• 2.7-inch Clear Photo LCD screen.
• A more compact body and an easily-accessible mode dial.
• Improved noise control for higher quality images.
• Improved predictive control performance.

Incorporating the Super SteadyShot image stabilization to allow shooting at shutter speeds of 2.5 to 3.5 steps slower than otherwise possible, that 10.2-megapixel DSLR supports both JPEG

and RAW to supply quality images. Compatible lenses encompass all Minolta Maxxum mount lenses, in addition to Sony a (alpha) lens lineup - including the Carl Zeiss lenses.

The DSLR-A200K kit includes the camera body and a DT 18-70mm f3.5-5.6 3.9x zoom lens for about $700.

The DSLR-A200W kit includes the camera body, the DT 18-70mm lens and a 75–300mm f4.5-5.6 lens for about $900.
