Originally posted by goubejp FA600 is only discontinued for 2 years; it would be a pity that its assumed successor be a worse performer.
I remember on the PDML fifteen years ago many lamenting that there was no professional body (with good AF and 5 fps) to use with the 600/4... At least now the body is good and easily accessible, while a pro body then would have costed a fortune. And we have yet to see how the 650 really performs in the field. I have an A*600/5,6, it's very good, but I gladly swap some IQ for some more manageability, AF and better balancing for the weight.
