Sony A58
Sony A58 Stan Horaczek

Our friends over at Popular Photography just put up a hands-on examination of the new Sony A58 DSLR. The A58 is the couple-years-later followup to the A55, which won Popular Photography's highest honor, Camera of the Year, back in 2010. It's cheap, at only $600 for the whole kit, but it doesn't skimp on features or quality, with a 20MP sensor (upped from 16MP on last year's model), an OLED eye-level finder, and 60i video at 1080p--damned impressive at that price point. Head on over to Pop Photo for a sample gallery and more insights.
