Nope- I went to Staples and bought mine straight from the store!

I just bought the new Sony a100 10.2MP D-SLR so I needed to get some and have held back because the prices were just outrageous.

Well I have 2 of em now!

muwhahahahahaapost up a few pics using the alpha if you hadn't already! I've been looking into one but the saving alone in the 2 lenses I need would pay to get a Canon 30D and some L-glass

I snapped a few with an Alpha the other day, I love the shutter sound on those things LOL!!!

Thats not a bad price at all. I need to go get one.

[imbosile]

I think I saw where there was one other format that was the same price. The ones that are about the same size but flat.....XD I think.

I picked me up one. That was a good price not to pass it up. Thanks again. :goodjob:

OOOO....I may need to check into this.

I bought it mainly because I had a few lenses for my Minolta Maxxum 7000 that fit directly on the a100. It also had some GREAT reviews since its basically a modified Minolta 5D, which was a modified 7D.

Anyway- its a nice camera for the price Wolf had it for a few weeks ago.

I havent had a chance to really go out and do a photo shoot. Its mainly been pics of my dog & stuff around the house... LOL

I need to buy an auxillary flash soon too so my indoor pics turn out better. The pull-up flash leaves a lot to be desired-- but it does the job.
