Pro Photo on a budget

[3bayjunkie]

Here is a nice sony camera for the price though Sony Alpha DSLR-A900 SLR Digital Camera (Camera Body) DSLR-A900

Remember that the Alphas use (almost) every Minolta Maxxum accessory out there. That means there's a lot of good-to-great glass gathering dust in people's closets if you can find it. I just got a 75-210 f/4 and a 50mm f/1.8 that were forgotten in a bag with a broken Maxxum 7000 for free.

There are a few oddballs among the Minolta line; the 7000 and a few others use ISO hotshoes instead of the Minolta/Sony one ($8-15 for an adapter) and some of the early digital lenses are made for cropped sensors, but of course the film lenses are full frame.

wow! That is actually pretty cool. i did not know that =)
