Henrik 1881: Comments: Digital Photography Review

On Sony SLT-A99 Hands-on Preview preview (326 comments in total)

In reply to:

twenty200: I own an A77. Until you've shot your style of photography with an A77 or A99, you simply have no idea how much of a positive impact this kind of viewfinder will have. The first time I went out shooting with my A77, I couldn't stop saying "Wow." Not because I was dazzled by the technology. I was wowed by the immense usability. An EVF gives you so much more control over the camera than you've ever known before. It's a lot like the leap from film to digital all over again in that it's even more instant feedback. I can't justify buying an A99, but if I could, I'd have already done it. I'm not a Sony guy, but I'm definitely sticking with Sony unless somebody else creates an even better EVF. For me, it's the killer feature I can't do without. I thought it would be a gimmick. It turned out to be the most photographer friendly feature I could have ever imagined.

With the A77 You can pan just fine. I have tried. But with other EVF it might not work so well. In this price range it is imporant that you can. But I do think the EVF takes some time getting used to.

'high-speed autofocus and image stabilization functionality'? Hopefully the old OM-lenses will fit too.

However, I have seen a very similar shot before a few years ago, before Alpha NEX existed, so it was not this picture. If I remember correctly I think the net was included in that picture. The shot might be real or it might be photo shopped. Still a great picture.

I think this a pretty decent picture. Funny it has not received any comments - until now. Is it because the resolution?
