Yes, whether ff or not, it should be within 16-18mp i guess...and very possible with only 95 or 98% OVF to differentiate it against A900.
A930 supposed to be A900 successor and A1000 supposed to be the other ff with pro specs body like D3/1Dm3.
I don't need a flagship... I just wanted full frame cos I like wide angle... so didn't bother with the A700...
True... Heck! In the end, it may end up as APS sensor. Then we all ... :bheart:

then id be happy because my plans for a900 will not change.

Even if a850 is ff, it still won't beat a900.
Furthermore, the price difference won't be too much esp when it is just launched and makes the a900 a even more attractive option.
I don't think Sony will price a850 too low as they still have to retain that empty slot for future a7xx models.
Also a5xx pricing must be above a3xx, so a850 should be in range of 3300-3800rrp. Rough guess....

unless they play to bring the A7xx models down to the A5xx model level, in other words sony re-doing the numbering system.
I thInk that is a fair assumption, the current numbering need not be a fixed system . By introducing more tiers of products , Sony can target more audiences with the various products . Looking at the current a230 to 380 . They seems to be more entry level than ever. So it will not be surprising if the a700 successors are further segmentised to ff n apsc. Hence giving consumes a choice to go ff at a low cost or get a mid level apsc camera at existing a700 prices

i was talking to a staff at CP, we agreed that the current entry level DSLRs are targeted at women, and the A5xx's will be targeted at men haha.
So A8xx target big man and A9xx targets old man??? :bsmilie:

It can also be with video recording and without video recording.
Anyway... We are all speculating here...
speaking of video, if sony wants to do video on their current DSLR lineup, they will have no choice but to dump the current live view system/spend more R&R on how the heck to incorporate current live view system with video recording.
and for pentaprism DSLRs, the sony LV system cannot be done on those. hence the reason why the a900 no LV in the first place.
I would prefer usable live view than video recording feature.

the problem being nikon and canon having video in almost all their new camera lineups, there is a high chance that sony will follow suit. they wont care if you want usable live view, if they find that adding video recording feature would be a better crowd puller.

yup yup.....same here. :lovegrin:
That will never end bro. And that happen before after A900 was released. :dunno:
Well, im not sure if Sony will follow bilndly. But do you know that Sony is the 1st brand to make liveview better than Canon and Nikon. It didnt have mirror lock up. Well, such complicated mechanism, but sony did it. So maybe sony want to have a better video technology then canon and nikon, so they make some monster which will again Sony is the 1st brand to do this and that. So it takes them time to build in. Who knows they might even invent a internal memory of 1Tb DSLR without use of any CF card. Who knows man. Sony like no others. :bsmilie:
