Good price for a solid camera & great lens. Too bad they use crappy memory sticks...

#1, this takes CF media which while not as nice (IMO) as SD, is still better than memory sticks. It comes with a CF to MS adapter, which makes me wonder if you could use a CF to SD adapter. Anyone know?

Edit: there seem to be lots of SD to CF adapters out there. Good to know.

I bought 4 A100's a few months ago, sold 3 on the bay, and kept one... and MADE $150 bucks.... What?

Sorny. lol

Be sure you also try out the other low end DSLRs like Canon EOS 400D, Nikon D40/D60, Sony A300 and other brands before you jump at this camera. Go to a local camera store and actually hold the cameras and see what the menu interface is like on them. Each has advantages and disadvantages which are mostly based on personal preference.
Also, if you are a first time DSLR buyer, do you *really* need a DSLR? Perhaps a very good point and shoot is easier to use and provides excellent results for most people. If you are not a technical person or patient learner, why spend the extra cash on features you will never use?
