New camera by SONY

A new player has entered the market.

Although SONY is known for their compact digital cameras, they didn't had anything to offer in the Digital SLR range.

But it is going to change with the release of new camera - Sony® α (alpha) DSLR-A100. It was made with the cooperation with Konica Minolta.



It is positioned as a proffesional entry level camera. Something similar to Canon EOS 350D, but higher.

One of the strongest points are :

10 MP sensor

Compatibility with many previous Minolta lenses

Super steady shot ( The image stabilisation technique )

Automatic dust removing option from the sensor

The prise is within the range of 1000$, so it is a really good bargain.
