Sony Alpha DSLR-A700
The Sony Alpha DSLR-A700 is a digital SLR introduced in 2007, positioned as a mid-range, enthusiast-level body in Sony's early Alpha line that followed the brand's acquisition of Konica Minolta's camera division. It uses the Sony/Minolta A-mount and was aimed at advanced amateurs upgrading from entry-level DSLRs.
Hammer prices at UK auction are limited, with a 2023 sale recorded at £180 — the only verified data point available, so a meaningful range cannot yet be quoted for today's saleroom level. As with most mid-2000s DSLRs, what the A700 sells for is highly sensitive to shutter count, sensor cleanliness and whether a working battery and charger are included, and these factors drive most of the variation in value.

How much does a Sony DSLR-A700 sell for at auction?
The single verified UK auction record stands at £180, so this figure is indicative rather than a firm market range.
