“I love my Sony A200 the picture is Vibrant and with...”

★★★☆☆

written by amadgwick on 04/02/2011

I love my Sony A200 the picture is Vibrant and with the Right memory can be really fast. However the lack of compatibility with flash's and mount has once again alienated sony. The functions are easy to use and the lense is perfect for any entry level photographer. Its main completion i believe is the Nikon D40X formally the D70, which in my opinion is a superior camera for usability.
The Sony is a great camera for the Price, But Due to sony's annoying compatibility i have only gave it 3 stars.

Russellsbags's Response to amadgwick's Review

Written on: 17/10/2011

I have been a Sony Alpha user (A200, A700, NEX5) for 3 years now and I have never noticed any compatibility with flashes and \"mounts\"

Nearly all lens mounts are unique to the individual system so that's irrelevant and the flashes are coveted by many Canon & Nikon users anyway. The flash mount is different but it is the opinion of many that the Sony version is far superior. OK the lenses available across the whole range may not be as high a quantity as the Canon & Nikon alternatives but if you include the fully compatible Minolta AF range since around 1988 AFAICR there is an ample choice to cover pretty much any situation. Maybe the extreme telephoto end is not covered quite so well but the price, weight and size of the long lenses put them beyond the range or usefulness of the average photographer.

The Nikon D40X was a competitor but not much of one. It did not include any type of lens drive for non motorised lenses so was only compatible with a very small amount of lenses which had the motor inside. It was also 6Mp compared to the 10Mp of the Sony A200.

The D70 is a different camera altogether.

Sony is coming on leaps and bounds and the latest releases (A77, A65, NEX7) are taking the industry by storm.
