We're having this same argument on another forum. Someone made a good point.
Sony makes TV's, stereos, CD players, cameras and a plethora of other devices.
Nikon makes cameras, microscopes, telescopes and other lens based equipment.
Just an observation.
I agree with Soocom1 whole-heartedly. I had been using an EOS 10D and decided to move up, and to be honest I would not have bought the A100 if it were actually something Sony made.
This is a Minolta camera, not really Sony's creation...I bought it and am extremely happy with it. It does have a noise problem at 800 & 1600 iso speeds but not much more than my old camera, and most shots are still very usable at those speeds.
I can take 750 shots before having to stick another battery in, which is amazing! The biggest selling point for me was the anti-shake. It makes a huge difference...nice pictues even when I'm a little shaky.
I've seen a few people saying this is an entry-level camera...not a chance. It's a very capable DSLR and should not be shot down because of the brand name stuck on it.
