Product Description
Enjoy the all-new Sony ? (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera with an amazing zoom lens to get you started. Included in this kit is the versatile SAL-18200 18-200mm standard zoom lens. This easily handles the full range of shots you'll take most often-but there's nothing "standard" about its advanced optical design. With superior all-in-one lens performance for everyday shooting, its 35mm-equivalent range of 27mm wide-angle to 300mm telephoto excels at capturing faraway subjects, sports events, dramatic landscapes and intimate close-up views.

 very poor build quality June 4, 2010

I am really frustrated with Sony and my Alpha DSLR, a product with inferior build quality and a customer service that lays the blame on me instead of acknowledging quality problems. I have bought it sometime in 2007 and only had problems with it. After some weeks it just wouldn't turn on anymore and it took Sony several weeks to get it repaired and back to me. Now when I take pictures the resulting file shows a different field of vision than what the viewfinder showed me. Even worse, there is a black right upper corner in every one of my picture. After several tries to get to the right person to help me, Sony told me that any repair would cost a fixed amount of £114.56. Without even knowing what is wrong with my camera. Asking if this functional failure is normal for a Sony product after three years, I was told that this is normal "wear and tear". For me a camera that is expected by the producer not to last longer than the guarantee period of one year, is not worth paying for. My next camera, or any electronics product for that matter, will for sure not be a Sony product. I recommend for everyone planning to buy one of their products to think hard about how long he/she plans to use it for.
 Wonderful camera April 13, 2010
P. Christians (Maple Grove, MN United States)
Having been out of real photography (strictly amateur) for a few years, I was very happy to find this camera. I had gotten so used to point-and-shoot cameras, everything automatic. Now I can go back to where I was years ago, but with updated digital features. I can use it as a strictly auto camera, or use different features for creative photography. I'm looking forward to some great shots after I refresh myself on the principles of photography. This is some camera!!!

This camera is the greatest camera I have ever owned. It takes amazing pictures, and allows you to really understand photography. Even without a manual you can figure this camera out, it's very easy to use. I recently took it to a hockey game and got a lot of really great shots. I would recommend this camera to anyone.
A solid little camera February 6, 2010

The a100 was the first Sony DSLR I bought. I was pleased enough Sony's cameras that I eventually sold my a100 and stepped up to the a700. Despite all the numerous technical advantages the a700 has over the a100, I missed my a100. There is a certain quality to the images that this body produces that I missed. Images are particularly sharp, the dynamic range is impressive and colors are very rich, making this camera a very ideal camera for landscapes and static scenes. In the end I picked up another a100 to share the camera back with my a700. I probably should have never sold my first one.
A lot of people talk about image noise and the a100. It is maybe a slightly nosier camera than some of its contemporary competition but I find it usable up to ISO 800. I would avoid ISO 1600. I find more fault with the slowness of the AF system than anything else. I think this is more likely to hold back your images than the noisiness of the sensor. This is why I would not recommend this body for shooting fast moving objects. Slower moving objects it can handle. It is an excellent camera for landscape photography that can capture a lot of fine detail when paired with a good lens. I find the Tamron 17-50mm f2.8 to be a very good match for this body.
Don't let the plastic bodies of these cameras fool you, they are quite solid and well built. Much better built than the A200 through A380 models if you ask me. The a100 is really quite the bargain nowadays. You can still find them new in stores if you look around. They're great little cameras. Definitely worth taking a look at.
My first DSLR July 31, 2009
Jean-Pierre du Bois (Rohnert Park, CA.)
I love the way it feels in my hand. I looked for weeks for a DSLR nd for the price and what I read this was it. Im thinking of upgrading the body I have 5 lenes and I like the a350 but I am also looking into the 700. But for a starter SLR you can't beat the a100.
