I believe you can get it at RM24xx with kit lens or RM21xx body only, RM2600 and RM2999 is quite an old dated price

RM21xx body only is cool ... drool.gif

If not AF, use manual focus..loor.

For Sony,the lenses designed for APS-C sensor have the "DT" in the name,as long as you see "DT" in any Sony lenses,then it's APS-C lens,and those without it,is FF lens.

Most of the Minolta old lenses are FF lens (perhaps all? I not sure about this,someone please clarify,thanks)

Yes,APS-C lens can be used in Sony A850/A900,but the body will crop the image to APS-C sensor size automatically.

And yes,FF lenses can be used in APS-C camera,good example is Minolta old lenses such as beercan/50mm f1.7,or Sony 16-35Z f2.8  drool.gif But the focal length will be different in APS-C bodies,with the factor of 1.5x (for sony bodies),example for Minolta 50mm,the focal length is 50mm in A850/A900,where as for other APS-C bodies,the focal length is 75mm  biggrin.gif

QUOTE(wingster @ Jul 4 2010, 10:08 AM)
In Sony yes, all APS-C will able to fit on FF camera but it gives you an very dark vignetting field because the APS-C lens, the glass itself were not design to cover the coverage of FF sensor field so the result will crop the image down as the APS-C size 

On the other hand all FF-Lens were able to fit in APS-C camera this is because the glass itself were fully coverage on 35mm sensor so it will definitely fit on smaller APS-C sensor

Thanks for the educate.. appreciate notworthy.gif
Oh yes, just order An A550 from Sony centre as have promotion with 3 yrs warranty..@ RM2350 body / RM2460 with kit lens.

Uzumaki NaruTo: Heh, the flash even gets a shadow when using the fisheye converter on the 16mm!

ianho: Argh, just as I thought.

mastering89: Optical quality is about the same for the Hoya HD, B+W and Zeiss. Though the Zeiss is not rated to be scratch proof nor easy to clean.

And yes, the Sigma 50mm F1.4 EX DG HSM should perform well as a video lens. It's smaller than the Zeiss 135mm F1.8 yo!

Normally.. if purchase from Sony centre, the battery is totally flat.
This is because the box is seal.
