Sigh...if can't warranty sure forced to buy a new lens. ZA may be?

Thx, btw, if looking for replacement lens, definitely not kit lens anymore, pictures not sharp enough for my eyes.

Wait and send for warranty first.

New alpha dslr, don't know if someone posted before?

This is wat I worried, so far, when i turn the focus ring, it will "kick" at both end of rotation...When AF is on, the sounds is very terrible, is like a gear is keep spinning on another non-spinning gear.

Just now hand itchy, go take few shots, ah, now rest in my bag already. Gonna take it to claim warranty on tomorrow. Should I bring both camera and lens to go?

I have the same idea as you. Release cameras that replace A700 and many ppl from A200-350 can consider upgrade to it. Ah, I want live view, sometimes not convenient while wearing spectacles.

Added on May 3, 2009, 7:53 pmWell, last time I also send my a200 to service just because of dusts, I found it rather time consuming and finally bought myself a blower.
For dslr users, we should really consider to get ourself a blower.

If there is some stubborn dust particles, even you bring it to service center, they also can't help you to clean it 100%. I myself sent to service center and the technician said that it is impossible to remove the dust 100%.

My advice, get a good giant blower for RM40-50 and clean it by your own.

Dude, don't worry. I had the same case as you. I lost my receipt as well! I just send the camera to service center and they got the details of warranty of your camera. For few times I also never bring my receipt or warranty card. Bring yourself and camera and it would be done. Warranty and service from Sony are great, fast and reliable.

Added on May 3, 2009, 8:14 pmBTW, always give it a try, you won't lose anythings. A phone call is good as well.

Sry, I forgot to put a statement. When you purchase your cam, did you fill in the warranty card and post to sony via yourself or the shop?
I got fill up the card and registered my a200 online but their details of warranty is based on my online registration. Hope I make it clear for you.

Note: the details of warranty is printed on the paper of service of my a200. I register it a day after I purchase.

Haha, I face this problem same as finalfantasy before. I believe many of you also experience that. Just key in DSLRA200K (for single lens) or DSLRA200W (for twin lens).
