Canon Rebel XTi vs Nikon D80 vs Sony Alpha A100
Digitalinfo published a review concerning these three SLRs. It takes the Canon Rebel XTi, the Nikon D80, and the Sony Alpha A100 and compares them side by side.There are choices for the photographer who wants a combination of manual and automatic options in a 10-megapixel sub-$1000 DSLR.
“When Sony announced the 10-megapixel Sony Alpha A100, with dust control and image stabilization in a sub-$1000 kit, it seemed as though other camera makers were going to have to adjust their prices or their products radically.
But still, why spend $50 more for a Canon or $250 more for a Nikon with seemingly fewer features than the Alpha? Both cameras have as important advantages over the Alpha as they have disadvantages. Both are laid out better – the left hand control dial on the Alpha is odd and slower at everything than the XTi and D80 alternatives.
There will be plenty of buyers for each camera, and many happy owners all around. The cameras are not equivalent, though, and their differences are reflected in price, appropriate owners and features. The Sony Alpha A100 is intended for buyers who don’t plan to buy more advanced equipment soon. The Canon certainly could be, and the Nikon is not just an entry camera, it’s an appropriate backup body for prosumers and pros on a budget.”
