Translucent Mirror Technology
Conventional DSLRs can shoot.  Or they can focus with the speed and precision of Phase 
Detection AF.  They cannot do both at once.  The SLT-A37 utilizes Translucent Mirror Technology 
that  directs light to both the image sensor and the Phase Detection AF sensor simultaneously. 
16.1 megapixel resolution
You get incredible detail and gorgeous enlargements.  Thanks to the 16.1 megapixel APS-C 
sensor size and Sony Exmor® APS HD CMOS technology, the camera achieves high resolution 
with no penalty in low-light sensitivity or sensor noise.
ISO 16000 sensitivity
Incredibly clear low-light pictures without sacrificing detail, made possible by the low-noise 
Exmor® APS HD CMOS image sensor and refined BIONZ® image processor.
Full HD 1080/60i/24p movies

Tele Zoom High Speed Shooting
The translucent mirror makes it far easier to capture the decisive soccer kick or your baby at her 
absolute cutest.  The Tele Zoom High Speed shooting mode shoots up to 7 fps at 8.4 MP while 
maintaining continuous auto focus and auto exposure.
Auto Portrait Framing
Simply photograph a person and Auto Portrait Framing will save an additional, optimally framed 
image in portrait or landscape orientation. Combining Face Detection and By Pixel Super 
Resolution technologies with rule of thirds, Auto Portrait Framing provides beautifully composed 
and appealingly balanced full resolution portraits.
Eye-Level Electronic Viewfinder
The eye-level finder is one of the reasons people love DSLRs.  But that finder goes dark whenever 
you shoot HD Movies.  The Sony®  SLT-A37 enables you to shoot movies with the added stability 
you get holding the camera up to your face and using the eye-level finder for framing a scene 
and focus. The Tru-finder™ Electronic Viewfinder (EVF) is super bright, easy to see with an ultra-
sharp 1.1x magnification factor.  For those who require a longer eye-point (eyeglass wearers), it 
also provides a function for adjusting the finder magnification ratio.
Tilting 3” 230K LCD dot screen
Tilt LCD up 135° or down 55° to frame high- and low-angle shots that would otherwise be hit-or-
miss.
Clear Image Zoom
Utilizing Sony’s exclusive  By Pixel Super Resolution Technology, Clear Image Zoom increases the 
effective focal length of your lens up to 2x by digitally magnifying the center of your image with 
nearly imperceptible degradation that provides greater shooting flexibility.
Superior Auto mode
Get cleaner, more dynamic pictures and fewer missed shots. Unifies and simplifies Sony intelligent 
technologies, the camera automatically recognizes the correct scene mode, then quickly shoots 
and combines up to six shots to produce images with greater clarity, optimum dynamic range 
using Auto HDR technology and lower image noise using 3 shots layering technology.
Sony® Exmor® technology
Capture your moments perfectly with Sony’s exclusive Translucent 
Mirror Technology DSLR with superb performance whether you’re 
shooting HD movies or still images. Tele-zoom High Speed Shooting at 
up to 7 frames per second, complete with continuous auto focus.  High-
seed auto focusing is visibly faster in Live View and HD Movie modes.
