Sony Alpha A230L 10.2 MP Digital SLR Camera with Super SteadyShot INSIDE Image Stabilization and 18-55mm Lens CustomerReview
I recieved this camera with everything including the box, manual, lens, lens cap and accessories. The battery even came half charged, not drained, so I wouldn't have to spend hours charging it. I could use it right away. I used my own memory stick but that's okay because it was stated as such in the original description. The shipping was great it reached me quicker than expected, less than a week including weekends. There were no defects. There were no scratches or scrapes. The camera was clean as if the pre-owned camera was used once or twice and put back in the box.
If you're looking for a slim, pocket sized camera, this is not for you. This camera is something you will definitely be hanging from your shoulder or in a bag. Compared to the non DSLR Nikon L100, in size, the Sony A230 is slightly bulkier but not heavier, I own both. The basic 18-55mm lens that comes with it is nice for close shots but if you're looking for a 15x like the Nikon L100 or higher camera you'll have to buy a better lens. The options are okay. The photo does not show on the display until you take it, rather the display shows options or stats. You look through the lens to zoom in and out via lens. I really like the picture quality. Of the 500 pictures I've taken in the past month, not one comes out blurry. Auto and Manual, changable lens and photo delay are a plus. I like the rechargable battery concept, very portable and wireless to charge.
There's probably other things I missed in the review. The only flaw I could think of is that when you click for one second and it flashes but does not take a picture, you have to hold it for a second or two as oppose to taking it right away, I reset the settings and much better and it got better. It's a nice entry level DSLR. I like it because it takes really clear pictures, again entry level photographers go for it. The alternative was the Nikon D3000 but I couldn't find a review that gave a huge difference between the two. This coming from a Techie by trade not a photographer.
