732585 2008-12-30 06:34:00 I own a Sony A100 and am very pleased with it . I had some Minolta lens and guess what, they fit straight on :D

I reckon you should read as much as you can . The lastest Sony DSLR's have the best live view (although most diehard photographers would scoff at it) in the reviews I have read .

From my understanding the Minolta 5D and 7D were very good digital cameras .

As for there only being 2 "brands" Canon and Nikon, sure its not just snobbery :horrified

I did try a Canon 400D but do not regret buying the Sony .

My friend has a Fuji Pro something and he takes great photos (and he should, he spent enough on gear over the years!!)

732589 2008-12-31 05:32:00 That will be a great camera! Have fun . :clap

Got it today, wallet feels lighter . Safe to say there will be no more purchases for me for the next few years but I think it is worth it .

Took it out of the box, put it together and just clicked and clicked and clicked on auto . Photo's turned out great, even the one of a fly .

Looks like my New years eve will be spent reading the very indepth manual and might even go out take some low light stuff . :clap

Most of all - just take photos!
