Re: Sony A-99 11
You've posted this video link before, but on reflection, it shows Nelson's migration from the canikon herd to the Sony way of life.

Re: Sony announces new A9 in New York....
:?: Barry I've sussed it out; You just like to be contrary. :lol: This camera is a prime EXAMPLE of a technology demonstrator... technology I might add, that both matriculated UP from lower end camera models AND was the result of camera specific innovation. Sony has released the A68 and both the A63...

Re: Sony announces new A9 in New York....
I think gaudy specs and high profile performance can't but help Sony increase the number of people interested in it's products.
The A9 certainly fits that bill... in toto.
That is CRITICALLY important in a shrinking market....

Re: Sony A-99 11
^^^I'm glad you mentioned both the A68 and the A6000, both of which represent the entry level A mount and E mount range, respectively. I've said it before and will say it again; the camera industry is SHRINKING. Having a full stable of thoroughbred horses just doesn't make fiscal sense when you don'...

Re: Sony announces new A9 in New York....
Barry, the 7 series A mounts are updated 4 years apart just like the 9 series is. That means we are due for an A77III in 2019...

Re: Sony announces new A9 in New York....
There were rumors of an A88 a couple years back.... but that has yet to be fleshed out in fact. It would be nice... but the A99II in fact offers specs WAY above it's asking price. You truly are getting tremendous "bang for the buck." Same with the A9. At this price point, a true photojourn...

Re: Sony announces new A9 in New York....
The NX-1 was a FANTASTIC camera too... well before it's time in terms of performance and specification.
Not enough lenses... but if Samsung had stuck with it, I'm sure there would be a decent selection by now.

Re: Sony announces new A9 in New York....
The most interesting thing is the dual dials and second dial under the left hand one. Looks like they've started to go back to Minolta thinking..took long enough. During the press event they made a REALLY big deal about how Sony "Listened to their customers" and addressed the wants and wi...

Re: Sony announces new A9 in New York....
Photo journalists probably don't need 20fps my point was that it's not just sports shooters there are other jobs in that area. Robustness is a factor these people abuse their gear quite a bit bodies and lenses a very rough life. I raise the flash area two reasons ie compatibility yes you can shove ...

Re: Sony A-99 11
^^^The Camera market is contracting. Ricoh like every other company save Sony and Fujifilm is looking at declining sales in a shrinking market and trying to figure out how to survive.

Re: Sony announces new A9 in New York....
BTW, I think a LOT of professional photojournalists will be moving to Sony because of this camera. The feature set, price point, and performance will be irresistible. And make NO mistake; this camera is aimed SQUARELY at the photojournalist and sports photographer market. Those people are more into ...
