Product Rating: 2.5 star(s) Sony DSLR-A700

Comments:
The A700 has excellent image quality, but is let down by design quirks and the high price.

Review Verdict: While this doesn't pose a problem for the A100, which is pitched against low-end models such as the Nikon D40, the A700's price means it has to compete against cameras designed to allow instant changes to settings. As such, it's a source of irritation tha

Product Rating: 5 star(s) Sony Alpha A700

Comments:
Sony is serious about its SLRs. The A100 was a fair effort, with a resemblance to the Dynax 5D Sony inherited from its takeover of Konica Minolta, but the A700 is a whole new camera

Review Verdict: The low noise, 5fps shooting, and build quality are awesome. Then you admire that amazing LCD. Then you begin to appreciate the depth, subtlety and richness of Sony's new sensor. The Nikon D300 had better be good, and Canon must be glad the 40D is cheaper

Pros: Good LCD, Improved overall spec, Decent value for money

Sonyâ-'s Alpha A700; A Remarkably Fast 12-Megapixel D-SLR

Comments:
In spite of its vast range of options for modifying every aspect of an image, the A700 can produce pleasing images at default settings, although exposure compensation is often useful with light-toned scenes.

Product Rating: 4.45 star(s) New Zealand PC World Magazine > Sony Alpha 700 digital SLR

Comments:
Sony's first foray into the world of digital SLR cameras, the A100, was a solid effort let down by a comparatively poor sensor that couldn't deliver good images across a wide enough ISO spectrum. With the A700, Sony has been considerably more ambitious, p

Review Verdict: The A700 certainly feels the goods when you use it. Buttons are well placed, and despite using the rear LCD for displaying settings rather than a top-mounted LCD, as is the fashion now, the A700 still allows you to access most critical features via button

Product Rating: 4.75 star(s) New Zealand PC World Magazine > REVIEW: Sony Alpha DSLR-A700

Comments:
It's been over two years since Sony released the Alpha DSLR-A100K, its first digital single-lens reflex (DSLR) camera. The DSLR-A100K was a good camera based on technology that Sony acquired from Konica Minolta's DSLR division, but two years is a long tim

Review Verdict: The DSLR-A700 lens kit includes a 16mm to 105mm f/3.5-f/5.6 lens

Sony's recent entry into the DSLR market has been greeted fairly positively. Its first effort, the A100, is on our A List, and its second, this A700, hopes to repeat the same trick. But the competition is tough, as its price pitches it squarely against Ca

Review Verdict: Excellent image quality, but let down by some irritating design quirks and the high price.

Product Rating: 3 star(s) Sony Alpha DSLR-A700

Comments:
Sony has released the latest product in its Alpha line, the Alpha DSLR-A700. With some important upgrades and a number of changes, the DSLR-A700 aims at a different type of photographer than the type that would use the DSLR-A100K. Hoping to lure advanced

Review Verdict: The Sony Alpha DSLR-A700 is close to being a strong competitor in the DSLR market. It can produce good images, but it's obvious when using the camera that Sony does not have the legacy of interface development that Canon and Nikon have. The DSLR-A700 has

Product Rating: 3 star(s) Sony Alpha DSLR-A700 12Mp SLR camera

Comments:
The Sony Alpha DSLR-A700 digital SLR is a complex, well-made camera with tons of controls. The A700 takes exceptionally sharp, well-exposed shots.

Review Verdict: With its sharp, 12Mp imaging and with more exposure controls than most photographers - amateur or professional - will likely use, the beefy and finely designed Sony Alpha DSLR-A700 rises to nearly pro-level photography, making it well worth its £1,1...
