I just upgraded my camera! I got the a700! So I went outside and shot some panning shots of cars.......this thing is a big upgrade from the a200. I could never figure out Manual Mode on the a200, but its alot easier on the a700. 2 seperate controls for the exposure and aperture makes a huge difference. I am really excited, now I am just waiting on my Carl Zeiss lens to come in and I will be in business....
