Thanks Bob....I know that there's a LOT of Canon users in here and Sony IS a "forgotten" model. I've read reviews and it seems that they're pretty favorable on the Sonys. This is considered more or less an "entry level" model but, for my purposes, I think it's just fine.
My Canon Rebel XT was a lemon to begin with. It can't focus properly, manually or automatically. It focuses either behind or in front of where you're aiming and since you never know which it will be, you can't compensate unless, you get lucky and guess right. I bought it second hand so, there was no warranty on it and taking it in for repairs would be at least $150.00 just for Canon to put it onto the bench...then, heaven knows how much more??? In the longrun, I got this one new, 4 year warranty (store....1 year manufacturer) and it cost me the same as my used Canon Rebel so, I guess I am going to "play" with it for a few more days and make some decisions.
Btw...guess the amount of response to this question shows the number of Sony users in here, doesn't it? *smile* |
