Sony just announced today a Full Frame 24MP Sony Alpha A-850 for 1999.99...
Would this draw prices from the Canon's 5D MKii & Nikon's D700's Down a bit to compete?
Here are some Spec of the New Sony...
"The a850, as suspected, is more or less a carbon copy of Sony's a900 full-frame DSLR. That's the same 24.6-megapixel sensor, and what looks like the exactly same bodyit even claims full accessory compatibility with the a900. The only noticeable difference is that the a850 will run just under $2000, in November, for just the body, making it a decently cheap option for someone with a bunch of Minolta glass laying around, and a hankering for a full-frame DSLR."
I've always been curious about the sony A900 but the prices for the lenses have pushed me away... FAR FAR AWAY.. i love my nikon!!!!
