Re: A900 for Canon 7D - Would I be crazy?

David hit the nail on the preverbial head, I owned a 7D for a couple of months last summer and the image uality is gritty to say the least, hidden as David says by processing, I too had AF problems with it, the D7000 I had was better but had it's own problems, the A850 is in a different league.

Re: Getting used to a77

Here's what is interesting about the A77 and A55 - I don't review any images, I also don't use the rear LCD, it remains folded away facing the camera. Essentially, my viewfinder images is also my 'preview' of exposure and framing and it's easy enough to tell the moment of exposure when the display ...
