James: “Hey, I have been doing some street portraiture in Seattle recently, I am currently using the a850 and the Sony G 35/1.4 as well as the Minolta D G 85/1.4, my night shots are often taken @ f1.4 at around 1/15th of a second (IBIS Rocks), I am getting some truly beautiful images of people and thought other SAR readers around the globe would like to see my work here in Seattle, WA, USA.

James pictures are very nice. Gotta try something similar with my a850.
The a850 had really beautiful colors. I still keep one for portraits, as I don’t think the newer Sonys create quite as nice skin tones. The shots — especially with old Minoltas — look so much more alive than even the a99 with the same lenses. If it weren’t for all the wonderful conveniences on the a99 (EVF, better focusing, flip-out screen, better low light performance, etc.), I’d never have upgraded from the a850.
I agree, there’s something about the old a850/a900 (I have an a900) that’s just a little more magic than the current models. The color rendering is awesome, and the images just feel a bit “warmer”. That said, I still usually end up using my A99 instead, for all those conveniences/performance improvements that you listed.
I saw Spectre and didn’t see any Sony gadgets in it…
Unless Sony makes guns, helicopters, suits or bought Aston Martin.
In the film they do have, though, a couple of old Sony-Ericsson looking phones.
