Randomly check B&H and found them in stock. Ordered one then came strait here make sure everyone knew about it, but it seems you guys are on top of your game already 🙂
Sold out as soon as you posted 😛
There were a few pieces here in Geneva, just before Xmas at PhotoHall, a well known store. I’ve sent you a picture on your Facebook page, but never seen it published on it.
I don’t know it they have one or more in stock now…
Mythrill
And…. it’s gone again. 🙁
Any news about fw 2.0 for a77/a65?
I guess I was lucky saw the post on SAR call BHphoto order over the phone and went to pick it up. at home with my new toy. when I called the guy said they had only 4 in the store. thanks
Try http://www.wolfes.com, they show the A77 in stock right now.
Thanks so much! I just called them and they had several bodies in stock. Placed my order 🙂
A77 in stock (Germany)…
A77 is in stock at hobbyfoto-esslingen and at PHOTO PLANET STUTTGART.
The shop in Stuttgart has at least seven boxes of a77 (VK-Kit) in stock. The shop in Esslingen has at least one A77 (VQ-Kit) in stock. All should be provided with fw 1.04. All cameras and kits are sold for the regular prices.
Besides: I tried out the A77 to see if there’s a time lag while handling the menu ==> There is absolutely NO time lag – zero. Must
be a bug which has been fixed by fw 1.04
Best regards
Just changed to out of stock.
Oh no! Out of stock, Replacement comming at PMA!!!
🙂
Heck I was actually able to hold one and test it out for my self at Wolf Camera Atlanta GA. Sadly though I only could fool around with it and not take it home as it was already sold over the phone as I arrived.
The A77 has been (or was) available from B&H since Christmas day, and I received several notices from them because I was on the ‘notify’ list. As it turned out, I decided on the A900 since it was available when I wanted a camera. Perhaps it was a blessing in disguise because I’m very happy with it so far.
It’s stupid simple menu system and lack of added features is a double-edged sword. I’d love to have ‘live view’ and the EVF but somehow I’ll just deal with the wonderful full-frame feature and be a happy camper.
I had a similar decision on my hands. Bought an a850 and haven’t looked back
I’d love the EVF and added features too, but the 850/900 are incredibly good cameras.
I was on the notify list but didn’t get a notice 🙁
I guess I got very, very lucky. 3 days ago, I ordered a used “like New” A77 Body only from the largest online shop (guess) for $1722 and a used “like New” Sony 16-50 2.8 lens for $615, same online shop. The next day I received both items. However, I receicved the A77VQ version, aka, A77 body with the 16-50 lens kit. As well as the 16-50 Lens that orginally ordered seperately. No need to for two lens, so I sold one of lens for $50 dollar less then what I paid for it. So I’m a guilty happy camper, as well as the person who brought the extra lens for an excellent price.
If this website didn’t follow suit like most of the webisites and jack up their prices; 20% on the A77 body and kits (used for that matter)then I would have called them and told them that they made a mistake; at least I think I would have. :^)
The NEX-5N is running scarce around here. New deliveries around March 20th.
😛 There are plenty available in Sony stores in Thailand actually. The Sony reps here said they rarely sell A77 here. Probably due to the high cost of the camera compared to income here and Thai people have to spend a lot of money repairing their homes after the big flood.
So if any of you could visit Thailand, there are PLENTY available!!!
Hmm, then Sony is doing a pretty bad job here. For it’s own benefit and for the benefit of it’s shareholders and customers, Sony should ensure a proper allocation of products. If it’s true, I don’t understand to provide Sony-Thailand with an overkill of A77 and not ship to rest of world.

Those in the UK. I walked into Jacobs and bought the A77 + 16-50mm kit. Might be worth contacting your local Jacobs.
