Sony Alpha A230L 10.2 MP Digital SLR Camera with Super SteadyShot INSIDE Image Stabilization and 18-55mm Lens Review
It's my first DSLR camera, and before buying it, I was reading and looking on the internet for almost 4 months to buy the "perfect" camera (for me) to start my experience on DSLR. And after hundreds or reviews, specifications comparing with other DSLR from the same category (Canon XS, Nikon D300, Olympus E520) I think the a230 is the easiest to use and to start with. I'm not saying that the other DSLS are not better, the Canon and Nikon probably are, but honestly for my 1st touch with the DSLR, I guess this sony is from far the best camera (again, for me) according to its price. I was also going to get the Olympus E520 with 2 lenses, but I read a lot about it, and I found out that it has a major AF problem, and I didnt want to face that issue once I'm dealing with my 1st DSLR. The only "bad" thing about this camera is may be the miss of the live view option, but this is my "DSLR beginner/point and shoot old user" point of view, and I'm sure it's going to changer, a lot!
Anyway, I totally do recommend this camera for a beginner DSLR user and especially for a low budget. 99% of the reviews i saw (easy to find, youtube : "sony a230 review") are saying that according to it's features, this Sony is the cheapest DSL camera ever.
