nigelh 0 #1 September 16, 2008 I'm currently looking at buying my first Digital SLR but have always had Sony everything and just wanted to know if anyone has used one in-air? I'm looking at the DSLR-A200 I have worked for Sony previously and have used the Alpha range on the ground, but how do they do up there!? My alternative is a Canon 350D/Rebel XT Thanks!-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~-~ Sponored by NZ Aerosports, CYPRES 2, Tonfly & L&B Team Dirty Sanchez #232 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DSE 5 #2 September 16, 2008 I'm a Sony consultant, and you'd have a hard time giving me one of these for much use. The former Minolta line is cheapo, IMO. In-body stabilizer is OK for some things, and does allow for super cheap lenses (Sigma 500 for only 800.00??) Decent on the ground, but I'd think/bet the in-camera stabilizer would give you grief. Sony/Minolta just aren't a camera company. They needed a DSLR line to round out their offerings, but I think this particular avenue is a mistake for them.
