The A700 with V4 firmware

(KB - 7/9/09)

With the new firmware update this really put the A700 in a new class, I have owned the a700 for 2 years and in fact just picked up another one for backup purposes , only other brand I would consider is Pentax.
Reasons to own the Sony line in body stabilization the ability to use Minolta Glass. Overall IQ the A700 is a lot of bang for the buck.
If don't have one and you are considering a DSLR that will last for years then get a A700.
