An extraordinarily clear and bright viewfinder with a glass prism, a condensor lens between focusing screen and prism for near-perfect illumination, and distortion-free coverage of virtually 100 % at 0.74× magnification?
Or a built-in flash?

I already have a hard time detecting the sharp focus area on my A700 as it is, and am coveting the VF on the A900 and it's user change focus screens. So in thinking about this now, I think I would actualy give up my A700's flash for the A900 VF and be pretty happy with it. I have flashes, but even if I didn't, I think I wouldn't have a problem buying the HVL-25am if I had to to keep the VF

If I could spend $500 to upgrade my a700 into having a OVF equivalent to the a900's, I'd do it. That the a900 starts with a perfect viewfinder and can control flashes wirelessly for either $130 or $500 more (depending on your demands), I am sorely envious.
