mines just arrived today,,looking forward to using it,,i also have an a2 which i love and will keep using,,i have been a lifelong minolta user and was about to get a dynax 7 when the takeover took place,,i waited for the a100 and the reviews and it seems like sony have kept basically to the minolta tradition,,i found the controls so easy after my a2,,,really looking forward to putting it through its paces,,i got the camera with the 18-70 lens kit,,i will get different lenses later,,i got this because in the past with slrs i usually got a couple of lenses and a flash etc and spent so much time swapping lenses and flashes i never learned the camera properly,,now with just one lens i will do just that,,,good shooting
