Took the plunge and got the A550. No $$$ for A850, and anyway, it's not much of a deal (same price, only give extra batt). Need a DSLR for holiday shots (dun want to lug film for the ol' Dynax 7) and the deal is good. Heck, some of the 2nd hand deals in the buy/sell forum are more exp than...

Aiyah, doncha know? Singapore is always late for the good stuff...;)

Ooh now I'm REALLY interested. How much did you get the 70-200 for? ;)

I happen to be going to HK quite often these days due to my project. Where's a good place to buy lenses in HK, ah?

Looking after kid and busy with work. :sweat: Someone *finally* took my old 600si off my hands recently, so now starting to be "ngian" again. Browsing here and there, then saw the A700 preview on dpreview. Suddenly realised how backward my news is on Sony/KM stuff! :o Anyway, will look...

I am indeed very interested in the new A700. Didn't have the interest in digital photography when the 7D first came out (sorry, 35mm snob, still love my 7 best). And what with all the trouble with KM changing hands, I'm not too comfortable plonking down good money for the 5D or 7D. I liked...

Bye bye old friend. :(

UY79 beat me to the draw :o Here's what I found ;) http://www.sds.com/mug/ http://www.photodo.com/prod/lens/minolta.shtml Minolta Yahoo Group http://groups.yahoo.com/group/minolta/ For the manual SLR users http://members.aol.com/manualminolta/minslr.htm Photo.net's Minolta...

On a related note, has anyone seen the 100-300mm f/4.5-5.6 APO D on sale of late? Thinking of buying... ;p

Hey vivien, How much is MS selling it for? Thanx. ;)

Ah sodesuka! ;) No wonder there's no separate QD model on the B&H website! Should've guessed the stupid CP guy was pulling a fast one. Ok lah, I just use them for benchmarking prices, that's all. :)

Can't remember. Din see his name tag either. Now, are you saying there's no such thing as a QD version (i.e. all 7s are QD anyway)? :o

Hee... :) I used this on my 600si only about 5-6 times. Haven't touched it in years.

BTW, I asked viv, coz the CP guy was quick to emphasize that his set was a QD model. Wanted to compare apple to oren. Maybe that justifies the *ahem* inflated price. :bigeyes: AP = Alex Photo in this case. Alan Photo is in SLS. ;)
