Cheapest DSLR with body stabilisation, Sony A390 IBIS works with all A-mount including Minolta lenses.
The Sony Alpha A390 is a 14.2-megapixel entry-level APS-C DSLR from 2010 with built-in SteadyShot IBIS that stabilises every lens mounted on the camera. The body stabilisation provides a significant advantage over competing entry DSLRs that require stabilised lenses.
The built-in sensor-shift stabilisation works with all A-mount lenses including vintage Minolta glass, adding handheld capability to lenses never designed for stabilisation. The 14.2MP CCD sensor delivers pleasant colour, and the 9-point AF handles general focusing.
Build quality is compact Sony consumer with the comfortable grip and simple controls expected of an entry DSLR. The A-mount provides compatibility with both Minolta and Sony lenses spanning decades of optical heritage.
The A390 offers body stabilisation at the cheapest possible DSLR cost on the used market. The IBIS advantage with all A-mount lenses and the Minolta lens heritage provide genuine practical value at zero investment.
