The A-700 replacement looks very much like a mix between a nikon3000 and a sony alpha 550. Ik hope it wil be a real pro APS-C like the nikon 300D or Canon 7d. Fast, Magnesium weather sealed body, 50 or more AF points, 100% viewfinder, 8 fps, and at least noise free op to ISO 3200 in RAW. I’m not interested in filming. And it would be great if the A-700 vertical grip would fit.

Sony did us a favor by trimming out almost all the cheap zooms and unnecessary overlap that had accumulated in Minolta’s line. And thankfully, they’ve added a 50/1.7 with APS coverage, which is already taming the ridiculous prices of used, full-frame 50/1.7s.

One lens that was sadly missing is the excellent 28/2. I bet the 24mm is meant to rectify that situation.

The interchangeable-lens minis look they have a mock-up mount. I was going to suggest the Vectis mount, but the sensor seems much too close to the mount.
