The Sony DSLR-A100 is a 10.2 megapixel single lens reflex digital camera, evolved from the Konica Minolta DSLR technology acquired by Sony last year. The KM heritage is evident in the fact that Minolta auto-focus lenses will work with the Sony. Constr...
Good The image stabilisation is achieved in the camera body rather than in the lens which means that supplementary lenses may be cheaper and even the legacy Minolta lenses benefit from the vibration reduction.
Bad The kit lens is not up to the quality of the camera body. We would be looking seriously at buying the Sony body and the Zeiss Vario-Sonnar T 18–80 zoom.
Bottom line The Sony A100 feels just right in the hand, is very responsive and is intuitive to use. Anyone with Konica Minolta auto-focus lenses in their bag should look seriously at the Sony, it is a fine product of the marriage of the two companies.

Good Very high image quality. Unlimited continuous shooting in JPEG mode. Very fast CF throughput. Great battery life.
