"Outstanding camera!"
5.0 starson by teky tekyPros: Excellent still images and great HD video. Nice durable body and improved design over the a700. The 16mm-50mm lens is also very nice.
Cons: Battery life... Meh... Hoping Sony comes out with with an extended battery in the future.
Summary: So glad I upgraded from the a700 (which is a very nice camera) to the a77. As an intermediate level photographer I love the ease of use of the a77. It takes color popping photos and crisp video. Also, so glad it now uses a standard SD card verses the X Pro memory stick. Makes downloading pictures so much more versatile. There were many reviews that mentioned the a77 as being extremely heavy. I personally did not find it any heavier than my a700. The LCD and optical view finder are also a great improvement over the a700. 12fps shooting is excellent! I was able to take full advantage of this at a dog agility competition. Still exploring all other shooting modes, but so far I am extremely pleased and SO excited about my purchase. Also, so happy that I can use my previous a700 lenses with the a77.
