>>262227A100 went in (in my market at least) priced as a D40 spec'd as a D80 but lets not get back into that.
No, let's get back into that because I like calling out bullshit.
Do you like telling yourself these lies to sleep better at night or do you prefer to sound stupid all the time?
The DSLR-A100 was introduced with a MSRP of $1,000 kit and $900 body.
The D40 was introduced with a MSRP of $500 kit. The D80 was introduced at $1,299 kit.
The prices get lower over time. The DSLR-A100 dropped to the $799 range and the D80 dropped to the $1,000 mark.
The DSLR-A100 was never meant to be competing with the D80 directly in the first place. It's there to offer more features than other entry level bodies from Nikon and Canon.
The DSLR-A100 doesn't have the larger, brighter pentaprism, the dual control wheels, the better-than-entry-level body construction, dual LCD screens.
The DSLR-A100 competes favorably when compared to the Nikon D40, D40x, D60 or Canon Rebel XT and XTi. You don't go and compare it to a higher priced camera.
>> This thread is made up of trolls and pissy canonfags upset that nikon and sony have stolen their cheap full frame thunder.
Hmm? Who has the most affordable digital full frame option now?
Nikon's D700 at $3,000. Sony's DSLR-A900 at $3,000. Canon's 5D II at $2,700.
Yeah, I'm sure Canon officials are crying over how Sony stole their thunder.
I will wait for your reply now. Please don't make it another horrible attempt at a farce.
