Got this camera new at ebay a few days ago.
Have tested it. Decided to send it back.
Camera feels a bit cheap, too much plastic.
Manual zoom is fine.
AF is slow and sluggish, even with spot AF.
But the most annoying thing is that the LCD has a long blackout after shooting a single pic (and even longer if shooting a burst - and then the camera locks up).
So you often will miss some snapshots.
Even my KoMi Dimage Z2 which was cheaper and uses only SD cards is faster and the blackout is not so long.
Also the A200 tends to some overexposure.
RAW files are big and slow to write.
Movie quality isn´t the best, ok, this camera is old...but some niggles are even for such an old camera a shame.
So I don´t wonder why KoMi wents bankrupt.
IQ is ok, but not whopping. ISO50 perfect usable, ISO100 ok, ISO200 better than nowadays cmaeras with tiny chips, above not really nice like the mos non-DSLR-cameras.
Problems:
- slow
- slow
- slow
- annoying blackout
- did I mentioned that it is slow?
