In 35mm equivalent, it covers wide-angle 27mm to 105mm midrange telephoto for snapshots, portraits, interiors and more an excellent all-around lens to travel with.The Sony a (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera is an instant classic: the top-quality 10 MP DSLR system camera that builds on a two-decade legacy of Minolta photographic leadership, accepts 20 years of A-mount lenses sold worldwide, and introduces Sony imaging innovations like high-sensitivity shooting with Super SteadyShot in-camera image stabilization, Dynamic Range Optimizer to automatically increase detail in bright and dark picture areas, new Anti-Dust technology to keep the CCD imager clean for better pictures, and Eye-Start Autofocus system for faster camera response. A large, 23.6 x 15.8 mm APS-C-size CCD imager with Sony s advanced design allows more light to pass to each pixel, increasing sensitivity and reducing noise, and providing greater detail when you make big prints or crop in close on your subject. The Sony Super SteadyShot system automatically reduces image blur. And because it works in-camera, you ll get the benefit of Super SteadyShot stabilization with every lens you use. With high-sensitivity (ISO 1600) shooting, the Sony a (alpha) DSLR-A100 camera captures great photos without flash even in low light, which makes it an ideal system camera for shooting without a tripod or in locations (like museums and churches) where flash is prohibited.
