Top right of the Sony A380’s screen we get a further Function button for those details we’d expected to find amidst the menus but didn’t. Here for example we find the D-range optimiser, along with auto focus modes, metering, white balance, AF area, plus Creative Style settings. It was really worth upgrading for me in terms of image quality and speed.
If you are serious in taking great pictures, consider upgrading to a Canon IS 17-85mm lens. The XSI adds many new features including a longer battery life, and it’s a lot better in taking clearer pictures in darker light, ISO bottom on the top compared to the XTI. Though the XTI did have a metal body, this XSI has a plastic body and the “on” led is not replaced by an ISO button.
These pre-optimised user selectable settings run from the default of ’standard’ through the self-explanatory vivid, portrait, landscape, night view, sunset and black and white. For each of these creative options, contrast, saturation and sharpness can be individually adjusted.
