hi guys. I'm thinking of buying an A290. Is it worth it? My budget is kinda tight, rm1.4-rm1.5k at most. I can't find good review for A290. Please any alpha members poison me

@8tvt,
which camera would you suggest?

@e-jump,
i've used d90 and 450d before, borrowed from my faculty for couple of times. and using it in manual mode

I think i'm quite serious about getting into photography. Been stalking and reading around since 2008/2009 but too bad doesnt have the budget. what model would you suggest me?

yeah.. figured that too. i don't mind the live view not a major thing for me.

found a used unit of a550 for 1.5-1.7k. a5xx series is considered as an intermediate model?

ok! got some people selling with lens for 1.7k or something. PMed them already lol. one more thing, is there like some sony made in japan, some made from other place and such? because got one thread says made in japan. most didnt state at all

oh. so its not really an issue is it?

p/s: thank you very much for the info

thats what i thought too

im looking for a5xx series too. which a5xx series is better? a550 not so many people selling T_T

@hiansitt,
true xD

@iamKiet
really?? aww.. really in dilemma now

@chahau,

found some sellers. pmed them but no response. maybe should wait for a while. errr im using my scholarship to buy xD so my budget is pretty much around that much only. wingster? can't find his username

@iamKiet,

dilemma between choosing which one to choose xD
true. but finding a550 sellers are quite hard. gotta wait for someone to sell then quickly buy later xD


thanks everyone for the input!
