I'm thinking of switching from maxxum 7, maxxum 5 to a used sony a-100 or sony a-300. I do 90% indoors sports action wrestling from about 15-25 feet and 10%...
If that requires high ISO shooting you probably should avoid the A100. Although it's capable of nice sharp images, it doesn't perform well in the high ISO...
... By today's standards that's not very fast at all. I was thinking more along the lines of ISO 1600, and that's where the A100 is not as good as other...

My preference is with A700 even though it is not identical. I use Dynax 7 (Maxxum 7) for film and Sony A700 for Digital. I tried 7D but even though it is tough...
What about A-200? Any signifant difference compared to A-100 in this 400 ISO indoor 20-25 feet shooting situation? ... From: Magnus Wedberg <mw@...> ...

Thanks for info. I used vertical grips with Maxxum 5 and 7 so I could use rechargeable batteries. I think the Sonys and D7 use rechargeable batteries. So...
... Just vastly superior control for vertical shooting, and having the option to use two batteries at once for longer shooting between battery changes. -- ...
