Re: The concept of Translucent...and resistance to it.

I got to thinking that my last (overly long) missive was perhaps posted in the wrong thread. For the record, I don’t think that pellicle mirrors will last too long – they will be replaced by no mirrors and no mechanical shutters – everything electronic. My last message was obviously a bit premature....

Re: The concept of Translucent...and resistance to it.

Yes - Similar to my first impressions. At long last I decided to upgrade from my old KM D7D’s. My original one is virtually dead, and the one I bought from DK is also showing signs of succumbing to the FFB disease. I went into one of the few stores that had stock to handle the A77.

Re: minolta 7d-purchase or avoid?

Hi Paul I still use a D7D for my photography. Every time I try handling another camera (A700, A900, etc.) I find myself disappointed and turn back to using the D7D. It seems to me that each new generation of camera feels “cheap” by comparison. But the main reason I like the D7d has much to do with t...

Re: Challenge 22: "Portraiture"- (D)SLRs only
