Bye bye A77 ... waiting for A78

Well, I had been using the A77 for a year now and I was quite pleased with it.

There are many things I think Sony did right with this camera. But now I had a chance to sell it, so I did. The only thing that made parting easy was the noise level of that camera. I´m sure the A78 will be improved in that area and plan on getting it when it comes out.

Shooting at ISO 100 in the studio with strobes, I didn´t mind the noise level at all, but I definitely had a problem with it when shooting video in the studio using continuous light.

If the new A58 had Af finetuning I would get it to bridge the gap, but since it doesn´t, I will use a NEX 6 in the meantime which would be the perfect mirrorless camera if it had a touch display, but well, there is no perfect camera

The NEX 6 + the LA-EA2 adaptor have AF finetune as does my little NEX C3. What a pity, Sony doesn´t implement this into all their SLTs. AF finetuning has become such a breeze since there is LensAlign and FocusTune ... a prime is calibrated within 15 minutes ...
