This one could be interesting. Still it looks like some oversights already; namely no 24p for Europe, but at least 25p. It maybe that the early release of the specifications are wrong though.

Where you get this?

"Videography notes 1080p60 or 24 on NTSC models, 50p or 25p in PAL countries"

DPReview aren't the best at reporting video specs at the best of times, so they may have overlooked a specific 24p mode. Unless I've missed something.

Got some issues with my SLT a57.

I’ve got a constant 2.8 aperture zoom-lens, but the camera does increase the aperture when zooming in M-mode (Film) with AF off. With Kit Lens i set aperture to 6 at 18mm and when i zoom to 55 it does increase in the same way as i had set it wide open before zooming.

Why? Does anyone else encounter this?

Howdy, Stranger!
