I watched some footage of that guy at the Sony release. He looked like a right clown.

Another difference between these two cameras is that Sony A9's sensor lacks anti-alias (Low-Pass) filter. Removing anti-alias filter increases the sharpness and level of detail but at the same time, it increases the chance of moire occurring in certain scenes.

To be fair to the classifieds advertisers, one of the 28-70's was mint as new and looked in far better condition than the Harrisons one (classed as good, not very good, not excellent). On top of that , knowing the seller as I do he would have lowered the price
And the other one in the classifieds is 3 months old and has been used twice so may as well be new
The A7III has an AA filter and some guy said it didn't, so he's being berated for it.
Why is a Sony Artisan like Brian Smith saying there's no AA in the a7iii? And also a Sony customer support bloke.

I agree, its great value at £1999, also most places are throwing in free 3 years extended warranty if you ask, that adds even greater value especially as you can transfer ownership/warranty to the next owner (good for resale).
Do Nikon and Canon still lock down their warranty to the first original owners?
Can you transfer Sony warranty?
To Nikon?

My assumption was yes and that seems more typical for its market segment but I was waiting for the actual launch to get it confirmed. The only reason I had to assume is all these guys on video have been careful to point out they've been told rather than it does or doesn't.
It is a little weird this hasn't been confirmed either way, we're only a few days away from when people are supposed to be receiving pre-orders.
People already have them in germany. My thinking is Sony would'e made a song and dance if it didn't so it does.

I doesn’t have a low-pass optical filter (AA). Check out the official Sony technical spec. Brian Smith has also confirmed this.

Strange, I’m pretty sure it used to under the Sensor heading.
Brain Smith said the you get two types of filters on the Sony bodies.
Optical low-pass filter (AA) and a normal optical filter which is for protecting the sensor.
It’s no biggie for me as it doesn’t affect IQ too much.

I'm not sure if that's good or bad news then, on the one hand if I truly wanted no AA filter there's always the A7R III (but I don't want to pay 50% more) and on the other having an AA filter means I'm less likely to run into moire (but then it's not that common for me anyway).
The smart thing to do is wait and see, we might hear about the Nikon mirrorless and the Sony bodies will get cheaper but it's bad for your body to hold in your GAS...

- There are still current in-production Sony bodies with no IBIS
- OS+IBIS can work together to provide better stabilisation
- in many cases OS doesn't really add much bulk

Wish they'd bloody hurry up but it makes far more sense to keep people in the dark and watch them shift to sony/Fuji etc.
They're being stupid by not saying a thing especially with the a73 announcememt.
