Power Save; Finder/Lcd Setting - Sony SLT-A58 Handbook

Power Save

You can shorten the waiting time until the camera turns on power save
mode when it is not being operated to prevent the battery from being
consumed. If you operate the camera, for example, pressing the shutter
button halfway down, the camera returns to shooting mode. If you do not
operate the camera for a set period of time, the brightness of the LCD
screen is reduced.
