A lot of people write in a personal with questions like: where and how to buy a camera or lens. There is a sea of information about this on the Internet. But, apparently, man is created in such a way that it is easier for him to ask than to search. Therefore, I propose to collect materials on this topic in this topic and, if necessary, send in the direction of this topic. I have already picked up some of them.1) 6 (+ 1) rules that must be followed when buying a digital camera. (clickable)
Comments on the material:
I haven't seen Sonya's gray cameras for a long time, at least in Moscow. Therefore, when choosing a store, you should not think about it especially, confirmation that the camera is white is the presence of instructions in Russian (it can be shortened) and a fully formalized official guarantee, which indicates that it is valid in Russia or in the CIS countries.Sony cameras are sold in boxes sealed with a special sticker. It is impossible to remove this sticker without damaging it, although there have been cases of substitution on the forum. Despite this, 99% of the presence of the sticker indicates that the box was not opened. If there is no sticker, then this camera was watched, or it was from a shop window. This does not mean that it is bad, but if you are inexperienced in choosing a camera, it is better not to risk it and ask them to bring a sealed box that you will personally open. If the sellers refuse to bring another box, or tell fables that they allegedly checked it, laugh in their face and leave, as they are clearly deceiving you - they do not need to check the camera and in 90% of cases they do not know how to do it.
Never pay money to check a camera by a salesperson. This makes no sense, they will tell you 100% that it is working. Moreover, most sellers are illiterate gouges who simply do not know how to do it, but they know how to pretend that they are doing it - in general, this is a waste of money and time.
If you want someone to help you in choosing a camera, please contact your friends or forum participants from your region. Or buy in the official Sony store: http://store.sony.ru/ There, without question, they take the technique back within a week, I checked it personally.
2) How to check the performance of a digital camera in the sales area of a store. (clickable)
Comments on the material:
In my opinion, the recommendations are not very well written, but better than nothing. I'll try to correct the author.Batteries in boxes are always discharged - this is the norm. You cannot normally check the camera with it, but you can recharge the battery without any problems or take the battery from the camera in the shop window. In any case, the seller should provide you with a charged battery to test the camera. If he doesn't want to do this, either sort it out yourself, or look for another store.
When checking the camera, it would be nice to have a USB flash drive with you. It is better to buy it in advance, as in photo shops the price tags for flash drives are often 2-3 times too high. Buy an SD card - don't miss.
Then you need to shoot, but it is quite obvious that it is not possible to get clear and good shots under the lighting conditions of the trading floor, so you either need to shoot with a flash, or look out the store window (if daylight is outside the window), or ask the seller for a tripod ... The latter option is not desirable if you have never shot with a tripod, because with a high probability you will get porridge.
And so - if there is not enough light, you just need to click with a flash on the sides and make sure that the frames are sharp, the focus goes where you are directing it. In order for the focus not to walk, you need to set the P mode and select the spot focusing mode on the central point through the Fn button, because if you have a wide AF zone, you will not be able to understand where the camera focused.
About hot pixels
There is no need to bother with serious checks for broken and hot pixels. In reality, they appear on all cameras and they appear on all cameras over time. But you need to check that there are no really knocked out pixels, which spoil a normal picture. To do this, you need to remove White background or a couple REAL frames at high ISO. Further, it is advisable to see on the laptop screen that nothing clearly catches the eye. If you don't have a laptop with you, then just rummage around the image on the camera screen, for this you need to start the preview and press the magnifying glass button, and move the image with the joystick.Once again, I want to note that hot pixels are present on all cameras, and if you look for them, you will find them. Therefore, there is no need to torment the device with the lid closed, shoot real shots. Or don't bother at all - problems with really interfering hot pixels are VERY rare. (I have never bought defective pixels I did not look, but I bought a dozen cameras).
