Geachte heer V.,

Na aanleiding van uw verzoek, heb ik het voor uw onderzocht.

Het klopt dat de DSLR-A700 niet meer beschikbaar zijn.
De vervanging van DSLR-A700 zal tog de Alpha 8-serie’s zijn.

Ik hoop u hiermee voldoende te hebben geinformeerd.

Met vriendelijke groet,

Sony Support

In short:

“True, the DSLR-A700 is no longer available. The DSLR-A700 will be replaced by the Alpha 8 series.”

(SR2) “the a700 successor will have video and AF with video/LV through main sensor.
It will be APS-C and not FF, its display will be a tilting LED and not a LCD and a good OVF.
” (Just speculation or does he really know the truth?)
