Sony A57

Hi all

I received my Sony A57 at the weekend have have only been able to use it a small while but has been great and the photos on the LCD have come out brillient to.

I need to get a cheap LED light for my movies any suggestions?

Also the LCD/view finder on the A57 screen seems a little grainy at times, just to clear my mind would this be due to low light conditions due to the mirrorless system?

Thanks

Hello cooke69

First of all, it is perfectly normal for the viewfinder screen to appear 'grainy' in low light conditions.

As far as I am aware, the only option for an LED light would be the Sony HVL-LE1 product which is described here:

Looking around some online stores, prices range between £150 and £200 for this LED light which is fully compatible with the A57.

Thanks,

Simon
