hi guys. i recently found a ton of my grandfathers old camera stuff and came up on a nice collection of minolta autofocus lenses. lucky for me, they all fit the zony alpha series DSLRs. i was looking into buying the a300. i felt it today and it does feel pretty nice in my hands, and i did get to play around with it for a little while.
but the thing is i never see anyone discussing this camera and it doesnt seem to be very popular. ive had a lot of my friends involved in photography talk down on the series but cant really give clear reasons behind it.
can someone with the camera, or someone who has used it give me some feedback on the camera?
reasons im looking into it:
im getting a hell of a deal on it
already have multiple zoom lenses for it
has the live view screen flip out (i take paintball photos mostly. this gives me an opportunity to protect the camera a little more with my body instead of leaving it so vulnerable in font of my face.)
already understand the interface. sort of.
thanks. not all of my posts are going to be novels either.
