Verdict
The A200 is further confirmation that Sony deserves its slice of the DSLR market. Admittedly, there’s nothing here that is particularly revolutionary, and the upgraded features don’t make a world of difference, but the focus with this model is on providing a good, entry-level DSLR at a very reasonable price. There isn’t quite enough here for A100 users to justify an upgrade, but existing Minolta users still using film, for example, couldn’t really ask for a better introductory DSLR. Anyone looking to purchase an entry-level DSLR will find themselves tempted by what the A200 has to offer.
