My bumper sticker would say "m42 4 life"

Relatively. The biggest problem I have is that I cannot use my whole selection of manual focus lenses without an infinity-corrected adapter.

It's a bit noisy at above ISO 400. What exactly is your point?

I just like to know where the hate is coming from. Do you do post-process?

Man...I thought the Canon versus Nikon threads were drama-filled....

This Sony A77 versus A Real Camera thread is like the second one in two weeks...lots of exciting fanboy claims being bandied back and forth, back and forth!!

I think I'm going to have some vinyl bumper stickers made up, "Sony A77 versus A Real Camera", and sell them for $6 a pop!

It looks like you have no idea what a real camera is. You even looking through your VF and holding the camera wrong.

HAHAHAHA! :lmao: Ah Derrel, you really are the best!!! Skieur and ArgieRamos will appreciate this.

Stop sucking his balls dude.....

What does post processing have to do with anything?! Yeah, I expose to the right, so yes. I "post process".

My distrust of SLT comes from 1/3-1/2 stop decreased signal. Was I not clear?

aside from looking like they used a potato for a lens, if you look in the tall bushes you'll find a LOT of noise here. Maybe it'd be normal at ISO 400, but, low and behold:

it's ISO 100. I even ran it through Raw Photo Processor, which tends to be a bit more precise than the software that comes from Sony.

Yeah. It's *really* noisy, and even at ISO 100.

Sony A77 Review - Conclusion | PhotographyBLOG


"The inclusion of full 1080p movies, built-in GPS, 12fps burst shooting, dual control dials, top-panel LCD and an excellent 3-way rear screen make the A77 our new favourite prosumer DSLR."


and also, "There are some limitations of this ambitious design, most notably the almost complete inability to pan with your subject and rather noticeable jumps in focus if using continuous auto-focus during video recording, but overall the new A77 feels more mature and well-rounded than the first generation."


"the almost complete inability to pan with your subject"--that's why I was trying to make clear to the Number One Sony A77 Fan almost two weeks ago: specifically, that a 1/10 second lag in the viewfinder display and the actual action occurring in front of the camera, makes this camera USELESS as a professional sports or action camera. But all he could seem to comprehend was the A77's high FPS rate...and he was consistently unable to grasp the reason why a camera that can NOT show what the lens is framing is USELESS for professional sports or action work.

A camera that can not follow along with a moving subject because the viewfinder's refresh rate is too slow to keep up with moving subjects???? OH, yeah baby, sign me up! NOT! As the reviewer's correctly state, the Sony A77 is a very nice prosumer camera. Their favorite prosumer model. For $1,400, it seems like a lot of camera, but yet the limitations of the SLT system and the slug-like viewfinder based on a video feed are still issues that the new technology does not handle the way the real "professional", traditional cameras have been developed to do over the past 60 years or so.

I'd like to take the opportunity to point out that just your username alone is enough to destroy any credibility of your posts, yet Derrel holds a much higher level of respect so I don't think it's likely anybody will hold your ass-backwards opinions over his.

I would watch your attitude and how you treat well respected members. It will get you banned if you keep this up.

"the almost complete inability to pan with your subject"

So even if continuous AF were important, what's the point if the finder can't keep up?

Respect for someone who obviously trying to troll on here by saying a77 is not a real camera? If you don't treat people with respect, dont expect get some in return. You can ban me from here for all I care, I can still come back.

Who said that ISO 100 is really noisy?
What firmware version is the a77?

Pathetic. You failed to include some positive feedback about the camera like "excellent image quality, destroy the competitor" etc..
Tell me first, what is the real camera to you?
