Been spending a lot of time on here!
With the a700 grip having not depreciated AT ALL, I was wondering if I can use a third party a77 grip?
According to dpreview, the a77's footprint is a hair bit larger than the a700, and I've read of unspecified "simple modifications" to make the a700 grip fit onto the a77. I'm wondering if anyone knows what these modications were - is it a matter of filing down the edge opposite the horizontal grip to make it fit better onto the slightly larger a77 body? But people do say that the electrical connections work, and the two cameras do use the same batteries. With a very slightly larger footprint, perhaps the a77 grip could fit onto the a700, like a younger sibling borrowing clothes...
Any ideas?
