I was one of the early adopters of the A55 in November of 2010, it being the first Sony Alpha that I have found both affordable enough and interesting enough to own. I'm not going to review it, or even write much about the now well-known things that make it - and the other SLT models - so revolutionary. Instead, I want to write about several aspects of the camera that Sony has not publicized, and that are only being documented now by users like myself.
