a review of a a350 in a true Kinetics underwater housing

Cheers, Stephen

the problem is that phpBB is changing b s [remove space between b and s] to true, the link should be b s-kinetics-gibson.html

URL does not work.

I have supplied an A350 to Ian Cartwright, who is shooting some amazing underwater baby stuff synced to Broncolor flash suspended over a pool. I will know soon whether it has worked out.

I don't see any pictures to show performance underwater. Mostly he's concerned with the dive details and the housing. There's one thing that he writes that I disagree with:"It facilitates using the Live View. The Live View function of the Sony DSLR-A350 not only works at manual focus, also at auto focus. Focussing in Live View is carried out even faster than using the optical viewfinder!"

I find focusing faster thru the OVF.

For some reason the url keeps changing. This link: http://www.letsgodigital.org/html/revie ... sings.html" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;
gets you to the selection page. It's the top middle article.

Dusty
thank you
Looks it will take Sony years to work out for
1. live view
2. video capability
3. longer battery
