Sony Alpha DSLR A290L 14.2 MP Digital SLR Camera Sony Alpha DSLR A290L 14.2 MP Digital SLR Camera with 18 55 Lens ReviewSony Alpha DSLR-A290L 14.2 MP Digital SLR Camera with 18-55 Lens. Sony ?; (alpha) DSLR-A290: more features, less blur. For family photographers who want greater quality and creativity, the Sony ?; (alpha) DSLR-A290 combines high-resolution 10.2 MP, simple operation, high sensitivity (ISO 3200), advanced noise reduction and convenient Creative Style settings. SteadyShot INSIDE in-camera image stabilization works with every lens, including Sony zoom, advanced Sony G-Series, pro-quality Carl Zeiss lens designs and Minolta ±-mount lenses. Stamina power provides up to 750 shots2 on a fully charged InfoLITHIUM battery. Eye-Start Autofocus and pop-up flash help you shoot faster — and a bright 2.7″1 LCD screen displays index and high-resolution thumbnail images.

Took my new A290 to the local park/aircraft museum & got really great photos with everything set to standard. A tree with grey/green foliage, came out looking 100% natural, where other cameras have not looked so good. Green grass looked perfect. Metering excellent, and white balance looked great when the white balance was left at auto.

This might have the same sensor as the Sony A380, but I think Sony have subtly tweaked the settings for jpegs as they look fantastic.
