See What others saying about the new Sony A37
A good option if you’re looking for something fast with a viewfinder and tilting LCD, the Sony Alpha SLT-A37 is a solid but not outstanding sub-$800 dSLR-style camera. read full review by cnet.com
Sony’s offerings in the entry-level arena are perhaps more interesting than its Canon and Nikon counterparts, with the translucent mirror technology, Clear Zoom and Auto Portrait Framing giving the beginner photographer a lot of bang for their buck.
Beginners need to be aware, however, that there are downsides to using a translucent mirror technology. Firstly, the amount of light reaching the sensor is reduced, so focusing in lower light conditions can be a little tricky, and secondly it’s fair to say that although good, an EVF won’t be to everyone’s tastes. see full review at techradar.com
The camera’s JPEGs look reasonably good at ISO 100 and 200; then you start to see more softness at ISO 400, with increasing artefacts up through ISO 3200, which we would consider to be the top of the usable range for JPEGs……………….
The A37 is a solid, entry-level, SLR-class camera that will serve anyone on a tight budget who’s looking for something with which to shoot active kids and pets. see full review at cnet.au
The Sony Alpha A37 is a fairly standard upgrade for the company’s entry-level SLT DSLR lineup. It replaces the A35 with some basic upgrades to control, a new image sensor, but a largely unchanged design………………..
Choosing the Sony A37 over competing options like the Nikon D3100 and Canon T3 largely comes down to a decision for speed versus the comfort of an optical viewfinder. The A37’s 5.5fps full resolution burst is well ahead of the Nikon and Canon options, but the electronic viewfinder still isn’t as nice as an optical option. see the full review at digitalcamerainfo.com

According to latest rumors, Sony will announce a A-mount 16-50 mm f/3.5-5.6 contactable zoom lens (same dimensions the Lumix 14-42mm X PZ) with Sony NEX-F5, the upcoming 16-50mm lens also have Optical Image Stabilization.
Sony NEX-F5 is rumored to have same F3 sensor, flexible LCD screen and in-built Wi-Fi connectivity, expected announcement date of Sony 16-50 mm lens & Sony NEX-F5 is Sep, 2012.
Image comparison between Fujifilm X-Pro1, the Sony NEX-7 and the Canon EOS 7D done at cameralabs, see the images and comparison details below
Lens and camera details
Camera used – Fujifilm X-Pro1, the Sony NEX-7 and the Canon EOS 7D within, Image quality is set at JPEG (best quality).
The X-Pro1 was fitted with the Fujinon XF 18mm f2 R, the NEX-7 with the 18-55 f3.5-5.6 OSS kit zoom and the EOS 7D with the EF-S 18-85 f3.5-5.6 IS USM.
Fuji X Pro 1 and Sony NEX 7 noise performance is better than the Canon EOS 7D 18 megapixel sensor, and same 18 Mp sensor is used in 550D and 600D, I hope canon will use a newly developed and better sensor in upcoming canon 650D.
