Is it fast for focusing and can it be set up for back button focusing? It seems to have more features than the A900, enough to catch my interest!
I needed a travel camera and this seemed to check all the boxes. Great capability and very compact. I ordered it from Best Buy (out of stock) and gave it a trial before taking it back today. It is just too small for me to get comfortable with. The tiny controls drive me crazy. The zoom is great, but if you want a sharp picture you need a tripod. No amount of VR is going to compensate for that much zoom looking for something at 35X in the palm of your hand. Maybe the P1000 would be better suited for me, but it is not much smaller than my DSLRs. Maybe your experience will be better, but I would suggest trying it out before you buy.
