destfull: Whatchu talking about? The joystick has been there since the A700! And we have no idea how this grip will feel like.

Anyway you must realize that the A700 has Quick Navi because it's not a Live View camera - the A550 is optimized to be used in Live View (do you find that when using the optical viewfinder, the button layout isn't so friendly?) So the A700 replacement is following the A550's style, with possibly more optimization for video shooting (except the non-tilt screen, bah.)

owh btw... anyone from Melaka? Want TT?

for me (not speaking for others ) personally the fixed/non tilting LCD is a deal breaker for me. I guess I soo used to using the tilting LCD on A550

One thing I couldnt more about what Destfull said is that the a7xx's rear really look like a Canon 7D. :s

moo bro, how much did you buy your tripod velbon ? and where?
Im thinking of getting a tripod la...

well~ its the mockup unit or so call "concept" unit~ which means (i hope) the design is not finalize yet~ and i do hope sony redo the buttons layout for more direct access functions~

destful : Thought you quitting photography? LOL Want my 70-300G? XD

Yeah I thought about that.. but past few days someone asking me to do part time create and maintain his company website on PARTTIME and give MBP, iPhone and monthly gaji

Keep your 70300G for another 1-2 month, I want it

Uzumaki Naruto, achew, noprob.. thanks for making me smile.. at least i got something right!!

Ok will try to sneak up on her and improve on the shots when she goes into hiding again underneath the sofa!!

yep yep.. its been a while... i've been practising and practising... and busy working also She was hiding underneath the sofa and i have to lie down on my tummy to get that shot!! Luckily it works

thanks again

One thing I've never liked about the more serious Canons is the thumbwheel, and boy am I glad the A700 replacement doesn't have it.

Kul | Mo0: I seriously don't get your gear buying and selling rationale. At this point I fear you're seeming to be gearheaded.

haha the thumbwheel is alright but I dont like the method in choosing the AF points for the lower range canons (lower than 5d)

oo..canon...autofocus on liveview for it's lower end models...

not sure about it's high end models though =D

lugia u shud start saving from now....then at the end of the year,u can get A7xx

sometimes you have to sacrifice somethings in order to get something better...
