    Sony’s digital SLR is a beauty, and a workhorse. It’s great for the hobbyist photo geek, and even better for an aspiring professional photographer. Images are clear and crisp.

    The steady-shot feature is really great, I think. You don’t need the hand of surgeon to take great pictures. It’s perfect for capturing wonderful-looking memories.
