I wanna buy: Sony A350 DSLR

Options
Hi

I want to get a decent starter DSLR and I have read good things about the Sony A350, I have been looking around and found the best price to be £350 with a lens (SAL-1870) 18mm to 70mm. I want to know if a better price was achievable... and will consider better pricing after cashback from Quidco etc

    Have you tried this site? http://camerapricebuster.co.uk/cat33.html It's useful but don't depend on it exclusively as some retailers never appear on it. I usually check there and then google the camera model to see what else comes up. Then I check the cashback sites to see what if any cashback the different places are offering.

    That modelonly seems to be in stock at one place on camerabuster ( and about £100 more than you've found already) so I'm wondering if it's an older/discontinued model?

    also check out the nikon d5000, you will find that it also got excellent reviews.


    trawled through many sites, before i finally selected this one for myself.

    The A350 has been replaced by the A380.
