Good Points

Bad Points

Haven't found any so far...could be better with very low light, but have learned to deal with it.

General Comments

Have operated a100 for over a year in the field as a nature photographer and have been delighted with overall performance. Love the legacy lenses from Minolta, and the Sony lenses are good too. Find the burst rate on RAW (6fps) wonderful for catching flying birds and wildlife in action. Autofocus is great, and will not allow out of focus shots when using burst...so, just set the autofocus on spot and use burst for spectacular shots of flying birds, etc.

I also find the antishake setup very valuable as I am a senior citizen who is beginning to have some hand shake and the system compensates for it very well and should enable me to keep shooting for a long, long time. Overall, I am one very happy camper, and when I eventually upgrade it will probably be another Sony.
