A couple years back in owned a Alpha A330 and an A230. The A330 was a decent camera, but that was not the problem. It was finding accessories and lenses. The lenses, grips and speedlites that Sony makes are okay, but you don't have much choice. Compared to Canon and Nikon you are very limited and stuck when you want to add on to your system. If you want a EF or F mount prime lens, you have choices and price options. If you want a prime for your Sony you will pay a lot and have little choice. Same goes for speedlites, Sony doesn't make very many and third party manufacturers aren't really interested in making compatible products for their tiny sliver of the DSLR market. I owned a Sony camera for 3 years and Minolta before Sony bought their technology. Back when Minolta was a big player it was different. I also tried older Minolta lenses on Sony bodies, but it never worked that well for me. Sony makes all these fancy new camera bodies and continually ignores the rest of their system. This is just how I feel towards Sony after owning their products for years IMO.
