I've been looking for something to replace my Konica Minolta A2, which I've never really been happy with. I don't want to spend the money yet on what I really want, a Nikon DSLR, so I thought I'd find something for the interim. I looked at Nikon P90 and Canon G10, but then saw that the Sony A230L DSLR seems like a very good value. It can be had for $400 with kit lens.
What I am wondering, and I'm hoping someone out there is knowledgeable of this, is how well the older Minolta SLR lenses work with this camera. My old Minolta lenses are from my SRT days and I suspect not at all compatible with the A230. How can I tell what lenses are compatible and in what ways? AF, aperature control, etc.
Thanks much,
Mike L.
