lol..they stop using CF anymore??!@#$%#@


btw..is this is confirmed spec???

fuaa.. seems like a700 with live view!
what ta bout price? hmm... jeles2...

but no video rite? how to compare with d90
more like... 40d? or d80?

its always good to have..but how often we gonna use the vid function...if i had a choice..i rather they give me better IQ or cheaper rather than having vid function...i have friends using d90 and 5DII but i dont see them taking vid at all..lol..other than a few vid to tryout when they just bought the camera...

maybe can make bugs porno.....

agree...video in DSLR to me is nono if it add up costing and reduce IQ

seems like confirmed spec. there might be other details as well but still unknown at the moment.

A550 still unknown.

There's spec for A850 as well which will be priced much cheaper than A900. Changes are such as
- different top panel for housing (not fully magnesium alloy like A900)
- 3fps (but still have dual bionz)
- viewfinder coverage 98% at 0.74x magnification (A900 has 100%)
- some alteration to in-camera functions

sigh....I prefer CF too....

erh...I wonder if they are using the same AF system from A700 or not....

agree, good to have but not a must to have..
yeah, better IQ, and performance is more important to me )

i wouldn't say video reduce IQ, but it certainly does not help improve still photo shooting or improve image quality, at the cost of price.

this one got picture some more of A5**...but the lingo, you have to learn from micheal ballack la

pic of sony A5**

Sony might probably choose to follow other makers, semi-pro and above body use CF, lower bodies use SD

A700 has 11-AF points, while the A500 will have 9, but it will have double cross center AF point just like A700. But sadly, no red beam assist light to help shooting under low light.

Ahh.... So my predictions seem to be right so far...

The A500 is indeed the A100's true successor. Just a tad under the specs of the A700 and will compete at the price point for the D90 range.

I forsee that the true A700 replacement (and hopefully will be Sony's APS-C flagship) will come next year and will probably have more kick-ass features. Expect to pay around RM5k for this monster.

A850 - budget FF to cater for those who wanna go FF on a shoestring (hey! it rhymes!). The A900 will remain as FF flagship until a replacement comes (end of next year, maybe).

since the size like a little bigger from a330...

I wonder how the button layout will be...

hope its not as aX30 series which need change setting through menu though

thanks man

I'm a bit confused before with the normal 8R size because I need to crop it due to the different ratio from the usual 4R size (6x4 in) & native dslr 3:2 ratio.

i found this :

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_phot...hic_print_sizes

It turns out that it's called S8R..Super8R
