Apparently, in UK & Japan, Sony had to remove the grip sensor due to nickel content, thus releasing only in november. If SG release about the same time, highly likely will suffer the same fate.

November :sweat::sweat:
And i thought can be in time to see the release in Singapore, sell some stuffs to cough up the money, and get the A700 before the photomarathon on Oct 20th ..:sweat:

Could be some case of Rohs (restriction of hazardous Substance) violation from part suppliers..?:dunno:

I dont think the camera designers would overlook such strict requirements.
The Grip sensor is really a good feature to have.

Our ongoing thanks to everyone posting comments on this forum – we very much appreciate your feedback.

Regarding Operating Instructions manuals for α700, they are now available at Sony eSupport. We’ll also be making other useful materials shortly.

We’ve also noticed questions on the AF Grip Sensor in other areas, and we can confirm that α700 in the European market does no include this feature. The reason for this difference in versions is nickel content in the grip sensor and European regulations regarding nickel usage. This doesn’t effect α700 in other areas.

Also please note items discussed on this blog are about US products. However comments regarding products outside the US have passed along to our colleges in Europe and Asia.

Again, thank your for you feedback. Your comments have not been unnoticed.
