The Sony-A900 has stood up to the coral sands of Socotra Island, the salty dust of the Indian Ocean, the fine clay powder of the Socotrian off-road, and the heat of the sizzling southern sun. Proven to be a reliable companion to the traveling photographer. The lenses showed a new standard of the highest photographic quality. The A-900 is a perfect match for your creative intentions.
