Sony A900 Review by DPReview:
In conclusion this is, more than anything else at this end of the market, a true photographer’s camera, with at least one totally unique feature (the Super SteadyShot stabilization) and one that offers the best viewfinder and highest nominal resolution (and the lowest ‘cost per megapixel, incidentally) in its class. It’s capable of stunning results at up to ISO 400 (and is fine at ISO 800-1600 as long as you’re not printing posters), and it is incredibly fast and responsive in use. If Sony had managed to keep the price nearer to the $2000 mark (even if this meant fewer megapixels) I think it would be flying off the shelves. As it stands it will, I fear, struggle to make a serious impression on anyone other than the Sony/Minolta faithful. One thing is clear, however: anyone who thinks a consumer electronics giant can’t make a heavyweight photographic tool is seriously misguided.

Nikon D90 Review by Camera Labs
So the D90 won’t replace your camcorder, but it could complement it very well. Given a lens with a bright focal ratio, it can excel under low light while also delivering shallow depth of field effects. You could alternatively fit other types of lenses for special effects. It’s all about learning the D90’s foibles and working around them. Do this and you can have great fun with the video mode, but try and use it as a normal camcorder and you will be disappointed.
The earlier D80 was one of the best-performing 10 Megapixel DSLRs we’ve tested, and when fitted with the (admittedly superior) DX 18-70mm lens, is only a very small step behind its successor when equipped with its kit lens. In tests with other models we’ve also only measured subtle differences between 10 and 12 Megapixel DSLRs, so existing D80 owners shouldn’t upgrade to the D90 expecting a noticeably higher degree of resolved detail.

“The Sony DSLR-A200 is a solid overall performer that does not have any major flaws (AF button issue aside) and comes with a feature set that is more than adequate for its very attractive price point. Therefore it just earns our Highly Recommended badge.”
