Yeah ... again .. SONY really "SHOW HAND"  

Poor Man FF ...  that 24MP sensor already worth more then $2K la..  ( D3X is $4K more then D3 )

Aiya .. SB ..  as you said .. ENTRY buyer ..  rather then MP .. they dont know other la..

What will be the target buyer?  DSLR user who can tell people they are using a 24MP camera ...

This is what usually the FIRST question people ask me .. when they see me taking pic-->such as:


Nice camera, how many MP?

Nice camera, how much?


People wont ask " is it weather proof ? is it 100% view finder? is it 1/200 syn or 1/250 syn? is it good for low light AF ?? "

Funny that Canon is going the other way, look at the new G11, more target to "experienced" DC user ....

Anyway, since it is a SONY, it won't sell well in here anyway ..  but will sell tons in Mainland!

When I first saw $800 price tag for a F2.8 lens ..  I was "WOW" .. but then, it is a tamron .... ( which is a good lens as well )

Now ...  question ..  same price ..  D300s ....    tough tough ..  if Nikon better know how to make sensor themself ..

A850 is bargain tim la... Sony probably charges Nikon $2K for the sensor alone!

I guess same as PS3, Sony is not making money on the body, but games.

Now Sony has the very best sensor, very best optic, good flash system ..  next question is,
how about the buyer?

( by the way, the entry level Ferrari now, is the California! )
