Quote:Sony has lots of high end A-mount lens goodness but the system is weak in terms of prosumer stuff - which is IMHO the reason for the limited success of the A77/A99.I don't know, to me it seems in the high end the system is kinda weak.
Quote:The AF is fine based on what I have seen.Foto Magazin did another tracking test, in the same fashion as they did years ago, tracking a car at a controlled speed on a specified track with different cameras. Where before the A700 did well with the Sony 70-200mm f2.8 G (although with a low number of shots due to its shot to shot speed), the A99 and A77 did abysmal. The A77 performed worst from all tested combinations, the A99 performed worse than the 7D, 1D-X, D4, D7100 (which did not overly well), nikon 1 V2 (which performed exceptionally well) among others....
Quote:As for video - I'm still considering a DSLR to be an oddity for this purpose. Conceptually it is just not meant to be for this in terms of handling.
