Choosing A700 vs. one fo the A3XX or A5XX series
Re: Choosing A700 vs. one fo the A3XX or A5XX series

I also like the A700 and A580. After, reading the email, I had to pull them out of the cases to handle and shoot them. I wish Sony had updated them. I still like the pentaprism cameras. These a-mount cameras are just nice to shoot. The ergonomics and menu systems are much better than the E-mount Sony cameras. The A580, as rated by DxO, has an 80 rating, that's close to the A77II. I want to get a A77II someday. People are holding on to the good copies. I kick myself sometimes for not buying one new. I moved on to the E-mounts, because they were there and I had to find out. Sony wasn't going to give me copies. Darn! Besides, all the new glass is in E-mount. I say, if you get new gear, don't toss out the good old gear. You can't look back, once it's all gone. "You can't get that lovely feeling..any more when it's all gone. B&M camera stores are extinct in my area, so I can't handle new models. No, Best Buy is not a camera store.

The new Panasonic Leica 9mm F1.7 sure is tiny and cute, but is it a good choice for Micro Four Thirds users? Our team at DPReview TV has the answers.
It says Olympus on the front, but the OM System OM-1 is about the future, not the past. It may still produce 20MP files, but a quad-pixel AF Stacked CMOS sensor, 50 fps shooting with full AF and genuine, IP rated, weather sealing show OM Digital Solutions' ambition. See what we thought.
