Sony Alpha DSLR-A230 (with 18-55mm and 55-200mm lenses)
The Sony Alpha DSLR-A230 has fast autofocus ; high magnification viewfinder for its class ; dual card slots ; relatively simple, straightforward operation ; built-in wireless flash and image stabilization ; helpful SteadyShot indicator

Sony a230: great camera
Sony a230: great camera
After about a week with this camera, I really like it. I am a photographer and I needed a D-SLR, I wanted to start small, but not too small, and cheap. I did do a LOT of research before buying this. I would not recommend it if you need to take lots of fas...
