Summary:Basic but sturdy SLR for enthusiasts which uses Sigma's unique Foveon X3 sensor to deliver pictures of just 4.7 megapixels but with very high definition and clarity which match the real-world definition of regular digital SLRs with much higher pixel counts.
Summary:Sony's current entry-level DSLR, and the smaller brother to the a390 (the a390 has a live view mechanism and a tilting LCD on the back). The a290 feels quite basic and cheaply made, but it's good for the money and effective.
Summary: Basic but effective digital SLR for beginners or those on a tight budget, incorporating Sony's unusual but fast Quick AF Live View mode, which offers a more responsive live view mode than other SLRs.
