Yap, even the minolta image database has pictures of A2. Feature set should be the same. A1 being a 5 MP while A2 is a 8 MP. Someone mentioned that A2 using Sony 8 MP sensor, can someone put some link to verify. Because the sensor on A1 is a progressive CCD which is different from many digital camera (including Sony). Minolta may want to continue this sensor. I have no idea. :dunno:
