A whirlwind tour of the body and features of the Sony Alpha DSLR-A700.
Like Nikon and Pentax, Sony provides a switch for choosing among single-AF, continuous-AF, automatic-AF, and manual focus. (In contrast, on a Canon dSLR you select among the options electronically.) However, I'm not fond of the design of the switch on the A700; I find it awkward to manipulate.
