Minolta doesn't exist anymore...Konica bought them and the combined company is known as KM (they still make lenses, just not in the old Minolta factory that Sony bought)

And your point is?

New Canon tech...congratulations with your oxymoron.

Any chance that Canon was the only one that applied for that certificate?

Giving us zebras etc....is this rare, it seems that is normal for all makers of video cameras except DSLRs?

I can't wait to see what Sony is going to do with this sensor...lots of speculation but I am sure the MF people have a no competition clause for certain amount of time.

Now that you are not at your peak (I assume), is this beast in your future or does the Nikon 1 take care of your needs? Just joking of course

Are they celebrating Buddha or what?

A mount use a 500 battery, much superior to the 50 used in E mount

With the price this is going to cost, paying for a card is the last of your worries (this isn't a nex camera)

If you are a Sony owner of a previous camera, you already own a charger Nah, Nah.

In some light, they look almost black in other light brown black

Really nice behavior shot...can I make a suggestion?  Unless your eagles are different colors than ours, I think your black point may be a a bit off causing the eagles to be chocolate brown.

That PG just pops with color

My favorite of the 2 sets are the blue jays in love (unique combination of colors) and the goofy doe shot.

You can go really cheap and get Samyang lenses that makes those Tamron and Sigma lenses look fit only for an Arab potentate.

Sony's 70/200 amount is $2,999

Yet everyone seems to buy from HongKong or the US and import into Australia because of the high prices.

I guess you haven't bought many Sony A mounts (not counting old PF Minolta lenses from the film era).  Sony A mount are just as expensive or more than the E mount.
