If you want a better camera then you could try asking for a refund. However they don't have to agree as the camera was bought more than 2 weeks ago. They will have to fix it and I am sure will do a good job.

have you perhaps bent a pin in the slot?

after 10 months use I doubt that you would get a full refund.

I recently sold my A300, because I hadn't used it since I got my A700.

The A300 is basically the same body as the A200 but with live view. Had absolutely no problems with it, really liked it in fact, which is why I went to the A700 when I was looking to upgrade.

You have a statutory right to have the camera repaired or replaced under warranty if it's a manufacturing fault. You do not have a right to a refund. If the fault is caused by the owner you have no rights.

have you tried an A500/A550?
there seems to be quite a lot of A2xx/A3xx users very happy with upgrading to A5xxs.

You've got a very nice set of lenses there for MinAF/Alpha & I don't know if you could replicate it on another mount for the same money (remember they are all image stabilised on an Alpha).
 
The anti-shake on my A200 broke (camera made a rigth racket on power on), Sony fixed it for pretty quickly (bit of a wait for parts).

Having had to send in both my A900 and A200 recently, I do find Sony Service excellent.

If a pin is broken, this is not likely to be a warranty repair though.
 
whoops well from what your all saying is good news in the long term stay with sony as for repair i will have to pay up
thanks to you all :wave:
