7 months ago |if it was the body only, I’d be all over it, but I don’t want the 16-50mm. Hopefully Adorama will follow… I already have it pre-ordered there (with grip).
Garreth
7 months ago |I thought you were getting the cz16-35? I have it. It’s very nice.
Ken
7 months ago |I still can’t decide. There’s a local guy selling his CZ 1635, if I can get a deal, I might just go that route
Garreth
7 months ago |and wait for the a99? I’m starting to question skipping the a77 too and waiting to see the rumours on the a99. If the price gets down to under $2500 body only I might wait.
Admin- more full frame rumours coming soon? pretty please?
Wong
7 months ago |Yeah, on the same boat as you. I do want a Full Frame, so the rumoured A99 is what I would like. I would usually wait for the better stuff, but, I have one huge dilemma. I’m going on an oversea trip soon and I would like to have a camera with me.
Admin – like Garreth, any news on the full frame?

7 months ago |I called J&R, the assistance said A77 kit would be shipped after Nov. 4, I ordered by phone and got $100 dollar off. Only paid 1899 (^_^)
Ollder
7 months ago |There’s a few body only packages in my country but i’m waiting for kit with 16-50. And perhaps a slight price degrease…or maybe i have to turn on 17-50 “pirates” later on. Because of shortage of money

7 months ago |1150€ @redcoon.es
That’s exactly what I mean: it should be around € 1000. Why are prices in Europe so much higher? I’m sure there’s an explanation for it, but I don’t know it. Does anybody here?

7 months ago |I bought the a55 last year and promised myself I would upgrade. Tried ordering from Amazon but was not able to… left a “notify me” but they probably didn’t have time to send the email before they sold out this morning!!!…
I already have an a77 and Vertical Grip from DigitalRev in Hong Kong but it is a PAL model. Paid $1329 for the a77 body (shipped and delivered – grip was $260) for it but decided I want the US NTSC model so have ordered an a77 body from Simply Electronics for $1499.99.
Shipping PAL model back next week.
No problems with the a77… beautiful camera… ordered a SAL 2470ZA ($1539 from Simply Electronics) to go with it. Lens should arrive next week.
SAR is a great website and I particularly enjoy the comments of people far more experienced and knowledgable than I am about photography.

7 months ago |I received an a77 body ($1355) and Vertical Grip ($270) from DigitalRev in Hong Kong last Wednesday. Great prices and service. Unfortunately it is a PAL camera. My a55 is a PAL camera (purchased in Moscow) and it is a bit of a problem hooking up to my US NTSC TV to view video… doesn’t work!
Sooo, the a77 camera is going back next week. I’ve ordered an a77 body from Simply Electronics for $1499.99. Wish I’d caught the Amazon ones… I am on their “notify me” list but it probably sold out so fast the email didn’t get sent.
That being said the a77 is a beautiful piece of kit!!!… took a few test photos in the house using Eye-fi card… downloaded automatically to my PC very quickly.
Love the camera so decided paying the extra money to get a US NTSC version was probably worth it. Also purchased the SAL 2470ZA ($1539 vs $1799.99 at Amazon) to go with it.
Love the SAR website and particularly the comments from people who obviously know far more about photography than I do.

7 months ago |Sony Canada says : This item is Backorderable Estimated ship date: 01/17/2012. WOW!!!!!
I think I will wait for the replacement of the a77 it might take less time. I’m f#$king pissed!
I can’t wait to buy a 6 month old new camera. Fuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuck!!!!!!

7 months ago |Steve S – I’m in Toronto. Order from BH Photo, then. I did.
Steve S
7 months ago |I want to buy local, if there is a problem it’s easier. I buy my stuff in Montréal (lozeau) great place. They don’t know when it will be in stock so I check the Sony store for reference.
I’m starting to think about waiting for the a99, FF could be cool but the price probably won’t !.

7 months ago |Not sure where to post this…Has anybody actually tried to download .ARW files from your A65/77? Does downloading through Sony’s IDC and dowloading straight into Lightroom make a difference? I read somewhere a while back that when you convert Sony’s .ARW files directly into .DNG format, that all the data such as DRO is lost. Reason for me asking…I still transfer the files using Image Data Converter to my PC, then do another conversion into Lightroom.
Just had a shoot today with 300+ .ARW files, and it has taken 7 hours to transfer the files to my PC! If this is how it is going to be, I may just wait to get the A55 replacement. If somebody knows something that I don’t, please share. My PC is running Vista 64 bit on an AMD quad core processor with 8GB of RAM.
Ollder
7 months ago |Hey, you have the camera and all necessary software. Why in hell you don’t shoot couple of (test) pictures and try. By yourself! … And then you could tell us all the results
Mike
7 months ago |What are you talking about? There are plenty of people already shooting with 65/77. If you can’t help out, please don’t reply with unclassy language. Obviously, if I was versed enough to try it myself, it would have been done.
mike
7 months ago |Anyone have an idea of when to expect a99 and other than being full frame, has Sony got any other whip snappy tricks up their sleeve for this camera that would be a compelling reason to skip the A77 altogether
Robert W
7 months ago |Thanks for the updates. I ordered my A77 kit from BH Photo this afternoon. I’ve been obsessing over A77 rumors on this site since August 2010. Now what will I do. Guess it’s time to start saving for the A99. ;^)
Clifton
7 months ago |I am sort of tempted to wait for a FF camera, the more I think about it, the more sense it makes to my photography. Sadly it doesn’t make sense to my wallet. As far as the release of the A99 goes, there was rumour (have have even been confirmed by sony) that news of it would be released early 2012. If this remains true considering the recent happenings in Thailand is anyones guess.
Clifton

7 months ago |Those of you thinking about getting the SONY A77… stop thinking and start buying! This is a fabulous camera and I have it from a Sony dealer that after this last batch is gone there won’t be any more until mid-late January. Sony had some stock at he port when the flooding came but after those are gone, that’s it! BUT NOW! We have sample photos on our web site. Go to the SONY|Minolta tab at http:www.abetterdj.net