Screen
Better to carefully check the screen for broken and hot pixels on it. To do this, you need to take a black and white frame, and carefully examine the screen in the viewing mode of a white and black frame. Although problems with screens are also rare, these problems cause mental distress for camera owners.3) How to check the lens upon purchase (clickable)
Comments on the material:
The article is generally correct, except for the section on checking back focus. The target there is very crooked, and if you do it first I give 100% guarantee that you will not succeed. I recommend using real objects in the target location. To do this, put the camera in mode A, use the Fn button to select spot focusing at the center point, push the zoom to "maximum approximation" and use the wheel to open the aperture as much as possible (the lower the number, the larger the hole). If you buy a DSLR with a whale, then at the maximum zoom you will have 5.6. Then you open the flash and focusing on different objects with the central point you shoot whatever comes to hand, preferably from a short distance. Then, on the screen with a magnification, check that the focus is in the right place.There is another option, but it requires knowledge of the camera menu and the ability to put it on a tripod by asking the seller for it. We do the following:
1) We take the target from the article: http://www.fotosav.ru/download.aspx?name=AFTestChart300dpi
We print it and hang it on the wall in the store. (in normal photo shops it already hangs there, but you can do without a target)
2) Turns on picking in the menu, this function is called "outline selection", set the strength of the selection to the maximum. (this is the last page in the MENU in the gear section). This function highlights sharp edges with color.
3) Assign the "digital magnifier" function to any configurable button.
4) We put the camera on a tripod.
5) Focus with autofocus. Then we switch the camera to manual focusing mode (with the lever on the lens, if it is motorized, or on the camera, if it is a screwdriver). Click on the button where the digital magnifier is hanging and see if the contours are selected in the place where we are aiming. You can twist the focus ring to see how accurately the focus is.Once again, I want to note that if you hold the cameras in your hands for the first time, you can not look at the second option.
Checking the sharpness of the lens
In general, the article is well written about this, but I will clarify something.The bottom line is that for any lens, sharpness drops from the center to the edge, but the drop in sharpness along the right and left edges should be about the same. But, often with this there are problems and not only Sony lenses. Therefore, it is better to check it. First, you shoot with focusing on the center point, looking at the zoom screen, that the center is basically sharp. After that, you shift the image to the right and left edges - see that the sharpness falls equally. If the sharpness from one edge is much worse than from the other - this object should not be taken. (take only if you are buying it mother-in-law).
It is advisable to check the lens at different zoom positions. Ideal if you are shopping during the day and there is a window to the street. Then you take two shots without targets: one normal, the other 180 degrees with the camera turned. Given that the camera has a position sensor, you will get two identical frames, but the same area of the frame will be captured on different sides of the lens. This makes it easier to check the uniformity of sharpness.
What to do if you are a full kettle and do not understand anything about what is written above.
For residents of Moscow and the region, this is no problem. Sony has opened a training studio where anyone can come and get advice on any Sony products, including Sony cameras. There, unlike the shops, competent guys work and girls(at least worked when I was there last time), which will teach you how to handle the camera before buying.All information on the studio can be found here: Sony Learning & Support Studio
Enjoy the shopping!ZY If someone has something to add - write.

Let's take an example. For example, many users purchase one or another smartphone and are guided exclusively by its manufacturer. Why it happens? The fact is that many companies have long established themselves in this field of activity. Very often, the only thing left to do after purchasing such a smartphone is to try to check its originality. This is what we are going to talk about today.
Let's say you were presented with a Sony Xperia Z3 smartphone, but you don't know the original one or not? Today we will try to understand exactly this issue.
In fact, there is no exact method for checking this particular phone for originality. You can only indicate the main parameters of the non-original Sony Xperia Z3. First of all, such a phone will not be made of high-quality materials and, of course, all this will be clearly visible.
But you must admit that this method is not suitable for everyone. After all, not every person can determine by eye the level of quality of the material from which the phone is made. Therefore, you can focus on the parameters of the phones.
There is another way to check Sony phone Xperia Z3 for the originality that can be found on the Internet. This is a verification method through the serial number of the IMEI device. But everything is not so simple here. The IMEI code is not responsible for the originality of the device and it can also be faked.
After reading these recommendations, you can come to the conclusion that the originality of the phone, namely the Sony Xperia Z3, is not so easy to check, and sometimes impossible. This is true, but you can follow certain instructions that will help you acquire exactly the original.
First of all, any phone, including the Sony Xperia Z3 smartphone, should be purchased only in trusted stores and offices. Under no circumstances should you buy such phones on the street or in other unprofitable places. Also, before buying, carefully read both the technical and physical parameters of the phone. Thus, you can check all the parameters upon purchase.
If you have already bought a Sony Xperia Z3, but still doubt its originality, then you can proceed as follows. Download the Cpu-z utility from the app store. You need to launch this application and open the Mainboard item. Then you need to find the line Chipset. This should be the Snapdragon 801 value. This is the chipset used in the original Sony smartphone Xperia Z3.
As you can see, any phone can be checked for its originality. True, for this you may need certain knowledge and skills.
