Are you saying that it's impossible to shoot wide-open in the 12 fps mode or that it's impossible to select a specific aperture? Is there another camera which can contentiously track moving subjects at 12 fps?







You can shoot video with full manual control, but you'll need to switch to MF. I guess Sony looks at two different audiences here - professional videographers who need complete manual control, and soccer moms / family users who want to get the video quality and responsiveness of this camera (which is probably unrivaled by any consumer camcorder) without having to work hard for it. Can you think of another camera which answers both needs better? Surely not other APS-C cameras that allow AF in video, as they are not a good match for the other audience:

If Sony gets enough flack from reviewers for the lack of manual exposure control while the camera is in AF then they're likely to fix this in a firmware update. Look at what they did with the NEX user interface after the reviews complained about it.

My point is that AF in video is not desirable, and that was the whole reason for the SLT. Of course, with MF those drawbacks are gone, but then the SLT solution is a solution for something that was not broken in the first place.



They will not fix the lack of manual exposure control in video with AF, as there is a technical reason for it... since the camera uses its PD AF, it needs to lens to be open enough for the PD AF to work. They chose the f3.5-5.6 window, one would have to ask Sony engineers for the reasons behind the f3.5.
