Sony Alpha DSLR-A700 Review

November 28, 2007 | by Ian Bell

This sweet 12MP DSLR camera gets a thorough inspection by David Elrich and proves to be a winner. Check out our review!

Snip:

"Pick up the DSLR-A700 and immediately you’ll know this a heavy-duty camera, not like the much lighter entry-level—and cheaper--D-SLRs such as the Canon Rebel XT or Nikon D40. Not that these are bad cameras just they’re in a different league. The alpha weighs 24.3 ounces for the body only (no battery or lens). When combined with a high-quality lens like the Carl Zeiss T* 16-105mm zoom and battery, you now have close to 3 pounds hanging around your neck. Like all D-SLRs carrying one is a commitment, not a spur of the moment thing like a Canon ELPH. Yet ELPHs and their ilk are for very different people—if you’re spending $1,399 USD for a camera body, you’re really into photography, expect a high-quality instrument and sore arms are just part of the fun."
