Just as well, really! :D

Seriously, though, it looked and felt really nice. And it was £583, body only. Same as the cheapest I've seen on the interwebs :thumbs:

Might have to indulge after Christmas

I take it you like yours, sir?

Tis a darned fine price. I have seen it a couple of quid cheaper, but when you add the delivery cost and the happiness factor of walking out of a shop with a shiny new camera in a carrier bag......Just a shame it's from PC World! :bang:

As for mine, that is a massive understatement. I love it!! :love:
 
Hi Guys,
can anyone tell me if the lenses that fit a Minolta Dynax 505si will also fit my sony.
Cheers andy
 
cheers Fabs,
is the 303si is the same as the dynax range, but an slr and not a dslr?
cheers Andy
 
£803 is a stonking price for that lens. It seems to be out of stock in most places in the UK.

I would've been tempted, but I think I'll stick with my 80-200/2.8
 
hi guys
has anybody used a SIGMA ULTRA COMPACT 70 - 210mm AF LENS
ifso how would you rate it and what would you say a used one would be worth
cheers

Indeed, IF they have it in stock. I came across a lot of good prices when I was searching for mine. Stock was a whole different ball game. This one is certainly the cheapest I've seen by a long way though. Might give them a speculative call tomorrow to see if it's in stock.

I have the 50mm f1.4 and it really is a cracking little lens. I've never used the Minolta f1.7 version so I can't give you a comparison.
 
Hi all. First post (Will say hi in the newbies in a sec!)

Mrs NickTB has offered to buy me a 350 for Chrimbo. Having read through this though it looks like the 300 is a better bet? Can anyone shed any light on this?

cheers!

Nick

hi nick,and welcome :wave:

the only difference between the A300 and A350 is the resolution.it is said that the A300 handles noise better than the A350,but having used both side by side recently...and i would say it's negligable.

hope this helps..........
 
Thanks for the reply Stan.

It's looking more and more likely I will go for the 350 with the twin lens kit. The Sony centre has agreed to pricematch Jessops, but throw in a 4gig card too. I reckon if I drop cash on the counter I may get a better deal :D

Thanks again,

NIck

they can only say no,nick....if you don't try etc..... ;)

the A350 is a great camera....especially for a novice like myself :thumbs:

Me and you both mate! I'm looking for a site that showcases the A350. Any suggestions?
 
Marc
