  | sent on 04 Marzo 2021 Pros: Excellent image quality, not too heavy files, low noise, excellent ergonomics. Cons: AF points a little too central (and not many if you don't have optics that enable AF-D), AF sometimes not very fast. Opinion: Taken three years ago (I also have an A850), I'm really happy about it. For what I do (print up to 30*45, photo books) the 24 MP is enough and do not send the old Minolta designed that I own into crisis. The files can be easily processed even by a zozzone of postproduction like me, and, thanks to the SLT system, to expose badly you really have to commit yourself. |
 | sent on 24 Aprile 2020 Pros: Almost everything - it's a very good FF - Cons: AF not very fast Opinion: I had this camera which I then replaced with one of the second series. Improved in many things, but with heavier files" (40 mp !) and no GPS (for those who travel is very useful). Then in truth Sony decided to abandon this system by focusing everything on mirrorless !!! This means that it has stopped any development and production of optics. Today you can find the A99 used at good prices. |
 | sent on 23 Aprile 2020 Pros: Definitely good files, quite low noise even at the high ISO, very manageable. Almost intuitive for those who have already used other Sonys. Very useful articulated shermo, light and robust. It doesn't make you regret cameras with multiple megapixels. Found in the used at very affordable prices. Cons: I have not found any flaws but, with all the very useful functions it offers (good thing), it requires a long and careful reading of the manual. The hubs of the screen, all made of plastic, portede for their likely non-infinite life. Opinion: I'm the owner of Sony A 900 and 850 but the recurrences of a brain accident made me very uncomfortable to get close to the scope of these to embrace the framed field while I found myself well, in doing so, with the back screen of my wife's Sony A 57 which is not a FF camera. So, given the need for an FF with the ability to frame with a comfortable screen, I met almost randomly the A 99 who had all the right cards to meet me. Researching I also found the newest A 99 II and I was ready to buy it when I was presented with a great opportunity for a well-maintained and cheap "normal" A 99. The savings were considerable and what I would not have spent would remain available for some optics... I am very happy, the sacrosanct screen has made me return to the world of photography in its own right making me overcome my difficulties!! Since I was already satisfied with the 24 megapixels of my other cameras, and since I don't print in poster format, I don't think I'm going to regret the 40 megapixels of the 99 II. Being used to the two "old ladies" I was amazed by the reduced noise of the 99 even at the high ISO. That is, the 3200 ISO of the 99 introduces much less noise than the 800 ISO of the A 900 - 850. It's very good to take pictures or movies with my microscope and I've already successfully tested it on lunar and planetary photos with my telescope. From the beginning, the fingers found the right keys almost automatically as for an already Sonysta this camera is practically intuitive. The weight is not very heavy and grips feelings of safety and great robustness. I gave her the 10 grade without a doubt and I would recommend it from the heart to all! Last thing: it is not possible to use with this USB cables of the A 900 - 850 but it is compatible with that of the A 57 which has a minor plug. |
 | sent on 04 Maggio 2019 Pros: Very workable files, great ergonomics, adjustable screen, tropicalization, high ISO resistance Cons: Lacks the WiFi, no flash, AF now no longer topical (but CMQ excellent) Opinion: My first experience with full frame, after many years with a700 and a year with a 77.2 (which is newer than A99), after some initial hesitation I can say I did well to make this leap. In the transition from a 77.2 to A99 I had to pay several Scotti: Greater machine weight and lenses, higher costs than the latter, AF less evolved, no wifi. But as far as my photographic needs are concerned the pros beat the Cons: The full frame sensor acquires more workable files, especially in the recovery of shadows, cleaner at high ISO and more balanced in colors. For those who like me do so much portraiture both outdoors and indoors, natural or artificial light, optimal lighting or dim, is the manna from heaven. Not very intuitive the menu, but the physical commands are always excellently arranged and with a few clicks you set everything according to your needs. Very comfortable the ring nut for the selection between auto Fire and manual. Priceless the hybrid focus, as well as the preview of how the shot will be. The 24 mpx are more than enough, more crowding would give only annoyance, also allows the use with all the old Minolta lenses even those non-G series or digital (between here the grandiose series Beercan) that would be difficult with the 36 mpx and beyond So many other full frames. Find his ideal partner in the Zeiss 24 70 2.8, but I recommend to try also with little expense the Minolta 28 135, 35 70 and 28 2.8, over 50ini: You'll love. I have also paired the old but still fantastic Sigma 50 and 85 ex HSM, and I'm very happy with it. Also I found considerable benefit with the use of the battery grip, allows you to have mounted three batteries together and improves the already excellent ergonomics (especially if you like me do many vertical shots). |
 | sent on 18 Novembre 2017 Pros: Performance, High Quality, Very Malleable Files ... etc Cons: Distribution of AF points. Opinion: Taken used, I'm really okay. Few uncertainties in the AF and passing from 28 to 75 sam at the Zeiss 24-70 disappeared altogether. Strong handling, convenient the swivel screen such as the A77 I and II, allowing you to make shots from the top and the side without making mortal jumps (I've often used it for architectural photos by putting the screen over and turned sideways so that the machine is resting on the wall of the room and use all the available meters to shoot as wide a frame as possible). Commands are well-distributed and easy to reach. To me great. |
