Okay, I've demo'ed the A900 @ Sony Centre Wisma. With the 24-70, it's no joke. Heavy!
Am a bit disappointed with AF speed, though. Was quite sluggish, even at AF Drive Mode Fast. Read some magazines at Kino after that. A few reviews out. All seem to report issues of noise at high ISO and that it's not particularly suited for sports or wedding photography (where fast AF is essential).
I guess I'll be waiting for the next generation Alpha FF?

strange .. i find it a bit faster than A700 le....focusing also better
Odd, my impression is the exact opposite. I feel it locks focus faster than on the A700 and that it's PERFECT for wedding photography.

sorry backtrack slightly on the APS-C mode. So will there be noticable differences when a DT lens is used on the A900 ?
I was thinking would the DT lens affects the view on viewfinder.
And would there be cropping of the effective lens ? Meaning , since the DT lens focal length of lens are effectively 1.6 times of that of FF. Would that still apply if APS-C mode is turned on ?
Sorry for the multiple questions ... sheesh

Yes, of course the DT affects when you see in the viewfinder. Cropping would still be in place.

Buy buy buy, u wanta pay for me hah? :bsmilie:
Source? AF speed decided by the power of the motor inside... unless the AF algorithm can be improved... then a firmware update would work...
High chance it can... but probably only in very specific situations like low light or motion tracking etc. Both of these situations require some extrapolation based on prior data, so it's probably possible to improve the accuracy and speed. (and also a matter of whether sony wants to do it or not)
