Sony A900 Image Sample Gallery
(Firmware Version 1.0, Production Copy A900)

This gallery contains images from a production sample Sony A900 with firmware Version 1.00. I wanted to have a separate gallery so that I could update images here while testing the camera and writing the final review. I will consider requests for images from a particular lens or with certain exposure values. However, please understand that I may not be able to honor all requests, as I am limited in my lens catalog and time with the A900 itself. I have used lenses from both Sony and Minolta for some images in this gallery, the images are noted when you mouse over them. Please request permission to reproduce our samples in any form. Thank you!
