The a700 is a 12 megapixel camera with a CMOS sensor, tested here with an optional 24-70mm Zeiss lens with constant f2.8 maximum aperture. There is in-camera image stabilisation and automatic dust removal. It has eye-proximity start-up – when an eye...
Picture quality is consistently superb. The camera itself is responsive, producing well exposed, high resolution images. The lens focuses quickly and is mechanically superior in every way. The constant maximum aperture of f2.8 is the mark of a high cla...
The only reservation we have is to do with the price. $2000 for the body is a bargain, several hundred dollars less than its obvious rival, the Nikon D300. But the price of avoiding the indifferent Sony standard lenses in favour of the superb Zeiss/Son...
We had an important little job to do, for which we would normally use our own camera. It is usually too risky to pick up a new camera for such a project, but the Sony felt so right in the hand and the lens was so seductive that we said: “What the he...

Traditionally the SLR space has been relatively small. Many companies havent been willing to play in a market dominated by Canon and Nikon, but more recently Sony has jumped into the fray. The Alpha A700 is the companys second model and takes its spo...
Sharp pictures, good noise control, colours well balanced, speedy operation, sensor based stabilisation...
Some minor chromatic aberration issues, no live view, no second LCD display The Final Word The Alpha A700 puts Sony firmly in contention with the other big SLR players with its combination of great image quality, a robust feature set and a sturdy design.
