The Sony a100 is a good DSLR value for money compared to it's Nikon or Canon rivals in its class of 10MP DSLRs. It is not a camera for beginners or those who does not have sound knowledge of basic film photography. Good knowledge of aperture, exposure, colour temperature and shutter speed are essential for good results with the a100 when the AUTO mode do not give the result expected. I have no regrets buying the a100 where I always get the results that I wanted and at times beyond my expectation. In low light and high speed, shots should be better on tripods and fast lenses.
