Background
Sony is a global electronics company that started making cameras in 1996. Sony’s cameras are divided into two main lines, the point and shoot Cyber-shot and the DSLR Alpha line. Although the Cyber-shot was introduced early on in the digital camera game, they lost popularity as adoption increased and the market became more saturated. However, the Sony Alpha line continues to rank third as of 2015 behind Nikon and Canon. Sony developed their Alpha line in 2006 as a result of the company’s acquisition of Konica Minolta. Contemporary Alpha models make use of mirrorless technology, which places the image sensor directly behind the lens. Older Alpha models use an A-mount interface for lens attachments, while the newer models use an E-mount.
Identification
Sony cameras can be identified by the ‘SONY’ logo on the camera body or the top of the flash module, with the model’s identification usually on a label on the bottom. Cyber-shot models will typically be smaller and thinner, without an interface for lens attachments, while Alpha models will typically have the greek alpha symbol (α) on the side of the camera body opposite the shutter button, along with any further model information.
