Tempting actually. Would it be a big difference between this and a brand new A550? |

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 |
