](http://www.cameralabs.com/reviews/Sony_Alpha_DSLR_A200/verdict.shtml)The Sony Alpha DSLR-A200 has been put in the spotlight by the folks over at Cnet. On reviewing the camera, Cnet found it to be "very good"  and give it a 7 out of 10 rating. The Sony Alpha DSLR-A200 was found to be a solid entry-level dSLR which renders reasonable  if somewhat warm or cool automatic white balance.

However at the end of the day the A200 doesn’t really hold a candle against Nikon D40x or Canon EOS Rebel XTi since images at times were noisy and the proprietary USB connector is a killjoy.

Says Cnet:
"This is the first entry-level camera we've seen in 2008, so it's quite possible that we'll be back to reevaluate the Sony Alpha DSLR-A200 more favorably in the context of its competition. But for now, there are better, more interesting models from earlier years whose prices are dropping into its territory"
