 Happy With My Choice September 5, 2008

I began wanting a better camera a couple years ago when my cousin shared with me some of the pictures he'd taken with his high end Nikon DSLR but of course I couldn't afford to go that route. I shopped around for a while and when I was ready I bought this camera. I must say that so far, in a little over a month and a half and a couple thousand pictures later I'm still happy with my purchase. The camera does everything that I wanted and I'm able to use the lenses from my old Minolta Automatic Focus lenses.
The only thing I'm not happy with is the timer function. It turns out that when you click on the shutter and activate the timer, the camera focuses and doesn't adjust the focus anymore. This may sound trivial but if you happen to be in front of the camera when you press the shutter button it'll focus on you up close and then it won't adjust the focus again when the field changes. This seems like a simple fix, the auto focus should take place a second before the timer runs out and the picture is taken. This'll give everyone time to get in place. The other solution would be to have a wireless remote shutter switch. I wish I had that option.
Well, at least I know now what to look for next time I make such a purchase.

I immediately noticed that the anti-shake feature didn't work. Amazon sent me a new unit instantly, no questions asked with a prepaid UPS label. Great service from Amazon.
Great DSLR at a great price August 25, 2008
This camera does it all at a very reasonable price. I like that, unlike Nikon's lower priced cameras, the Sony has auto focus built into the body rather than into the lens. This means lenses are generally less expensive. Autofocus is super quick except in very low light where it seems to have difficulties, but then so do they all. Picture quality is excellent, and I am extremely satisfied with the quality and reliability of the camera. You cannot get a better DSLR at anything close to the price of this one.
Alpha 200, a great entry-level camera for dSLR newbies!!! August 21, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I'm a newbie in the dSLR world. I made a lot of internet research between the distinct models in the market, always looking for good features and lower price. I nailed my choise down to the SONY A200 with the 18-700mm lens, and I can tell you guys, I'm sooooooo happy with it!!!
*- Feels VERY good in my hand.
*- Optical stabilization in the body, not lenses.
*- Very good build quality, for an entry-level dSLR.
*- The kit lens have a bigger optical range (18-70mm) than the others entry-level dSLR (18-55mm).
*- Superb IQ, nothing to envy the entry-level rivals.
I don't hesitate to recommend all of you this camera, you'll not getting dissapointed going with this Alpha, but always keep in mind a couple of things:
*- Is an entry-level budget camera, don't push it beyond limits, is not meant to extreme situations or weather.
*- Remember is the photograph, not the camera who's gonna take the picture. So... GET CREATIVE!!!
