Tempting actually. Would it be a big difference between this and a brand new A550?
Minolta V2 + Dynax 7D / Sony A35 ~ Minolta 24mm 2.8 + 28-135mm 4-4.5 + 50mm 1.4 + 70-210mm 4 / Sony 18-55mm 3.5-5.6 / Sony HVL-F36AM

For those who is thinking of selling A700, I suggest don't sell. Keep it as spare/backup would be more worthwhile than selling it now.

It is a good price, considering its feature.
My take on this, there's nothing wrong with a700 now, why sell it?
Unless you're upgrading to FF.

i guess pple are looking at it this way: a500 is around 1k, why would a 2year model should be more than that?
they're forgetting that a5xx and a700 isn't targetted at the same market segment, with different body build/case materials, etc
a5xx wins in terms of noise, but hey.. a700 is not doing too badly for a 2 year model...
a700 has AF illuminator, dual-dial for comfortable full manual control.
a700 sucks in AWB, but there are ways of getting ard that, again, not bad for a 2 year model.

We'll have to wait and see how much sony would price a7xx replacement.
I don't think it's gonna be much higher than a5xx price (below a850 of course), hence making a700 a good compromise between a5xx and a new a7xx
