The interlaced video modes store progressively recorded frames at half the stated field rate. Unlike its predecessor, the Sony Alpha 57, the Alpha 58 does not offer 50p/60p video modes. Also unlike previous generation SLT cameras including the A57, A65, and A77, the A58 does not crop the sensor width when video Steady Shot is turned off.
Features
[edit]Infrared remote control does not exist as it did with its predecessor A-57. Remote control by computer via USB is available. Captured images are immediately transferred to a computer and no memory card is involved in this case. Powering the device via optional ACDC adaptor is available.
