I just received an anonymous message from a photographer. This is NOT one of our trusted sources but I thought to post it anyway because I (and maybe also you) do have some question for him and I can only made them through this article. Here is the text he sent to me:

“I am photographer working for Sony testing and I just received the pre launch version of the Sony A77/ A800 for bug fixing and stuff. Just want to announce, the camera is VERY close to being released now!”

The question to the source: I would love to hear some “general impressions” about the A77 after your testing. Is the image quality much better than on the [shoplink 3617]A55[/shoplink]? Are you satisfied with the video quality? Do you think it’s the best APS-C camera to date (compared to the Nikon D7000, and Pentax K-5)? I know it’s impossible but….is there some kind of hybrid technology a là Fuji X100 (Click here ot see that camera). Thanks!

For SonyAlphaRumors readers. If you have some questions comment this post. Don’t ask him specs as he will probably not share them…and we already know them or not? ;)
