| 46 of 48 people found the following review helpful  Great camera for the beginner with room to grow, By Kristi W. (Minneapolis) - See all my reviews This review is from: Sony Alpha DSLRA500L 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm Lens (Electronics) I have had my a500 for a few months and am very happy with my purchase. This is a great camera for someone wishing to switch from advanced point-and-shoot to full d-SLR. The menus are intuitive, and this camera is generally easy to use. It has some nice features like HDR imaging, manual live focus, and an amazing live view. I tested this camera with Nikon and Canon models in the same price range and felt this was the superior product. I also like that this camera has the autofocus motor inside the camera itself (unlike many similarly priced models by other brands), making it compatible with my 20-year old Minolta lenses. As you probably know, lenses are as important, if not more important, than the camera body so it's nice to be able to use older, reasonably-priced, solid glass.

It does everything I've asked of it so far and I haven't even begun to explore all the special features and functionalities. It is amazing. If you want a few weekend snaps, this camera might not be for you - but if you need a versitile, multi-functional, adaptable machine, this is for you. 3 of 5 people found the following review helpful AN EXCELLENT ENTRY TO MIDRANGE DSLR CAMERA!!!, By Audiophile (Seattle) - See all my reviews This review is from: Sony Alpha DSLRA500L 12.3MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55mm Lens (Electronics) Have been using this camera for the last few weeks and it's an excellent camera thus far. Previously, I've had an A300, Canon XTi, and Nikon D5000, all of which were very good cameras too. However, this is quickly becoming my favorite camera of the bunch. The build quality seems very good and the picture quality is awesome. Its heft and size feels nicely in my hand too; the other ones are smaller and lighter by comparison. That is all. I don't need to go into the technical specs because they are already listed everywhere. |
