Hi All,

I am deciding between A550 vs 550D. reviews seems to be leaning towards 550D. This will be my first SLR. What I worry about is that Canon seems to have reliability issues with their Error 99. but then again, they have 3 yrs warranty. How reliable is the Sony SLRs?

Please share biggrin.gif

Thank you

well, you're definitely going to lean on to one brand. and as u buy that certain brand, ull get attached.

i would say both are pretty on par albeit the 550D is abit better at controlling noise and is more feature-packed.

with that said, it all boils down to which camera u have a connection with.

u dont have to follow what the majority of the market tells u to buy. icon_rolleyes.gif

wingster , thanks for the extensive reply biggrin.gif... very enlightening. For me the main downside of 550D is the worry about Error 99.. do you have experience to share?

Thank you

heizad : It's really a bargain if you dont mind on outward appearance. What's important is inside, isn't it? Lenses are same like girls lo. No point getting a lens that is so pretty on the outside but everything inside is cheap. Sorry just got into a bad breakup.

woah... the girl from the only TT that ive joined to date? sorry to hear...


anywho, my poor haul:

IR Filter Massa, Tiffen Polerizer, and Bagman 7mdh.. all second hand. haha.

Another "dummy" model keh? Hope they could at least improve the IQ on the body otherwise, most people would prefer NEX or A550 over these 2 model .... = = and I dunno why Sony always think Less Is More? =/

Good for people who doesn't wanted the uncomfy grip on the previous A230 A330 and A380 model, other than that I have no idea

i think sony is smart.. gather more new users and grow a steady group of followers.

but i think the alpha is in dire need of a a7xx successor and 1 more FF.
