I shoot with an a500. I had an a200,but the LCD screen went out about a year after I bought it. Kind of limits what you can do with it. I have enjoyed the 500 very much.

This is what I bought from ebay for my a550 and it works great. I just used it to shoot some pictures of fireworks recently.

. I see that you still have the A100. Do you use it much. I should sell mine.
I haven't used my A100 since I got the A500. I should probably sell mine too, I just can't bring myself to do it.

I have the a550, looking for the a580. What store did get the a580 from?

Hi I got the camera from KEH.com. They buy and sell used equipment and have a good reputation. Another place to check out is fredmiranda.com. I am sure that you have checked out Ebay and Amazon but I found the lowest price with a guarantee and no questions asked return policy from KEH.

Sony a55 and Sony a77...plus my always dependable Nikon d700. HDR on my a77 is awesome! Haven't had a chance to shoot anything other than landscapes with it , but i will this weekend! It is absolutely the best!
I'm so jealous! I'm curious about your a77--how does it do in low light? I am nervous about the reviews I've read about not as much light getting to the sensor on SLT's...but I'm also drooling over the great shots described from using it in enough light...what has your experience been? Thanks!

Hi all.
I have been judiciously adding Sony shooters to my buddy list wherever I see them. I now have 82 in my list. We are growing. :thumbup:

OK, OK......I'm a Canon shooter but use my NEX-5 and NEX-7 as my walk-around/vacation cameras. Really enjoy the size and weight difference. Only complaint I have is I wish they could have the same high ISO, low noise ability as my Canon's. Sensor size does matter.
Yes, I shoot my Canon glass on my NEX's with a manual aperature adapter :thumbup:

Currently have an a300...hoping to upgrade to another Sony soon, if I can find the one I want for a good price---would you recommend the a580, a700, a900, or one of the SLT's? Thanks!!

i have just bought the a57 but i cannot give an honest appraisal as yet but in the
Monthly "digital slr"the review states, ISO TEST, the a57 offers sensitivities from 100 to 16,000which gives it the greatest range of the cameras featured here (the other cameras being the NikonD3200and the Canon EOS 600D)Results are impressive too,Digital noise is evident at 16000 and the colours are muted,but not so much that the images are unpleasant.
It also has a lot of extra programs which im just starting to get my head round,the kit lens is also a nice addition (sal 18-55f3-5 5-6)I have no regrets.

You can add me to your list. Don't use my KM 7D since I got my SLT 55. I have not found the slight loss of light to be significant.
