I currently have a Sony A57 and recently got the 18-135 lens for it - I like the camera.....the other day a friend of mine used it for a day as he has been thinking of getting a modern (d)SLR and afterwards he said if I'm ever thinking of selling to let him know.
So this got me looking at possible replacements and I have seen in a few places that I can get an A77 with the 16-50 SSM Lens for £999. I would sell my camera and lens for around £500 to my friend.
I suppose my question is (for the people in the know) is the A77 and lens a good buy at £999 (bearing in mind it is now a couple of years old) and is it £499 better than my current set-up? (£999-£500).
I guess I'd be ok with staying as I am but this is an opportunity to upgrade and give my mate a good deal and we can shoot together too
your thoughts would be helpful
