theyre pretty good for the price. minolta made alot of good lenses. i myself had an a100 and moved to the 700. these were my first dslrs.

the reviews i have read say that they are good value for the money. not for pros but it should be ok to get me started. are there any nikons or canons that would be a similar spec for the price

Good for the money, until you start buying Sony's overpriced lenses.

all those cameras are about another 150-200 pounds more. a bit out of my price range for my first SLR

Get the A200.

You can get amazing Minolta glass on ebay for really cheap. (Go look right now, it's also called maxxum )

Profit.

don't think you have to go Canon or Nikon. The comparable bodies from both suck compared to the same range Sony bodies.
