Sony really needed to hit a home run with this, and it surely didn\'t. Maybe a double.
Since its not even available for sell in the U.S. yet, how can you tell what they hit?
We can tell a good deal from what the specs are, and the two field reviews that are out already.
We know pretty much that the body is good, but not a pro body, based on the older a700. We know that the image quality is about the same as the soon to be discontinued 1Ds mkII, and seems likely to be noticably poorer than the 5D mkII.
We also know it doesn\'t do video, which now seems to be a \"hot\" feature, esp. on the 5D mkII.
This doesn\'t seem remotely like a home run to me.
