Is Sony giving Canon and Nikon a run for their money?




Trixie


Popular Photography's 2011 camera of the year is the Nex-7 and the article says that its closest competition among the runners up was the a77. Last year the top spot went to the a55. It seems IMO that Sony is really coming out with innovations and listening to what consumers want, plus they are focusing more on the consumer and pro-sumer models which is where the biggest market is right now and which will continue to grow as digital camera prices drop.

Dansy, until Sony over take (or take over) Nikon (at the current rate of market share growth that will be in around 6 to 7 years!) you'll never convince people. You will convince them when you use your DSLT to shoot flawless video, or just get the High Speed Sync to work flawlessly off camera with nothing other than the camera and flash unit.

Regards Sony making inroads into non-DSLR cameras, they already account for almost 90% of the sensors used in such cameras (most Nikon's and even some Canon's). *This figure may include the sensor units in mobile phones.

There's a lot more cross-fertilization of ideas among the manufacturers than the users often think. One of Sony's new sensors relies on cross patenting with Fujifilm, Sigma, and Kodak.

*I fully expect to get slated for this reply
** I'm a trained technologist, and now that Sony has a decent range of lenses for their crop sensor cameras I honestly think they are a better starting point than Canon and Nikon. I will admit if Sony want to be take seriously for full frame cameras they really need to work on the lens range for that segment.

Is it good for this price? its second hand (was used) 152 pounds?



Answer
You really need a fully adjustable camera for "photography". Photography implies that you want to control everything about the images you are shooting and for that you will need either a good used 35 mm SLR or a dSLR camera.

A beginner is a beginner. It does not matter if you are 16 or 60, female or male. They all work the same and are NOT gender specific nor does it matter the age of the user

Nikon and Canon are the most plentiful of all the used cameras, so look for a 35 mm SLR with lens for less than £70.

You may not find a dSLR for less than £152 but maybe close to that. Look for a camera like the Nikon D40 or D60 with 18-55 mm lens or a Canon XT with the same lens.
