What's Hot: Returned My Nikon D-80 after trying the A-100. Better features and excellent results.
What's Not: Sony lenses are overpriced compared to Canon and Nikon.

Review: I had just purchased the Nikon D-80 when I read about the Sony being picked Camera of the Year in Pop Photo. So I bought the Sony as well and tried them both for a couple of weeks. Results were excellent with both cameras but the Sony features really sold me. They've done away with the status LCD that is always hard to read. I'll bet Nikon does the same in the near future. Serious camera stores however don't seem to be convinced yet as the Sony is new.Biggest disappointment is the higher cost of Sony lenses and accessories. Oh yes...I returned the D-80 to the store.
