The exciting new semi-pro DSLR cameras keep coming in. The new one is the Sony Alpha 700.
The interesting thing is that unlike Nikon D300 and Canon 40D, this one does have in-body stabilizer (allowing much slower shutter times without blurry images). And allegedly a much more effective one than any earlier in-body systems. Very kewl.
"I'm also quite aware of Canon's and Nikon's arguments that lens IS is more effective than sensor IS at long focal lengths. It may be, but that's not what I use IS for. I like it as a "virtual tripod" for low-light shooting with normal to medium-wide focal lengths. In combination with high-ISO settings on DSLRs it's a one-two punch that has really opened up new creative possibilities for me." - Mike Johnston
