I'd say whatever they call their ratings, highly recommended, more highly recommended, a bit recommended etc, what is missing is consistency. If they want to rate cameras, they have to establish a set of criteria (much more than what they show in the conclusion) and give points from 1-10, then the f...

merhaba yildiz!

welcome and hoş geldiniz from France!

You won't regret getting the A700, I just did. Anything else that Sony might release soon will be much more expensive. :

I went for the Sony 18-250 a few months ago. I needed a walkaround lens for those days when you just grab your camera and have no time to change lenses. Like it a lot.

Thanks to all for your ideas. Yesterday evening I did my first test. Wow!! What a difference. The shutter feels so fast :shock: . I could sit here til the end of the week and press the shutter again and again just for the fun of it :D . Coming from the KM5D, the display is just unbelievable, as is t...

Thanks David, a few good points I hadn't yet thought about !

Thanks David - yes the sensor has been cleaned since!

Well, maybe I am just posting this to tell you I finally got an A700 , battery is charging..

Anyway, my background is the KM5D, any good tips for an upgrader? Any fundamental changes I am not yet aware of? Any traps and pitfalls to avoid?

Second one was at Munich Airport, KM5D with Sigma 10-20 The heli-shot was actually not easy, I was using just the ...

I remember some pretty heated discussions on cRaw on dyxum, do a search there.

One guy reprogrammed what was required to decode it and compared to RAW.

Maybe Paris is closed because they're all down here!! :D It's currently 'Soldes'-time (sales), we were in Nice last weekend and both beaches and sho...

Hi there, I just joinded, some might remember me from that other 'review' site where I am registered since 6 years as Thomas Goseberg (which happens to be my name :D ). I also contributed (just once) to David's magazine by providing some pics & impressions from the first Sony World Photo Awards ...
