QUOTE(Gouki @ Nov 25 2009, 05:01 PM) Exactly~ but but~ sigh~ decisions~ decisions~ and its not ez to find a new a700 now~ what about price? does it drop a lot since its getting obselete? RARE things prices wont go down easily hehehe like the "ancient" beercan  since a700 is like... the 1st alpha that use cmos sensor.. and I think that its the prototype before the come out with FF a900 and 850 since the button layout and design kinda similar... just the top button layout were changed a bit for the lcd thingy.

from what i see on a700 performance..even newer replacement comes out..it probably with higher MP..and a few more function to ease ur life...so other than the MP,i believe the current a700 should be able to do what the replacement could(well not really if they include liveview)..maybe just a lil bit more troublesome..but i guess since we r so into photography/dslr..troublesome should not be the word inside our dictionary.. =p

comparing my a300 vs a850...the interface really awesome...changing the setting is really fast..but well...all these does not affect our photo'z quality..it gives us better life..but not necessarily better photos..
for 550..i tried it for like 10min last week..the menu somehow look abit closer to a330 series..and the button placement is diff from my a300/a850...not really used to it..but i guess its not a big deal..lol..its just a matter of time to get used to those small stuff..tired the auto HDR thingy..looked fun~!

QUOTE(mie_75 @ Nov 24 2009, 05:15 PM) IER & Podster.. true also ahh.. i can put it at night and during the day bring it with me... that does make sense somehow.. ok will safe up for a drybox then... any recommendation? i only have 1 body, i kitlens, 50mm n soon (donno how soon...  maybe an 18-250)... TQ!! I am using an Aipo 21, priced at RM240 (find them all over the photography sales thread LYN). In it, my A300 body with VG, 2 kitty (1870 and 55200), 50F1.7, 2 batteries and Crumpler strap with room to spare. I can still fit in mayb another lens (18250) if i move the stuff arnd. Your existing setup (add the 18250) shld fit in this model as well, if budget constrains, mayb u can get this and then sell off later for bigger drybox when your gears dont fit.
