    • Pros: Good LCD, Improved overall spec, Decent value for money
    • Cons: Supplied zoom lens not the best
    • Comments:
      Sony is serious about its SLRs. The A100 was a fair effort, with a resemblance to the Dynax 5D Sony inherited from its takeover of Konica Minolta, but the A700 is a whole new camera...

      by Ben Long, IDG
    • Comments:

    • Comments:
      Sony has released the latest product in its Alpha line, the Alpha DSLR-A700. With some important upgrades and a number of changes, the DSLR-A700 aims at a different type of photographer than the type that would use the DSLR-A100K. Hoping to lure advanced...
