Yes. I do not know the specifications on the 7, maybe it's faster - I kind of doubt it.

My subjects don't move, and I have never been so bold to conclude that the 7 is a professional-ready platform. For me, the delay is suitable provided that image quality isn't affected.

My problem with the SLT's delay is that any advantage that you gain from continuous exposure, you loose in delay. Without a short film to flange distance, there is no advantage to an SLT body.

It's funny that you have problem with SLT delay with the fact that you never got your hands on one.

I don't see anything for you to complain when it comes to panning.

You just saw that "delay" thing from one of the previous post, and now it is your problem? You're obvious bro lol

DO YOU EVER GO DO SCHOOL????

I just realised something, here I am arguing with a boy who finds it hard to even write properly! It really isn't worth the effort, I think Skieur should take you on as an apprentice though.

Huh? This guy lol. You're not making sense. If you want my attention, all you have to do is ask. The question was not even for you.
"DO YOU EVER GO DO SCHOOL?" Talks about writing properly. :)

Unless you are accusing me of pushing exposure in post, I don't see what difference it should make.

But for the record, I did answer your question. I ETTR, so yes, I do; but any edits I do make are subtractive.

As I told you, I am trying to see things through your point of view. I just don't get why simple things matter to you so badly.
I am also an a350 owner just like you. It's one of my back up camera. Complaining about the ISO400 being noisy makes me think that you're not using your camera properly. I start seeing noise on ISO800 but I do post-process on every picture so I am not complaining. If your standard is really that high when it comes to noise, get the k5 then.

Skieur - do you think that the a99 really will be maskless? I've read the rumor that it will be a 3mos. But I am not sure I believe that. What are your thoughts?

Now you're trying to play nice with Skieur, and asking his thoughts about the a99. You hate the SLT tech right? Haters gonna hate, no matter how good the a99 will be.
I bet I will see you here again when the a99 comes out and start bashing it. lol

yeah! i don't even know why anyone even bothers to meter anymore. we have HDR!

Do you have auto-HDR? On what camera? :)

Very good!

That is how you write.. I was mocking you! But your peanut brain couldn't process it. Your profile photo says it all... BRAINLESS! I saw one of your photos you posted for C and C, it was soft and underexposed, this is proof you have no credentials to criticise respected forum members.
 
Grow up people, enough of this "my dick is bigger then yours" bs. If you don't knock it off my dad is gonna beat up your dad. ;-)

The a77 isn't the best thing since sliced bread, but you get what you're paying for and a whole lot more.
 
There will always be some delay between the EVF and the lens. If Sony can speed this up to ideally 1/60s, or even 1/30 sec, it won't be a problem since our eyes can't perceive that rate anyway. Until then though, I just cannot call the a77 a remotely "professional" option, unless all your subjects are stationary.

The refresh rate is 60Hz, correct me if I'm wrong but that should equate to 1/60 of a second.
 
In the video it says it works better than any other SLT camera, isn't Sony the only firm that makes an SLR with an SLT viewfinder :lol:

At ISO 400, I consider the a350 acceptable for general photography, start around ISO 800 I need to take into account noise. The a350 is a notoriously noisy body, and has always been the complaints about it. If you're accustomed to the a350, then perhaps it makes sense that you don't mind the a77.

This isn't to say that the a350 is a bad camera, it has excellent image quality below ISO 400, it handles nicely and is a good mid-end body. I'll prob. continue to use my a350 for some time yet since the NEX-7 is not yet available and is a bit expensive for me atm.

I'm not a hater. A maskless sensor will have considerably lower noise, especially if it's a 3mos sensor, as it has been suggested (though I doubt this). Maskless sensors have SO many advantages over masked sensors that if true, the a99 would be extremely attractive. A masked sensor does all sorts of funny business you're not even aware of.

Until a camera spits out a 32 bit EXR, it's not HDR.

I don't know why cameras don't actually. EXR is an open format and any camera which has these silly "hdr" features should have all the resources necessary to generate a real hdr file. It would hardly cost anything to implement this feature.

argieramos - go play somewhere else. You're so far out of your league in this thread it's not even funny. Most of us here are adults, and those who are not are able to act like one. We're talking about cameras, not football teams. This isn't your highschool and there isn't any need to be true to your school.

It depends on what 60hz is referring to. I am guessing that is refresh rate, not frame rate which is usually stated in frames per second and is likely dependent on available light.

There is a new type of diode called a avalanche photodiode which would be ideal for this kind of setting, provided that noise levels would be acceptable. I'd expect avalanche photodiode arrays to be used in pellicle slrs in the future once they are commercially viable.

Underexposed? Soft? I guess you missed the part when I said it is processed and edited with an iPhone apps. Try editing some with your phone. lol.
Which of us is acting like a li'l boy now. I never said I am the best in taking pictures, so your statement don't mean anything.
My profile photo says what? haha! It is just a regular picture taken by me. Isn't that animal looks cute? I am not hiding anything. If you have bad comments about my pictures, feel free to say it. I like to get better and better.
With your way of thinking dude, you wont be able to bring me down. Try harder. Oh you were mocking me? Excuses, excuses... Hahaha!

Excuses, excuses. Hahaha!
