i also did try some sony like A200, A330, A550, A700 and i think its a great gadget for start up just ISO noise quite bad compare to other brand in same category. (just my opinion la alpha user dont shoot me~!)

most of sony i tried with cheapo lens only except 50mm F2 carl zeiss. i cant say much about sony pro lens but still with cheapo lens, i still able to get it right with speedlite. btw i freaking love sony speedlite~! the rotation damn cool~!

surprisingly NEX was been compare with D90 haha
