a500 considered as entry level??

Given the launch of the a5xx it's one of the upcoming bodies to look out for.

Wonder if they'll go the a700 route to incorporate as many new features into the body.

Standard thing, improvement of sensor would definitely be there. The other thing I believe would be is > 5fps. The rest, while... Your guess would as good as mine...

Well..

Let's put it this way..

a900 is not even considred real 'Pro' camera.

Anyway how do you even define that it's a 'Pro' body?? Should it be a body that is well built & easy to use with great output or a body with functions you have never even heard of??

i think if there is ever a blind test of pics, i can bet that no one can tell what cameras are used for each pic....

You'd never know that someone's going to a meeting with a client with a Mamiya medium format and a C1 digital back... then back to the studio... he uses a cheap camera and gets the job done.

To a pro - a camera that gets the job done reliably is pro enough.
