Oh man... i am planning to buy A200 tml.. hope it not that difficult for a newbie like me...

Sony has the most user friendly interface, definitely easy to use for newbies

Although looking at upgrading, I still love my A200. Value-for-money and you can't go wrong getting a second-hand unit either, if budget's really an issue. I still can't see myself changing camp simply because of the old Minolta lenses that I've acquired and love to bits. And this coming from a person who practically loathes Sony products.

The best newbie set-up ever = Sony A200 + kit lens + Minolta 50mm 1.7 and of course ... the 70-210mm 4 beercan.

Hey guys,
I've hold onto both the a200 and canon d450, somehow i love the a-200 but i did ask john3:16 with regards to both prices, they emailed me stating D450 is better and gave me the price for that, a200 they didnt give.wonder why?

Besides buying the body +kit, must i get a dry cabi, filter? i've seen reviews mixed reviews on having them, kinda lost now..hope could be enlightened. With regards to the lenses, are all lenses under minolta suitable?

Thanks alot.

filter/uv filter is a must as for dry cabi, it's good to have

[vibranze]

you can purchase at any shop that sell it but mscolor price is the cheapest among other photo shop, this is my personal experience, your mileage may vary.

For 1.4k to get a200, v-grip and lenses. I also think is a good deal. However, make sure you test the items before you buy.
