@BlueHefnerWhookid Well, the NEX-7 has a better EVF (2.4 mio dots) and a newly developed control system. I'm pretty sure it was expensive as hell to develop, so the price is okay (even compared to the OMD-EM5 or the X-Pro 1), but yeah, since it's cheap to just use a A65 body with A55 functions and a new EVF, this camera is also cheap. Don't get me wrong - A57 is a great camera with great value! This pricing just makes sense for Sony.
They always get better and better.
That auto cropping feature is pretty nice and something really unique!
would the auto portrait feature be available on the a77 or a65 on the next update? i hope it would be there. it also is a good feature.
does anyone know the exact day this comes out??
@VariantAEC lol, what camera did you get?
@AlotLikeAsteroid
The a55. Its awsome don't get me wrong but if I only waited I would have got this new variation for the same price.
I like the smaller size of the A55. However, the new EVF seems a lot better - really want to compare it to the EVFs in the A65/77 or NEX-7.
Is it worthy today? I Wana buy one
I just bought it
799? Holycow, im buying this over 60d
Having the hardest time finding an external flash ! None of them fit my a57

2:19 - 2:21 : Music to my ears.
Leonard?
Cool
If I had just waited 3 more months.
Sony alpha is the best
So this for $800 or Nex 7 for $1500
Don't care Sony. Get working on a full frame equivalent and more lenses!
Now Sony King 👑👑👑👑
