I wish to buy the 70-200 G but would be willing to wait if there is a concrete expectation of a new one coming out in the next few months. Judging from the 70-400 G, the price would be similar for a (claimed) higher performance. Of course, someday, there will be a new one. My inquiry has exactly the...

The answer of David mentions the a77 (which I have). How would this answer look like for the a99 (which I also have)? I am still wondering which one of the two lenses to buy. And, of course, I am also wondering weather I should wait for the new lenses. Is there also a new 70-200G coming out or only ...

I just heard from the local SONY dealer that the 70-400G is discontinued. At the end of March, the successor model (whatever that means) will be available.

I am willing to buy a Tele of the G-series. What is a better idea? 70-400 G or 70-200 2.8 with 2x teleconverter? I suppose the latter would be better up to 200 mm but what about 200mm - 400 mm? I may also soon consider the a99 and in any case full frame will come sooner or later. Miltos I just heard...

Thank you for your help. Apparently there is little risk. I did some test shots with the a77 and some comparisons with the a100. For a portrait with the Minolta 85/1.4 at 1.4 the a77 is superior. I tested some higher ISO shots and same result. I am missing a nice landscape on the beach, a nice sunse...

I am a relatively satisfied user of the SONY a100 since September 2006. I shoot only RAW. My themes are mostly landscapes (beach, sunsets) but also portraits and people. When I shoot indoors, I rarely use flash but rely on fast lemses of fixed focal length. I very rarely use ISO above 200. In some s...
