Tops In Its Class

(Christopher Holmes - 5/6/09)

I have owned the A700 for 18 months. This is a wonderful camera. I take it everywhere and have taken approximately 15,000 images with it. 12 MP is more than enough for most print sizes to include poster sizes up to 24" x 36". 5 frames per second captures most of the action I've gone after. Even with the optional battery grip the camera is nicely balanced and the controls are well placed. The viewfinder is very bright and crisp which is great for low light photography. When coupled with the G or Zeis series lenses from Sony it provides images that rival those from any other camera. The built in Super Steady Shot works with every lens you wish to attach to this camera. With the latest firmware updates, it handles low light better and has more useful bracketing options. I highly recommend this camera to those who are truly serious about their photography.
