Last month I picked up a Sony A390 (with kit 18-55mm), mainly to use my little collection of A-Mount lenses from my Maxxum gear. I thought it would be a good thing to test the lenses out before I load the Maxxum bodies with film.
I really like the A390, it is easy to use, probably all I would ever need and the JPGs look very nice to me. However, just like many other older Sony bodies, the IS is broken. I am trying to decide if I want to work with it as-is, buy another A body and/or open this A390 up and attempt to repair, as I have seen some other users do with success.
This photo took about 6 attempts to get. I had to frame the tree trunk at the ground almost completely out in order to get it in with the IS issue. Perhaps zooming back a little and cropping is a better solution. But, honestly, I'm not much on cropping, unless the images stays at the same ratio.
