- Versatile camera that is simple enough for a novice and feature-filled for an enthusiast!
I've had my fair share of point and shoot camera experience, dabbling in small Olympus and Pentax cameras as well as trying out more advanced, full-featured Canons, Samsungs, and Casios, but I was tired of taking mediocre pictures with compact cameras featuring small sensors. This A300 is my first digital SLR and I went through tons of research to finalize my decision on this model. The other models I considered were the Canon XS and XSi, the Olympus E510, and the Nikon D40x. The Sony Alpha 300 is a superior camera to those listed above for the following reasons:

1. IN-CAMERA IMAGE STABILIZATION VIA SENSOR SHIFT. While I intended to use a tripod every now and then, I realize that my shooting will predominantly be handheld, and image stabilization is important. It roughly allows ... Read More

- Best DSLR for the price
I compared this camera with the Nikon. Live View was the deciding factor. This camera is great. Pictures are super clear. I have not had much time to use all the features but many think that the photos were taken by a professional. I shot on auto mode! Sports shots come out great, the clarity and speed are really wonderful for an amateur photog.

Downside, you can get some shadow as the flash pops up quite low and can cause shadow with the lens.

I recommend getting the accessory kit with the extra battery as I am always forgetting to charge it.

- LOVE LOVE LOVE IT
I received this as a Christmas present. Within 3 days of having this camera I had taken almost 600 pictures. I have owned many cameras (pentex, kodak, etc... ) NONE were this good. You really have to try to get a blurry picture. I was changing the zoom and took a pic and it still came out clear. I tried everything and kept it on the auto setting for type of pics and it was always clear. I am not a camera buff and it will take me some time to learn all the features, but so far so good. I would highly recommend this to someone without a lot of picture taking knowledge that just wants a good camera like I did.

- Expected more than what I found
I have been using various sony cameras right from P9, P10, some fancy handy types which came out as limited editions and lately using DSC-H1 past 2 years now. I decided to buy a new series alpha of sony and is when I finalized the A300 and bought. The contrast, clarity, liveliness on the true colours is all that is lacking in A300. My DSC-H1 is excellent comparing to A300. The pictures from A300 look as if somebody has set an extra film of colour which ruins the results and photos look like they have been stored for many years. I am talking of clicking the photos in either "P" mode or "Auto" mode. So not as expected. Otherwise, the look of the camera, price, some extra features are not matcahable with other brands. Sony stays quiet exclusive in those terms.

- Don't waste your money. Purchase a Nikon or Canon...
I purchased my SONY Alpha 300 several months ago. Since then almost 75% of my pictures are bad using the flash. This is not due to the plastic guard the attaches to the front of the lens. If it was the guard, the shadow would occur all the time. I don't think the Sensor is bad because the shadow occurs when using the flash...strange. The shadow is a black arc that appears at the bottom 1/4 of the image. I am waiting for a response from Sony on the cause. Regardless if they can fix it, I have a lot of good pictures that have been ruined. Maybe SONY should add Photo Shop in camera package to fix the bad pictures. I should have went with a proven camera, such as Canon or Nikon.

To be fair...
If you're lucky to purchase the camera without this problem, Congrats. I would otherwise ... Read More