 | sent on 27 Dicembre 2016 Pros: Anyway, I would particularly mention the electronic viewfinder (The only Pro reflex to have it) that is not small, see the photo before and not after. Wide choice between Minolta and Sony. Zeiss optics. Cons: No one in particular. Battery life. Adding ... Fixed with the BatteryGrip. Opinion: Used socket (as well as the "old" A77), change the optics from APS to FF. Time two exits to get feeling (but not much, is identical to A77). Updated firmware (but never does anyone?). Care must be taken to adjust the micro-regulation of the targets. And then ... I have to say that it's precise in everything, especially in focus. There's a good ergonomics, the few things you can do can be programmed on the keys that are under your fingers. The only defect, if defect might be, is the battery life, but I always go with spare parts in the bag (like all serious photographers). Add: bought battery pack, solved the problem of battery life. FANTASTIC button that allows you to adjust the focus range on any lens, you get a MAF (if properly adjusted) immediate. |
  | sent on 11 Marzo 2015 Pros: Ergonomics, functionality and overall performance. Cons: None in particular Opinion: I bought this car a few months ago with his original vg and the Zeiss 24-70 f 2.8, prevenivo from a77 with the 16-50 f 2.8 and the a850 with the 28-75 f 2.8.rnIl leap forward was clear, the two systems are quite similar, but the a99 is superior in everything, some things much in other poco.rnSicuramente of the qi is greater, while having the same resolution exploits all the lens surfaces ff managing to have a better sharpness, Also the file is more 'malleable and needless to say the files at high ISO are finally usable. We do not speak of values ??"absolute" in difficult lighting conditions in my opinion the files are good up to 3200 ISO, usable in 6400, to avoid the higher sensitivity, however, a big step forward compared to a77 that already in 1600 iso gave results osceni.rnL'autofocus is slightly more 'fast, is more' accurate and can 'count on useful function af range.rnL'ergonomia, the build quality and reliability are very good, a real machine professionale.rnIl viewfinder good oled can also be used in situations where maybe with the optician you could not see anything, the rear monitor tiltable is usually pleasing plus that sony puts all its machines, convenient stabilizer and finally we also have the sled "standard" flashes instead of wobbly slide minolta.rnUna machine recommended unreservedly to those who own a sony kit to mount ff, probably there are machines with more 'resolution or better performance at high ISO, but if you need a car to work seriously sony a99 never betrays. |
 | sent on 13 Luglio 2014 Pros: Good image quality in both jpeg to raw electronic viewfinder, high quality with many more qualities that defects, very good even at high ISO, very good ergonomics, light weight easy to use especially if you have already owned a Sony in MF mode accentuates with edges colored the outlines of things in focus in the electronic viewfinder so you can also check the PDC Cons: Sometimes it is a little slow in resuming after you have turned the LCD points of focus too much power. Opinion: You will immediately notice the hold it the build quality definitely built to last, great ergonomics all the main controls at your fingertips without having to remove your eye from the viewfinder. Working in manual for macros you have the magnification within the electronic viewfinder for focusing very accurate. The dynamic range is very good with a good degree of customization. Great gust 6 frames per second and the image stabilizer built-in make it a very versatile machine that can be used safely by stil life to the photo hunt. 24 MP sensor for excellent quality and excellent video quality. |
  | sent on 23 Maggio 2014 Pros: Ergonomics, weather sealing, resolution electronic viewfinder (now irreplaceable), adjustable display (the only FF to own it), double ring and customizing buttons. Cons: AF for improved accuracy in continuous fire. especially the really poor coverage area. Opinion: Natural transition from a77, aps-c, the full frame.rnla room is almost indistinguishable from the first as ergonomics. eccellente.rnha more features, especially think about the video. was added in fact a silent ring to an optional volo.rnma is very interesting function AF range.rnpraticamente you focus on a subject is through the two rings, you set the limits within which virtual field focused. everything will be over on or before ignorato.rnrnil electronic viewfinder, as I said, I am now insostituibile.rnrivedere shots through the viewfinder, have the diagram, the preview of white balance and exposure, face detection etc etc .. ..rnrnfinalmente also high iso can be used. no problem up to 1600, if you work, even 3200 and 6400 are utilizzabili.rnrnAltra feature unknown to other FF cameras is the articulating display. many photos would be almost impossible senza.rncome this: rnrnAGGIORNAMENTO: rnNon without fear, I agreed to photograph a party we compleanno in discoteca.rnvi leave the appropriate topic made in my personal blog. |

 | sent on 06 Maggio 2013 Pros: Great ergonomics, ease of setup, battery consumption, which limits the absence of the mirror vibration during shooting, electronic zoom with excellent image quality, high fpm, dual memory card slots, tropicalization efficient, ability to determine the minimum distance / maximum focus. Cons: The color noise starts to be visible above 1600 Iso Opinion: A crucial step toward the complete elimination of Sony mirror, with the a99 was made a crucial step in 'approach to Nikon and Canon for sports and wildlife photography, the new optical 300G and 500G II united all' a99 seem to indicate Sony's will (though aware of the difficulties) in entering the industry pros. |
