Easy to use, easy to carry and offered at a very attractive price with its 18-70mm zoom lens, the Sony Alpha 200 is a dream camera for beginners who want to start enjoying all the benefits of D-SLR photography. Its 10.2 megapixel sensor delivers top quality images up to ISO 400 and beyond, and the autofocus system is fast and accurate.

I4U tested Sony Alpha DSLR-A200 and released a two-page detail review. They are happy with its 2.7″ inch large LCD, the 3fps continuous shooting and solid-accurate colors. They found digital noise at 800 and above and recommends user to avoid the 75-300mm bundled zoom.
TrustedReviews.com had the opportunity to test drive the Sony Alpha DSLR-A200 recently. A number of test were run including ISO performance test, details and exposure test.
Accodring to them:
At 1600 ISO the noise in the darker areas is very visible, and the noise reduction has softened the detail somewhat.
At the maximum 3200 ISO the noise is a lot more noticeable, but the sharpening algorithm has tidied up the edges of the black lettering.
