really? then what is so great about the A900 and A850????

Those are FF bodies.

If you want more infos bout that, you need to ask Sifu here about it.

I poorfag only can afford APS-C bodies. But A900 with CZ24 is awesome XP

yeah...FF with 24 is awesome, also looking at the Sonnar T*...
but the internal image stablize like different from other brand....cause cant see the result while framing

a900 & a850 dont have preset modes like lanscape, potrait, night mode, only have Auto, P, S, A, M mode.

why need present modes????i tot using DSLR mean you know your gears and techniques n will use only S,A,M and sure not the P.......
if i need present modes then i might have just buy PnS.....

I thought most DSLR got P mode, only its whether got people bother 2 use it or not want what?

i thought u said u wanted an easy to use dslr?

easy to use = preset mode

easy just take lowerend sure not much function.. all auto..

true also....but my definition of easy is dont have to adjust so many things like WB, AE mode, AF point etc.......

d_lai_309: On the contrary - you can see sensor stabilization on the A33/A55, and in-lens stabilization on E-mount Optical SteadyShot (OSS) lenses e.g. Sony E 18-55mm F3.5-5.6 OSS and Sony E 18-200mm F3.5-6.3 Active OSS.

Main reason why I started on the Alpha 100 was because I wanted a stabilized F1.4 for street shots in every condition.

Sonnar T* is full of win. If you do a lot of street photography you might like the 24mm F2.0 ZA SSM and 85mm F1.4 ZA's perspective. I shoot concerts and gigs so I got a Zeiss Sonnar T* 135mm F1.8 ZA.


135mm F1.8.


135mm F1.8.


135mm F1.8.


Goes on into the night!

just put into auto mode, any dslr can do that.

if u can afford a leica m9 surely u should know how to set wb, ae, af etc right?

yes Sonnar is the lovely lens.....creamy bokeh........
one more question, other than Sonnar, which lens is carl zeiss specially made for ZA?

d_lai_309: Sonnar usually means bright.

There are 6 Sony Carl Zeiss ZA lenses:

1) Sony Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 16-80mm F3.5-4.5 DT ZA - for APS-C bodies, not recommended for full-frame. The other lenses are all full-frame lenses.
2) Sony Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 16-35mm F2.8 ZA SSM
3) Sony Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* 24-70mm F2.8 ZA SSM
4) Sony Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 24mm F2.0 ZA SSM
5) Sony Carl Zeiss Planar T* 85mm F1.4 ZA
6) Sony Carl Zeiss Sonnar T* 135mm F1.8 ZA

you being very helpful.......
i think i will lock on 4 and 5......
cheers

You should know that they cost a combined 10k together.. LOL!

its only a fraction cost of his M9 la.

Zeiss should do something about the missing 50.
1.2/50 perhaps

unfortunately i do not have nice shot by Planar to share
