For those looking for a camera that can handle all the regular photography challenges, the Sony mirrorless camera Alpha range is a perfect choice. Far above the average smartphone, these cameras might look small, but they are extremely powerful, while still being easy to use. The models in the Alpha series are much more durable when compared to their DSLR counterparts. With backside-illuminated (BSI) structures, these mirrorless cameras have been built in such a manner that allows the sensors to function better even in low light conditions. These BSI chips also ensure that the photographic data is processed faster and much more smoothly.
