Sony - Alpha DSLR-A100 Digital Camera Reviews

The Sony Alpha100 digital camera is the best combination of Konica Minolta's camera expertise and Sony's technological know-how. The body is very solid and has a large, comfortable hand grip.  It's has a good weight that feels steady in your hand, but isn't too heavy for the neck strap. — The lense mount will accept any of the older Type-A Minolta lenses, greatly increasing your lense options without blowing your budget. — There are no overly complicated menu options.  All of your camera settings are simple and straight forward, with a great range of… read full review »

I owned a Sony DSC-H1 and was very pleased with it so I purchased the SLR A100K for my wife.  We both shoot photos for sporting events.  At the same time I purchased the Canon 400 (Xti) since I wanted to change shooting lenses.  We both shoot the same events yet my Canon performs much better.  The noise of the Sony is terrible.  I have to use the noise reduction constantly when editing pictures with low light.  I am very disappointed with the Sony camera and plan to replace it immediately.  I plan to purchase the Canon 40D and give my wife my other Canon… read full review »

I use this camera, every single day!.. I have around 25 lenses, and every picture, with any of them, is always crystal clear. Steady shot works Very wel.. — — The camera is just the right size, and feels great in your hands, fitting perfectly... with all buttons easy to reach, and use... Menu's are thorough, and simple to navigate, with more than enough options and settings. — — I would recommend this camera to anyone looking to use their Minolta AF lenses on a newer, digital DSLR camera. — — Its a good first DSLR, but, not just for beginners, it's quite… read full review »

This is one of the easiest cameras to use that I have ever owned.  It is also one of the most fun to create different pictures with.  Coming with a very nice lens up to 70mm built in flash it also allows one to adjust the ISO settings.  The burst feature is especially nice for action shots such as sports events, dance recitals or simply kids who move very fast.  Unlike many one does not have to use the flash each time but can select when you wish to do so. … read full review »

I can't add much to what has already been said. This is a great DSLR and a very good camera for Minolta film camera users that have an investment in alpha-mount lenses (the film camera lenses work GREAT with the digital camera). — — This camera can satisfy both the first time DSLR user and the "pro". — — Only caveat is that I would suggest no less than a 2Gb memory card. Trust me on this! — —… read full review »

This camera is wonderful. It has every possible feature imaginable. You can zoom, crop, share and the list goes on. It is a little difficult to use for the tecnically challenged. I got my pictures developed and was amazed to see how clear and precise the images were. —… read full review »

I have only had this camera for a short while, but I love using the sports action feature. I used it at a geyhound reunion and got some amazing pictures of the hounds running in each phase of their stride.  The color and clarity were… read full review »
