most of mototrs are in dearly costed autofocus lenses.
The A99 uses an electronic front curtain to achieve it, similar to the top of the line Canon 1DX.
The even greater irony is that in Snapsort's comparison between the 5D Mk III & the D800 (204 ms), the former was rated as significantly better even though its 120ms!
