picture contrast, color saturation, and image sharpness with ease. If you aren't familiar with these options, the integrated help system will get you goins on these options as well.

At only 17 ounces with a lens, the Sony Alpha A380L DSLR camera is lightweight and easy to handle so it doesn't feel like a huge weight for "on the go" photography. The grip has been redesigned from previous Sony Alpha DSLR cameras to provide a better feel in the hand, or at least a more comfortable carrying sensation.

The Sony Alpha A380L DSLR camera is equipped to use either Memory Stick cards or SD/SDHC memory cards to store and share your photos. Because it has dual slots, you can use insert both at the same time so you don't have to remove one as it fills up.

If you own a Sony Bravia HDTV, the Alpha A380L is directly compatible with PhotoTV and can be used with the Bravia HDTV's controls to view the photos from the A380L to the television.

The A380L camera's extra-long battery life makes traveling with the camera a breeze. You'll be able to shoot up to 230 images on one charge if Live View is on at all times with the powerful lithium battery (NP-FH50). If you prefer the viewfinder, 530 shots is the maximum.

And last of all, but probably equally as important as anything else is the anti-dust system. A special coating on the Sony Alpha A380L camera's CCD filter repels dust, keeping images free from spots. The camera also shakes the CCD sensor at power down to remove the dust when the camera is not in use.

Unfortunately, Sony has chosen to stop selling the Alpha A380L camera at this time, which means the next step up is the Sony Alpha A390 camera. While a discontinuation might not be a good thing, for bargain shoppers it's fantastic! Someone looking for the Alpha A380L DSLR camera should be able to find a great deal on this fascinating little camera. If you are new to DSLR's, then the A380L is the proper camera to start with on your new adventure!
