I used to have a Maxxum 5 and was plannig an upgrade to either 5D or 7D. The first had some limitations (like the lcd resolution) and the last was a little expensive. When I saw that Sony had bought Konica’s Digital Camera technology I couldn’t believe that a camera with so many resouces could cost 1000 bucks. Taking advantage of being in US and of the Prime benefits, I deciced to buy the first release and so far I have absolutelly no complaints. I have taken many great pictures so far with the 18-70 mm that comes with the camera and with my old lenses that I used to use with my old Maxxum 5. The anti-shake technology is unbelievable! Allows great zooms with image perfection.
