Re: Pop Photo really likes A77
Yes they seem to do a reasonable job considering that they do need to sell ads to all these companies. If you really read their reviews, of course some are better than others, you just need to realize they are grading on a curve where no camera can be reported as a bad value and not to buy it. You w...

Re: Pop Photo really likes A77
I bought my first DSLR - A100 - because of the Pop Photo review and camera of the year award. Good advice for me. I think they do a reasonable review but not super technical. After all the people on most forums are detail oriented hobbyist that are very interested in the smallest details of getting ...

Re: dPreview A77 samples
I looked at the IR website images and don't see why eveyong thinks the IQ is so horrible - especially considering this is not final processing software.
Need to wait for version 1.0 not judge by V 0.58

Re: DPreview A77 samples
Hard to believe that many of the images we are seeing are going to be representative of the final results. On the flip side hard to believe that Sony would let this camera out for preview with these results coming from the camera. I did see a comparison on one site though that the IQ looked quite go...

Re: That Fuji X100 got me thinking
Yes Barry at the current price this camera definately needs some refinements IMO. Not sure it will ever catch up though as the target is continually advancing - ala NEX 7.

Re: I am sorely tempted to trade in my a700 for an a580
Seems like waiting to see reults of the new A77 would be a good idea before making any decision. Supposedly just a couple days now.

Re: Firmware: Sonys' way of driving us all to SLTs?
I think you can pretty much count on most new support from Sony to be geared towards their new SLT's. It only makes sense as this is the new direction. There is nothing "wrong" with there OVF cameras that needs "fixed" from their point of view. Such is the way companies work it s...

Yep the smart crooks sometimes are never caught - at least not for a long while and then maybe for only something minor.

Re: NEX-7 announcement in three months time?
Yes the NEX and for that matter the SLT cameras are changing the game and bode well for Sony's future. Some people will not like what they have to offer but IMO most will. Not necessarily most on these forums though. All you have to do is look at any of the recent sales figures to see this success i...

Re: Amazon scammed - by buyer?
Could more easily even be someone at Amazon shipping/packing department who lifted it.
These cases are hard to figure out unless the culprit repeatedly does it and establishes a pattern or makes some other mistake. Such as selling a lot of the stuff he is stealing on Ebay under his name.

Re: a55 EVF questions
If they can reduce this present EVF lag by 80% which I assume is doable in effect it will become a nonissue to 99.5% of people. Can't please everyone. My guess is in a few years this issue - which is a legitimate issue to some - becomes a nonissue except for very very few people. Sony not in the bus...

Re: Sony - Foveon sensor & Expanded DR Sensor patent
3 layer sensors will happen for mainstream been saying this for some time now Bayer is running out of steam and fast. Fuji already have a sensor that's trying to capture shadows and hold onto highlights it works well actually but as it's only a small compact one we've not really seen how much poten...

Re: POLL: How much do you use the video function?
I quite agree with that levieuxrenard, I’ve nothing against having the video feature included in most models; it’s probably handy to have on occasion I admit. I wouldn’t mind a NEX myself as a fun camera if it had a better user interface, (or an SLT) who knows I might even dabble with video, just f...
