Fair enough. I wouldn't like to be the innocent guy in a line-up when you were doing the picking though.Birma wrote:It is probably quite a personal thing Mike. I like the look of the A77 and I think the A77 looks more Min 9 than Can 7. Just IMHO of course .

Re: A77, am I the first to notice?
As for the Rumours images, I am amazed by the comments. It looks nothing like a Canon 7D and actually has a close resemblance to Pentax's current shaping but melded back with the classic Minolta 9xi. You've got to be kidding. There is a striking resemblance to the canon 7D, just look at the silhoue...

Re: Implications of a $999 body only price point for A77
Nice to see that things never change here at photoclubalpha. Still the same old grumbling, and lack of action (i.e. pragmatically accpeting reality and moving to a company that makes ovf-based dslr, if that's your thing). The A55 was extremely well-received by people who didn't have they heads shove...

Re: Implications of a $999 body only price point for A77
I mentioned the D400 primarily due to the same sensor. The more direct competitors to the A77 in terms of price will be the D7000 and 60D, which would appear to be well outclassed by the A77 spec.

Implications of a $999 body only price point for A77
The rumour mill says we'll get a $999 A77 in October with 24MP sensor, enthusiast-style body and great iso, as well as all the usual bells and whistles that accompany the DSLT. This is a super low price for a pretty high spec camera. If I read my tea leaves correctly the upcoming D400 will have the ...

Re: a55 EVF questions
So what's the state of play then? Greg, All's quite straightforward. The a55 SSS for the stills operates exactly the same as that of a700 or any other Sony DSLR. Due to the limitations of evf, particularily the EVF lag that's a extremely incorrect statement. Walt What EVF lag? The EVF lag you see d...

Re: POLL: How much do you use the video function?
mike2008 it was an observation that we have never seen any photos from you, all we ever see is you jumping to the defence of Sony at every opportunity, warranted or not. If you were to actually join in in the forum more instead of the one track record of defending Sony I might see you in a differen...

Re: a55 EVF questions
As a reminder, I am the person asking for a simpler, more basic, more consumer, plastic p&s with a bigger sensor -- although some here, as you say, keep wanting more and more. I am asking for less and less. :) Actually what we have seen ever since Sony got into DSLR is increasing demands step b...

Re: POLL: How much do you use the video function?
My argument is simply that if they can’t build a really good still camera without any compromises due to including video, at least build ONE model without it, AND build it PROPERLY. The only thing is, that would now be a niche camera, most likely, and the price would probably be extreme. Greg Your ...

Re: POLL: How much do you use the video function?
Everyone here is interested in still photography, you should ask on a video-orientated forum if you want to see if the video from the DSLT is well-liked or not.
I think you should calm down a bit.

Re: A55 noise temperature dependence
Surprising results.
What do all the naysayers going on about the ill effects of heating on the camera make of this, I wonder?

And I'm not interested in the 'move to another brand' if you don't like it argument; Sony has a responsiblility to those that have supported them, not to disenfranchise them, and that includes maintaining system component compatibility....system flashes as an example. Greg A responsibility hmm. I t...

Some facts: We don't know what the A77 performance will be like yet. Until we do all those claiming/assuming that it must be inferior for stills compared to a traditional DSLR are simply speculating. That includes Barry and Greg in this thread. The report from spain is hardly an official announcemen...

Well most of the IIB ( Ignorance Is Bliss ) crew have jumped on to this discussion. Can I ask you fellas what is your total experience in hours or days of shooting with the A33 or A55 and under what circumstances and with what lenses ? Now now, don't go spoiling their fun by asking for boring thing...
