Nikon D90 or Sony Alpha350K or Canon 500D ?
I have a Canon Powershot S3Pro IS and also owns an old Minolta SLR with 28-80mm and 70-200mm lens. I intend to get a new DSLR. I know Nikon VR lens are great .. I think the camera is rather expensive. For Canon, I lost faith in its Digic Processor from teh S3Pro with its average pic quality as compared to my old Nikon 2MP cam. I was thinking Sony Alpha350k since it can mount my Minolta lens and the cheaper price tag. Any recommendations ? I'm looking for low noise DSLR and good lens that provide good DOF.
If your old Minolta SLR is not a Maxxum then the lenses will NOT mount to a Sony DSLR. Minolta introduced its SR bayonet mount in 1959 and then abandoned it for the A-mount when they introduced the world's first full-featured auto focus SLR - the Maxxum 7000 - in 1985. There is an adapter to use the older SR mount lenses on the Maxxum cameras and the later Konica-Minolta DSLR cameras and the Sony DSLR cameras but you're limited to manual focus and stop-down metering.
The A350 is being replaced by the A380.
Since Sony has their version of Image Stabilization in the camera body every lens used will become an IS lens. Nikon and Canon can't say that since their versions of IS are in some of their lenses - but not all. A 25 year old Maxxum AF lens on the A350/380 will be an IS lens.
My vote goes to the A350/380.
