SteadyShot INSIDE™
image stabilization
Advanced image stabilization lets you
enjoy handheld shooting with minimal
camera-shake blur. Since SteadyShot
INSIDE utilizes a sensor-shift image stabilizer
within the camera itself. It provides effective
image stabilization for any A-mount system
lens from wide-angle to telephoto. It also
lets you capture sharp images at shutter
speeds up to 2.5 to 4.5 steps slower than
otherwise possible without a tripod or
flash, as well as take advantage of vastly
increased photo opportunities.
New lens shading and aberration
compensation
To ensure optimal shooting results,
the a77 automatically compensates for
the shading and aberration characteristics
of the particular lens you mount. This
includes vignetting ( peripheral shading ) ,
lateral chromatic aberration and optical
distortion, which can each be manually
activated or deactivated as desired.
Embedded data within the camera on
supported A-mount lenses* ensures
optimal compensation every time.
