Although the sony alpha 37 is an older model, the camera works with state of the art electronics and an easy to use system settings. the capture modes work for both amateur users to proffessionals. The car zeiss lens technology ensures maximum image quality. Also, the build is extremely light and durable. I have used the camera in all weathers including dry aird, humid and sub freezing temperatures. the only drawback being sony’s signature blend of expensive accessories!
