DxOMark review for the Sony Alpha 700
When we first analyzed the Sony A700, our preliminary tests showed that it made use of green-channel RAW NR (Noise Reduction). To ensure fair ranking on dxomark.com, we only score cameras that do not exhibit any sort of spatial signal filtering, taking care to test every camera we report on. With the latest A700 firmware version (rev.4) that disables noise reduction on the green channel, it is then possible to publish all its measurement results and DxOMark ranking.Key sensor characteristicsSony acquired Konica Minolta’s DSLR division following the launch of Konica Minolta’s last high-end DSLR, the Maxxum 7D.
