wow, i was missing for like a day and a half, and super debate happens... very intriguing and provoking conversation. now THIS is what i expect to happen more often in forums like these. ieR, that studio photog, if me, i'd strangle him till he pays back at least half of what he's paid if not all.

albnok: like that also can? in that case i can add that 3+7 is 10 where 1+0 is 1 ? LOL

freddy, from what i see, the tammy's 10-20 is just an UWA.

kevinwcw, so do i smell of an upgrade coming up?

about the video, i'm not surprised. sony is known to wait for competitors to pioneer some tech, then they themselves will better it, which takes time to perfect. taking the concept of, either do it right, or else, dont do it.

i'll be itching to see what new innovation will be used to outdo competitors in the video segment.

A7xx..bring it on!

kevin, motor yes, but the gearing ratio of the focusing elements in the lens differ from lens to lens. Taking a macro lens as an extreme example, focusing from MFD to inf. is very very slow

u can actually use the built in flash. use full manual, expose for the background 1st. meaning take a normal pic with the background properly exposed, then next shot, using the same exposure, fire a flash to light up the model, if its too bright, use the flash compensation to control the flash output

on another note:

Camera Model - Sony Alpha A700
Lens - Minolta 35-70 @ 70mm
Exposure - 1/125 s, f/9 @ 100 ISO



wireless flash on wall at the back.

hahhaa, it's my friend's. CNY party at her house, i was early, so took out my flash and started shooting her figurines. can actually see cobwebs on the neck >.<

mini Alphas! O_o say w00t!

ier, achew, maybe i should stick back to landscape? ROFL

i have a feeling this thread is going to jump 3-4 pages for today alone...

yeah, about to point that out. i LOVE the WB and ISO buttons on the A700. any idea on when the full view of the new cams can be seen? back layout, usability, stats etc.

wingster: u have 2 sony bodies (one of which u jz recently acquired) and you're thinking of jumping ship? don't be a sheep.

at least the metering's still in position... the back dial's a bit out of angle dont you think? ergonomics?
could the WB button is now below the D-pad?
