Indeed it looks like poor packing was the main problem in this case. Since my €800 camera was stolen from my checked bags by baggage handlers at Brussels Airport a few years ago I worry about theft...

Richard Butler I can only assume that Phil was short of files to use in the review!
Thanks for the interesting article.

Yuk! What's with Adobe using Phillip Scofield in the product shots for version 1.0? Ruins what might have otherwise been an excellent product. (Brits will know what I'm talking about.)

Maybe Sony will consider ditching the low pass filter this time around?

(((Pedantic hat on))) - Nokia isn't Scandinavian...

No, larger hands can also use a Sony Alpha in my opinion. What has let the cameras down in the past is the placement/design of the controls rather than the size of the body.

I have some sympathy with the OP. Sony clearly expects some E-mount APS-C users to spend out, for example the A6500. It also continues to offer cheaper APS-C e-mount bodies such as the 5xxx ...

Thanks @Ebrahim Saadawi and @Revenant that's what I took it to mean. I just wanted to give Barney some (polite) feedback on the writing, that's all.

Thanks for article Barney, but me no understand this sentence: "The Canon EOS Rebel T7i replaces the T6i (which will continue to exist), making it the top model in the compact Rebel lineup." I...

LAE3 really is painfully slow focussing with SAM lenses. At least that is my experience with the A7 and SAM 85 2.8. Not sure if the Sony 28-75 would be any better.

The only advantage of the side-hinge I can think of is for the situation where you might want the screen facing forward (selfie or vlogging mode) with the built-in flash popped up or a...

I use the A77II which has broadly the same screen implementation as the A99II and I've never had a problem using the flip-out screen with a tripod. In fact because you can lift it up over the EVF...

I've used the A77, A77II and A37 and I've never seen ghosting linked to the SLT mirror.

As a user of both, I have to say that these A-mount bodies just handle so much nicer than the E-mount bodies such as the A7 and for that reason alone I'm happy that Sony is continuing with the line.

Thanks for the advice - I will have to see what transfer speeds I am getting - my cards are pretty fast. Generally I am copying from the card reader directly via the PC to the external drive ...

Quick question, my Dell PC has USB 3 ports but also a SD card reader. I have always used the PC's integrated card reader to transfer photos from my camera to the PC. Am I right to assume that this ...

It's not a camera for me, I won't be buying. I'm not knocking the IBIS or the AF system, but quite frankly, for $1400 (even more here in Europe) I think buyers can indeed expect better...

You can't add 5-axis IBIS or a new processing chip via a firmware update.

But seriously it seems like Sony missed a chance to introduce a more meaningful upgrade to the A6300, including ergonomic...

ekaton it's not the same thing. I have the first gen RX100 and I can just put it in my jeans pocket when I go to a rock concert and take acceptable pictures, if I'm close to the front of the crowd....

Sam Santana why is it relevant whether a sports photographer would shoot raw or jpg? For most of us amateurs/enthusiasts using this site, it's of no relevance. I don't get this obsession some have...
