The Sony DSLR-A700

Hey, since I thought my dream camcorder (the EX1) would be a little to expensive for me at this moment, I'm now saving up for an awesome Alpha 700 DSLR from sony!

It's got some very cool features, including:
-3 inch LCD screen with anti-reflection glass
-a 12.2 CMOS sensor with Bionz processor
-Shutter speeds up to 1/8000th of a second, and till ISO 6400 (!)
-HDMI output, and space for compactflash& mem.stick pro duo cards
-Super Steadyshot
-Dinamic Range Optimalization

What do you think about this cam?

And the first think I'm buying is the body, of course, but as a lens I want to buy the awesome Carl Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T* zoomlens, so in the mean time when I'm saving up for the Zeiss, a need a temporary lens.


The Alpha bajonet has exacly the size of the old Minolta cameras, since sony bought conica minolta, so what I could do is just buy such an old lens for 50-100 bucks...
And the Zeiss is a 16-80 lens, so I'd think it'd be nice to have something line a 70-210 lens right?

Yours, WVD
