    i dunno, your better saving your money now and going for a canon 1000d or maybe a 550 if u fancy saving more. the lack of movie mode and high raw processing times along with some what high noise at 800+ iso makes this camera a little bit old now.

    @Cagey75

    Search for the pentax D2000 (the white one)

    Mate what you are talking about is a ‘jack-of-all-trades’ glitchy gadget. This is a professional DSLR camera, which costs a lot of money.

    I got this cameria last year for my birthday. I don’t really know anything about it but I think it sucks. I wish it could record

    Seriously considering one. Who says it’s ugly? i think it’s pretty solid looking. better looking than a pentax at least!

    why buy a camera and just take pictures. buy a 9 in one and take picture, video, listen to mp3′s, mp4′s, voice recording, webcam, mass storage all in one!

    That camera looks damn awful. Eyepiece is a nightmare of course that could be replaced. Hopefully. Better get this camera than d40.

    I have expanded my knowledge of this camera since the time of my previous posting, so I am no longer in need of assistance. Thanks anyway.

    it’s a nice Cam i one to !
    what I like most about it is that it is compatible with old Minolta AF lenses so you can purchase cheap lenses for it and they work perfectly!

    I have this camera, and being somewhat new to photography, I was wondering if you could help me with a query. I have noticed that the exposures take quite a long time. Even with the shutter speed being capable of up to 1/4000, the camera rarely goes beyond 1/100 indoors in normal lighting, and 1/300 outdoors on a bright day. Would you consider this to be normal for this camera, or some sort of issue to adress, because as I see it, it is not performing as it should.

    I agree low light performance is very nice. Just don’t raise the ISO to high ;)

    I was going to buy a Sony DSLR because I had a sony DSLR looking camera but was a point and shoot. But after I played with a Sony DSLR I found that I was completely confused about how to work it, I tried using a 450D and found that I understood it from the start so I have gone with that instead.

    Just picked up my A200 with 18-70mm from Argos of all places at just £259.99. Had to drive 60 miles for it though… but hey, superb in every way. Low light performance is VERY impressive!!

    >_> I know it’s such a dumb question to ask but somehow when I was reading all the reviews I completely missed the playback button on the back at the bottom left. I was too busy reading specs, that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it :P

    of course! haha don’t worry the function is there, and you can also zoom in on the pics, quite a large screen too. you can also view histograms of the image to see the levels of colors, black/white levels. Really cool. And delete pictures too of course.
