I think Sony should also sell more traditional technology DSLR, they should continue making the transparet mirror and also have regular mirror cameras this will give Sony fans the chance to choose what they want and not be forced to choose wether to go with Sony or other company like I had to choose.The a99 has to loose some light, the RX1 doesn't because it's a mirrorless. But all SLT's use up some light for the EVF. That's how they work, and there is no getting around it. Maybe the a99 has a more transmissive beam splitter, but nonetheless, the problem is absolutely intrinsic to SLT.
Also, it never was 30% of all light, it's 1/3 of one stop of light, so theoretically - 1/3 of 1/2 of the total light at the exit aperture of the lens, closer to 16%.
What bothers me about the SLT isn't so much that some light is lost, but rather that it is compensated post-exposure without option to instead bias the meter. If I could do that, then I'd be much more inclined to accept SLT.
I was really sad to sell all my lenses that I already aquired in the 3 years I had my a300 and it took me a while to get used to my new Nikon.
I was so used to Sony and was comfortable with this brand I was not happy on moving to a new brand.
