[ferraripanama]

rip canon

[Xyb3rTeCh]

the buttons on the battery grip might be confusing but its convinient

[sbs260]

true. it does not offer as much range as canon BUT

it still has the greatest lens ever *zeiss*

and im sure theirs more to come! *the legendary minolta lenses are compatible as well*

also its not like sony was in the camera business for like 30 years or something.

sony only been here for 4 years. 4 YEARS!!!

Thats pretty damn good for one of the highest megapix camera. and they did it in less than 4 years.

canon could have never achieved that in 4 years

you gotta give sony some credit

[AIDSbanana]

umm no...this camera has horrible high iso noise compared to canon's offerings (i.e. 5d mk II) and this camera also doesn't offer the range of canon's L series of lenses, among other things.

I like it retro styling

[PD2JK]

Yes, so you better not smoke when taking pictures. ;)

is magnesium not flammable?

[epics7]

No. d700 and canon 5dII. 5dII have 21 mp.

[HologramJones]

Well, if you wanna call a magnesium weather sealed body weighing 850g, plasticky, you have some issues with gravity. And I think it was the right decision not to have an integrated body grip as some people who want a pro body actually feel the D3 is too big for them. So Sony gives them the option to chose.
