The brand-new and much hyped Sony a9 mirrorless camera can be pre-ordered: Amazon | Adorama | B&H Photo

The Sony a9 is touted as Canon and Nikon killer over the Internet. Sony pushes the Sony a9 as a sports camera but as far as I know there are no serious sport lenses for the a9 yet.

What do you think, will professional sport photogs abandon their battle-proven gear for this camera? I can’t help but to me Sony cams still feel like toys.
