The Sony a1 has been discussed in a lot of different post on this forum and I thought it would be helpful for those looking for information on the a1 to have a central thread to get them started. It is also a great place for us to ask questions, share settings, videos etc. on the a1 that helps build a single thread that helps those new and old Sony a1 shooters.
Here are some links from the BCG forums that discuss the a1 directly. I have tried to not include those debating brands or cross brand models but if there are threads you feel would be helpful please include them here.
I think this is by far the best video to kick off this thread:
