  1. Seriously considering one. Who says it’s ugly? i think it’s pretty solid looking. better looking than a pentax at least!

  2. why buy a camera and just take pictures. buy a 9 in one and take picture, video, listen to mp3′s, mp4′s, voice recording, webcam, mass storage all in one!

  3. i wanted a d40..but they have stopped selling them. Not to good they dont have an af motor ..entry level id go for a sony or nikon d3000

  4. me too

    this on or the nikon d40?
    someone answer me please

  5. That camera looks damn awful. Eyepiece is a nightmare of course that could be replaced. Hopefully. Better get this camera than d40.

  6. i don’t know either ahhh!!!

  7. This or the Nikon d40?

  8. which is better? canon slr or this?

  9. I have expanded my knowledge of this camera since the time of my previous posting, so I am no longer in need of assistance. Thanks anyway.

  10. what lense do u have on it ? Kit-Lense ?
    which programm do u use: Auto, P, and so on?

  11. it’s a nice Cam i one to !
    what I like most about it is that it is compatible with old Minolta AF lenses so you can purchase cheap lenses for it and they work perfectly!

  12. I have this camera, and being somewhat new to photography, I was wondering if you could help me with a query. I have noticed that the exposures take quite a long time. Even with the shutter speed being capable of up to 1/4000, the camera rarely goes beyond 1/100 indoors in normal lighting, and 1/300 outdoors on a bright day. Would you consider this to be normal for this camera, or some sort of issue to adress, because as I see it, it is not performing as it should.

  13. Now I know where i’m getting mine… I didn’t realise they sold them!!

  14. good choice sir.

  15. I agree low light performance is very nice. Just don’t raise the ISO to high ;)

  16. yes you can. most of the DSLR ( or all?? ) can do that

  17. I was going to buy a Sony DSLR because I had a sony DSLR looking camera but was a point and shoot. But after I played with a Sony DSLR I found that I was completely confused about how to work it, I tried using a 450D and found that I understood it from the start so I have gone with that instead.

  18. Just picked up my A200 with 18-70mm from Argos of all places at just £259.99. Had to drive 60 miles for it though… but hey, superb in every way. Low light performance is VERY impressive!!

  19. LAZY OAF T-SHIRT!! WOO

  20. >_> I know it’s such a dumb question to ask but somehow when I was reading all the reviews I completely missed the playback button on the back at the bottom left. I was too busy reading specs, that’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it :P

  21. of course! haha don’t worry the function is there, and you can also zoom in on the pics, quite a large screen too. you can also view histograms of the image to see the levels of colors, black/white levels. Really cool. And delete pictures too of course.

  22. Got a question about Live View, I know it isn’t available on this model but this is something I’ve not had a definitive answer on because I don’t know anyone with the A200. I know it doesn’t have Live View but after you’ve taken a shot can you still review it on the screen? It doesn’t seem to be mentioned anywhere and I don’t want to assume.

  23. This camera is a totally awesome entry level DSLR. I am so satisfied with it.

  24. Live View is when you can see through the LCD screen what photo you are taking instead of having to look through the viewfinder.

    Hope this helps

  25. you can see the picture you’re about to take on the lcd screen
