Tags: sony, frames, contrast, class
We like:
In-body image stabilisation; supports wireless flash
We don't like:
Loud shutter sound; Sony doesn't have a stable of inexpensive lenses for consumers; oddly located, proprietary USB connector
You might also need:
Compatible A-mount Konica Minolta, Sigma or Tamron lens
CNET.co.uk judgement:
The Sony Alpha DSLR-A200 is a solid entry-level dSLR, but it doesn't really stand out in its very competitive field
