This is by far, the best camera i own, i had the sony a100 wich unfortuantly broke, but the sony a200 delivers more with a bigger lcd screen and higher iso settings of 3200, i would strongly recomend this 10.2 megapixel camera to anyone. The sony a200 spo

The 10.2-megapixel Sony Alpha A-200 is the successor to the Alpha A-100, Popular Photography & Imaging's Camera of the Year for 2007. The A-200 offers a slightly larger 2.7-inch LCD than the A-100, new firmware, and a top light-sensitivity setting of ISO

If you have no investment in a DSLR system and you're looking for an entry-level model, the Sony A200 is a real alternative to the likes of the Nikon D60, Canon EOS 450D and Olympus E-510. It may not be the most exciting camera on paper, with no Live View

Watching the strategies of the top players in the digital SLR market is like watching a game of chess with three sides, and the recent spate of product launches has shown some very interesting moves. Canon, the global market leader, has a comprehensive ra

This is an impressive camera that is ideal for anyone starting on the road to digital SLR photography. It’s got a fair spec and performs well, but it’s in the handling department that this camera really shines. It won’t confuse you with lots of bells and

The A200 is further confirmation that Sony deserves its slice of the DSLR market. Admittedly, there’s nothing here that is particularly revolutionary, and the upgraded features don’t make a world of difference, but the focus with this model is on providin

The Sony Alpha did well and shows that even an entry-level model can be all-round. We expect 2008 to be the year of the SLR cameras and Sony has made a head start. It will undoubtedly not be the last D-SLR of Sony that we will see this year.

I generally liked the DSLR-A200. This entry-level D-SLR has a lot of things going for it: quick focusing, fast shutter speed, lots of tweaks for those who want them plus it captures good 10MP stills with accurate colors and nice contrast. If it were my mo

The A200 gives you a lot for your money, but it lacks that little ‘spark’ to make it truly desirable. It’s a bit bulky, a bit cheap-feeling and not the best camera to handle. The kit lens isn’t great.

While its pictures are a little softer than those produced by some competing models, there is no denying the A200 is a great overall camera, with particular appeal to novice users who may be afraid to take the next step.

Sony's Alpha A200 is a relatively minor revamp to the electronics giant's first digital SLR, the A100, which itself was a more significant step up from the Konica Minolta 5D. The Sony A200 is lighter and smaller than the A100, and a good deal easier to us

Overall, the A200 is a good camera, but one that's spoilt by too many rough edges. The standard lens isn't good enough, the control layout's not quite straightforward enough, and the finish isn't quite elegant enough.

Sony's entry-level dSLR, the Alpha DSLR-A200, delivers a just-the-facts-ma'am shooting experience. For the most part, it provides the average design, basic feature set, modest performance, and better-than-snapshot photo quality that typifies this market s

The camera with two lenses is sold as a kit. It has a 10mp sensor with in-body image stabilisation. There is automatic dust removal and the battery has exceptional capacity. The battery meter shows percentage of charge remaining.
