supmet · 11-27-2009, 02:35 PM

unless I'm missing something, there seems to be a few on amazon new in the 400-450 price range.

RUFFSTUFF · 11-27-2009, 03:17 PM

I like the DSLR-A350 better. That price used, even Canadian, seems a bit high.

marcus · 11-27-2009, 05:04 PM

$400 canadian dollar with 2 lense though. its actually -70mm and another lense fr 55-200mm. comes with it..

IllusionX · 11-28-2009, 10:30 AM

the price is so-so.

55-200 is a nice lens, THOUGH, it does F3.5-5.6 aperture sizes. That's not something i would aim for unless you shoot mostly outside or in a well lighted room.

Btw, sony lens have a really slow auto-focus.

marcus · 11-28-2009, 01:10 PM

cruz-gsr · 11-28-2009, 01:50 PM

Check out Ritzcamera and dealnews.com from time to time. You'll find amazing deals. I know there are current deals for the Nikon D3000 (entry level DSLR) for around 500USD brand new.

RUFFSTUFF · 11-29-2009, 02:31 AM

Sony's DSLR's aren't as bad as you say... They bought out Minolta which is why the lenses are interchangeable...

RUFFSTUFF · 11-29-2009, 09:00 AM

So what's wrong with a vented lens?

RUFFSTUFF · 11-29-2009, 09:04 AM

This site has good info... You can change to whatever camera you want to know about...

others say sony lens are the best, because they are built on minolta technology.
