Review on Sony Digital SteadyShot Stabilization 18 70Mm by Carrie Garling

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Excellent DSLR, the best of DSLRs

This is a great DSLR at an amazing price. This is a very sophisticated camera, but easy to use. The functions you need to change most often are easily accessible and not hidden in the menu. While this is considered an entry-level DSLR, it's a lot more advanced than the description suggests. You have full creative control over the image as well as body stabilization. I would give this camera 5 stars if it wasn't for the lens included in this kit. An old Minolta design lens that probably worked well with a 6 megapixel camera but its limitations are evident with this 10 megapixel CCD lens, the lens has a limited focus range and produces relatively flat images. I suggest buying a case and looking elsewhere. Glass.

Pros
  • Expensive but valuable
Cons
  • Questionable purchase for the elderly
