The photographs in the following galleries were taken with my sony alpha dslr a100 camera.
Sony's first digital SLR, named the Alpha DSLR-A100, marks the company's entry into the big leagues of digital still imaging.
With a 10.2-megapixel CCD sensor, a bevy of convenience features, an updated version of Konica Minolta's CCD-shift image stabilization, and a design that improves slightly on the Maxxum 5D, Sony has delivered a worthy competitor in the sub-$1,000 dSLR market.
Since the camera accepts Maxxum AF lenses, anyone with an existing collection of such lenses should be plenty happy with this camera. At the same time, the DSLR-A100 offers a very serious alternative to the usual Canon and Nikon offerings for dSLR newbies.
Sony offers the DSLR-A100 three ways: a body only; in a kit with the body and an 18mm-to-70mm lens; and in another package that includes the body, the same 18mm-to-70mm lens, and a 75mm-to-300mm lens.
